i have health anxiety but have illnesses too

[bluebellgirl]

hi i'm bluebell.. i dont know if i'm in the right place as i am ill..i have m.e., autoimmune hypothyroid ( im on t3 and t4), low estrogen, low progesterone, high fsh, which is indicating premature manopause, according to the endo.

I am so anxious about my health as i have so many symptoms, and i am constasntly feeling like im dying.
however i also have mental health probs.. ptsd, bpd so my symptoms are often being blamed on my mental health.

i'm just so scared about my health but i do have bad anxiety too

Hi there,

Firstly, WELCOME aboard!! yeah your in the right place hun.

Anxiety is bad enough on it's own but when you have the added worry of health anxiety on top of that, it can be very overbearing at times. As a sufferer myself, i understand how difficult it can be.

I hope you find the site helpfull and make lots of lovely new friends too.

Best of luck
