Alienation symptoms and conditions

I'm 28 years old woman...
I was prescribed Ulcerative Colitis 5 years ago. I have been on prednisone 4 or 5 times since then for periods of three to four months experiencing the typical symptoms and side effects. I had a new flare up and 2 weeks ago my doctor prescribe prednisone again, but this time he told me to take 40 mg a day for 7 days and then stop it, TOTALLY.
He said that it was safe and even better than the old strategy of reducing the dosage slowly over a 2-3 months period, so I accepted.
I've never felt so bad in my life, not even when I was a moody teenager.
These days I have felt so miserable, so depressed...I am an optimistic person, really positive and easygoing but these last three days I have changed completely: anguish, anxiety, panic, alienation, it's like living in someonelse's body,...
Yesterday morning I couldn't go to work, I just sat for breakfast and start crying in front of my boyfriend in a desperate way...I spent two hours crying because I couldn't establish a connection between my body and me, I felt that I was trapped in a strange body...
The funny thing is that my doctor doesn't really acknowledge these sensations, he thinks that the emotional distress is due to sth else and not prednisone!
Apart from that, my bones, muscles and joints hurt terribly...

If you feel depressed, prepare herbal tea. It cleans your body and your sprit. Good options are mint and lemon zest, orange zest and chamomile

Hi - I've been off now for around 3 months. Pleased to say that my initial mood swings of coming off/alienation etc... have gone but the problem now is acne and really greasy skin. Has anyone else experienced this and does it clear up? As I am thinking about going back on Yasmin as I can't cope with the acne. It's on my chin, scalp and breasts - but painful sore lumps rather than zits. Any natural/herbal treatments for acne?
