Difficulty in blocking noises around while concentrating, exaggerated fears, fear of punishment and rejection. On medication. Help
Patient: I cannot seem to block out the music in restaurants. Drives me crazy even if it is barely audible. I can't stand music even classical in Clinic waiting rooms. I cannot stand conversations happening around me while driving.  I cannot seem to block out any unwanted noise while trying to concentrate. Am i autistic ? As a caretaker It drives me crazy if someone leaves fabric or any potentially flammable object on a light fixture even if it is safe life a fluorescent bulb. Exaggerrated fears? As I child I was severely strapped for things I don't even know why.  I think I made noise and my dad couldn't concentrate on what he wanted to do. Hey I was a kid. Kids make noise. I am 58 and fear some kind of punishment or something bad is going to happen. I am a people pleaser not because I care but because I fear rejection or punishment.  I feel I need some rational thoughts pumped into me all day. Left to myself I have no choice but try meds. Doctor: Hi, it appears that you have some problem with your mood. I advise you to consult a psychiatrist for diagnosis and treatment.                            I also advise you to check the hypertension and blood sugar which also may show such changes.  Anemia, and hypoprotenimia  also may cause these changes, so i advise you to take more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and proteine rich foods. Thank you.
