Hi all,
I'm not a diagnosed anxiety person but I know I have it (and OCD too), today I am having a bad one. Currently my husband is out on his works Christmas do, which I don't have a problem with. My problem lies in him getting home...I know he will be drunk and we live about 12 miles from where he is out so will entail a train journey home plus a 30min walk from the station. I have had bad feelings all day, and not being able to concentrate. I worry about something happening to him getting home, or him not coming home at all (which has never happened before), I worry about what I would do and who I would contact to help me. Its not the first time I have felt like this, I do most of the time. He went to our local supermarket the other day and because he took slightly longer than what I thought I was already imagining him having crashed the car! I worry about him on his commute to work etc etc.
Is there anyone out there that can help these awful feelings and thoughts ? Or just tell me I am not being stupid and mad.
thanks Claire
