Hiya,
I'm cupcake and I've been suffering with GAD for about 3 months now. I always had anxiety really but only now has it worsened and is no longer under control. I wake up every day feeling like I'm going to die or that something is seriously wrong with me. So far I've diagnosed myself with a brain tumour, glaucoma, MS, anaemia, leukaemia, Lyme's disease, heart disease (and attacks) and gall stones. None of which I actually have. I have. Job, rent a house, own a car, rabbit, a husband and some children but still everyday the anxiety is relentless. I worry about things that have happened, the things that might happen, the things that will happen and the things that wouldn't happen, I worry about EVERYTHING. Physical symptoms wise, I suffer with: head aches, bubbling/popping/tingling/burning/itching in my head, heart palpitations, heart slowing down, heart flutterings, feeling like my heart js double beating, heart missing a beat, heart pounding, crushing feeling in chest (and head sometimes too), feeling like I've got a bruised breastbone, bubbling
in chest, buzzing in head and body, I get dizzy easily, feel like when I'm looking at things they are unreal, slight blurred vision in my right eye, sometimes my pupils are different sizes and I'm tired all of the time!!!
Medical procedures wise I've had: a full set of bloods, 3 ECGs, a pregnancy test, a chest x-ray, 2 sugar level tests, an eye test, hearing test and numerous trips to A&E and the doctors and I've had an emergency response team sent to my house at 2.30 in the morning.
So that's me! I look forward to talking to you and fighting anxiety and panic together : ) x
