Does anyone else's anxiety go through the roof when they're sick?
I've caught what seems to be a common cold from my son and my anxiety has gotten worse. I obviously feel ill and tired but I also have aches and just feel generally weak - all these symptoms are sending my anxiety sky high, I keep checking my temperature (which is fine) and worrying that it's something more serious masking itself as a cold even though I know my son has been snotty all week.
One thing that's caused me anxiety is that I had a one off bout of diarrhoea quite suddenly last night, I don't know if it's caused by the cold or the excess adrenaline but it's gotten me worried.
I'm working hard to keep the panic under control and hopefully it'll pass soon.
