Well heres my story....
Started having palpitations last year passed out and BANNNNGG..... panic attacks galore i didnt even no thats what they were thought i was dying... had ECG's and blood tests the doctor said it was anxiety. Then slowly came the health anxiety.. I did get a lot better after some cognitive behavioural therapy but the good times only lasted 4 months and back it came like a bad smell... iv had another bout of CBT but i dont feel like its work im not having so much of the full blown panic attacks anymore (touch wood) but the health anxiety is rampant....
I feel like a crazy person i want to scan and check my pulse, i workin in a hospital so i want to check my blood pressure all the time and get the midwives to take my blood so i cant see if theres any abnormalities i haven't done yet and im trying to stop my self so much but its so hard....
every symptom or sensation i just want to cry... Palpitations, light headed is the worst one and i almost feel a bit woozy like i cant concentrate properly i think all sorts of things like my heart isnt beating strong enough, so not enough oxygen is getting to my head thats why im light headed, something is wrong with my heart, iv got a brain tumour or somethings growing in my head...
I dont no how to cope anymore i just want to stay in bed and cry all the time.. i guess i just dont want to feel alone anymore nobody truely understands :(
sorry for the long post guys :(
