Like most people who get on top of their HA for a while, I stopped visiting this site regularly. Now I find I'm back and not just that, i'm googling and checking and obsessing.
I'm nowhere near as bad as I was at my worst last year but I feel like an alcoholic who's had a drink for allowing myself to slide back into the state I am in.
The main focus (i also diagnose several heart attacks and cancers etc each week) of my HA is a succession of strange sensations (pain, tingling, cramping) in my left lower leg but I guess I need to stop thinking about that and accept anxiety is the main problem.
I think I came off anti-depressants too early and jumped back into a stressful business (over and above my day job) situation after extricating myself from such environments as I sought to get over my problems last year.
But I was feeling better so why shouldn't I have done that? Or so i thought. The problems didn't reappear immediately but I suppose I look back now and see this building for the past few months.
Back to getting on a plan, familiarising myself with my mantra again, removing myself from stressful situations and remembering that, like addiction, this is something that will be with me (us) our whole lives and that we can only ever manage it.
