I've had anxiety problems all my life on and off but it got worse when I was heavily pregnant, I started to panic about getting PND and wanting to harm myself or my baby as a result of having it. I then had a bad birth where I got flashbacks and panic attacks for a few months after, they died down but the anxiety stayed with me and the fear of PND stayed and then turned to a fear of severe depression and psychosis. This got worse a few months ago where my closest friend became suicidal! Sing then I cannot calm down and I recently got engaged to the man I have been with for 6years and we have a son together. A week or so after that I starting d to panic about if I was attracted to my fiancé and have now got a fear that I mihlght leave him as I get anxious around him in case I don't find him attractive! Does this all sound lime just GAD to you? I'm worried that its some sort of ocd aswell. I love my fiancé lots and I know that attraction isn't the main thing in a relationship and I don't want to be without him but I keep obsessing on these thoughts! I've just started a n medication and feel worse on it a week in and have a group CBT course lined up to help. I would like to here about if anyone has been in a similar situation or can relate to my thought? And recovery. Thanks
