Hi all,
Just found this site and thought i'd give it a shot. Did't realise other people felt the same as me.
I've always worried about my health for as long as i can remember but it wasn't until November last year i had my first panic attack just after my Grandad passed away. Since then i've had a few attacks and am constantly worrying about dying and every pain/ache that i have is going to kill me. I've been to my GP and told i'm suffering from health anxiety and have been to a self help councellor.
My Grandma passed away a few weeks ago and the attacks have been more frequent and i've been suffering with headaches since the funeral, went to the GP and its tension-type headache but to me it's a tumour.
I don't have attacks every day but i do think i have an illness everyday i can read an article in a magazine or hear someone's story and then i have the ilness that i've just read about
I can't keep living like this and can't see myself getting any better but don't think anyone around me really understands.
Think i have written a bit too much hope it's not too boring
