Hi all
I'm a newbie to the site, well I have been reading the posts for a while but finally got the courage to post, I'm 29 year old with 2 little girls who are my world, I started with my anxiety back in 2008, I have always been an nervous anxious person but it all came to a head after my brother died of liver failure at 23, this was not expected I was only 21 myself, I found it so hard to deal with it and so scared, the same year my uncle died of a brain hemorrage, this is when my health anxiety started so worried about myself my girls my husband my parents, not just the health anxiety that's mainly me but totally irrational thoughts like car crashes, illnesses, so scared I would lose someone else or that I would leave my girls with out a mum, some times the fear over takes me, it seems to come in bouts I can be ok ( well function reasonably normally ) then other times like at the moment I feel like I'm going to die, I get so many symptoms, chest pain, heavy left arm, back pain, nausea the list is endless, I feel like I'm in a cycle that I just can't break, I know I don't have much to contribute to the site but I just wanted to post how much of a help it its to me and introduce myself 😄
