Feel horrible

I don't know what to to with myself. I'm going on holiday tommorrow and I feel awful. Have been so for the last week, had some problems with my ex and realised I'm not over him at all, feels like I'm having delayed reaction to us breaking up because when it actually happened I felt fine. Now I feel so sad and listless, have not been eating properly because everything makes my stomach hurt, and not sleeping well. My head feels full the whole time, I can't relax and am totally on edge. Yesterday when I was in the car going out felt like I was about to have a panic attack - my chest was tight, couldn't breath properly, felt sick and dizzy and faint. Just don't have the motivation to do anything and am scared I am going back into a depressive state which I suffered from a few years ago, and have been mostly ok since then. Don't know what to do because I really don't want to feel like this when I'm away, I don't want my friends to have this miserable person who can't crack a smile when they're going to enjoy themselves -as I intended to. I can't get out of going away; I worked all summer to afford this holiday, and deep down I know I do really want to go but everything seems so horrible at the moment I just feel like crawling back into bed and staying there. What do I do, this couldn't have happened at a worse time. :frown:

To be honest a holiday sounds like exactly what you need... think of it as time away where you dont have to think about anything, and that you'll probably feel a whole lot better about things by the time you come back!
