Hi Everyone! :blush:

Just thought I'd post in here so some of you guys will no what you're dealing with next time I post about some miniscule problem that seems to me to be the end of the world! Lol! :doh:

I'm Amy - 27 years old (26 and 4 quarters in my head though... I don't like the sound of 27! Lol!) and I live in Bristol with my partner of 9 years and my 2 kids - Boy of 7 and Baby Girl 14 months.

I came to the realisation a couple of weeks ago that I have an anxiety problem... Constant worries about my health (even as I type), constantly having to focus on my breathing as I seem to be sighing constantly otherwise I feel like I'm not getting enough air into my lungs... :whistles:

My usual hang up is my heart - I always feel like there's a problem - any ache, pain or twinge I'll put down to my heart getting ready to give out at any moment.:weep:

My Dad died unexpectedly in January, and whilst I've always been a bit of a hypochondriac, it's definitely kicked up a gear since my Dad passed away.

Since I came across this site though I'm feeling much better!! Seeing how other people are dealing with what I've been experiencing makes me feel somewhat "normal"! Lol!

Anyway - that's me... Constantly worried about dropping dead, feeling like I can't breath properly, hates uneven numbers and can't stand being late anywhere Amy! :emot-wave:
