28 year old mum with health anxiety.

[kayc]

Hi everyone

I'm 28 year old mum of one, and have suffered from health anxiety for approximately 3 years.

Before this I suffered from panic attacks from about aged 20 but gradually overcame them with relaxation/distraction/control techniques and 3 years ago seemed to substitue the panic attacks for health anxiety, lol, not too sure which is worse!!!

Would love to e-mail others, so if what you know about me so far hasn't put you off, lol, get in touch.

Its hard work isnt it, I am a mother of three little ones and I am sat here at the moment having a good cry. Feels such a struggle at times, but we must all focus on the positive and take little steps to help ourselves.
Best of luck to you.

Hi kayc, I too am 28 mum of one with another on the way, I started with panic attacks and depression about 2 years ago but last year it changed to health anxiety and its the most horrible thing to cope with, when you actually believe you are dying there is nothing anyone can do or say to make you think otherwise! one day we will look back at our lives and wonder why we wasted so much of it worrying about nothing
