[quote=Anonymous]How are your stress levels? Are you generally sincerely happy about where you're at in life? I'm not trying to project here, as your situation could be totally different. But I had something very similar to what you're describing happen to me about 13 years ago. I was tested for everything...under...the...sun. Thyroid, all the other tests you're describing, you name it, even HIV despite never having had unprotected sex in my entire life, I was tested for it. I was absolutely stunned each time another test came back in the normal range. Something felt so wrong with my body. My level of exhaustion was profound, it was like my body was shutting down on me. I even ended up in the hospital one time for two days with completely weird symptoms - weird abdominal and back pains, body getting hot like I was overheating, nearly fainting... That all sparked more tests, CT scans, GYN ultrasounds and whatnot. My jaw would twitch like I was sort of shivering. Horrible. In any case, I had a complete nervous breakdown about six months after my stint in the hospital. The pressure of every aspect of my life turned out to just be too much. I was a perfectionist with high standards for myself and I was so unhappy with how things were going. It took me about one year of intense psychiatric care (was outpatient, 3 or 4 times per week) to get back on my feet. I didn't have anything like BPD or some sort of disorder...I just a case of utterly massive, catastrophic amounts of anxiety and depression. Before this incident in my life, I never would have believed that mental health issues could manifest themselves so physically. I'm not saying it's that bad, and I'm not saying you're nuts...and don't answer this here because people on this board are mean about this stuff...just ask yourself if you're happy about where you are in you're life. Do you have a supportive and committed partner? Do you feel lonely? Are you ambivalent about children and feel you need to figure it out RIGHT NOW because of your age? Do you want children but don't have them? Do you feel like your career isn't what you had hoped it would be? Did you have a rough upbringing and now feel alone as people are pairing off? I ask these questions because I think for women who don't feel truly settled mid-30s can be rough. [/quote]
