Hi, I've been using this site for help and advice for almost a year now but have never posted. The posts that have been written have helped me so much with my anxiety and i really don't know how i would have coped without you all! I suppose i should tell you about myself (sorry if i go on).
I am 36 and married with 3 lovely kids. I have always been a worrier and worry about worrying! If my husband is five minutes late from work i panic and think so many things that could have happened (never that the traffic is bad on the motorway!) I started having panic attacks last year out of the blue and now i think i have health anxiety. Every twinge or tingle is something major and of course i'm going to die and leave my kids. my latest thing is that i have MS i get lots of numbness and pins and needles in my hands and feet and more recently my legs. Of course i googled it and came up with MS! I wish i could just ignore the symptoms because i know i felt like this when i first started with the panic attacks and the symptoms stoppped when i calmed down. sorry i said i wasn't going to waffle!
Thanks for reading:hugs:
