new and need advice.

[Linny]

i found this site this morning and i can't believe how much i relate to stuff on here!

i am very fearful of my kids being ill
i blush
i imagine horrible accidents happening
i feel like people are looking at me in the street
i hardly ever go out anymore with my partner as i am too scared of leaving my kids with relatives.

i have been this way for a long time and have tried as much as possible to ignore it and get onwith things. in fact i don't think anyone can tell.

question is, do i carry on like this only living half the life i could be or do i go for some medication? or is there something else i should be doing?
please help!

Hi CBT could help. You could give No Panic a ring and see what they can offer. Pm me if you want the number...
Hope you get better soon:D

Take care

Hi Linny, I agree with Chuckle that CBT may be the way to go intitially and see how you fare. There are natural remedies that can help you if you are willing to give them a go, some are better than others - Kalms are good, they are quite mild and take time to build up in your system. valerian and passiflora are also calming too. Burn some lavendar oil and do some relaxtion that could help too.

Take care
