Hi All
I used this forum about a year ago when I had really bad general anxiety which made me really ill at the time. I got slightly better although still had the odd feelings of panic. My biggest problem is my what has become almost an obsession with death and dying, I look at the newpapers about people who have died suddenly to see what they died of and if I can relate it to any symtoms that I have, if I hear of someone being ill or dying I wnat to know what they died of and the symptoms. (this sounds awful when I write it down) I have an awful dread of getting seriously ill and dying.
Anyway what all this obsession has led to is the start of my anxiety again. I havehad really bad headaches & dizziness over the past few weeks, (of course i have diagnosed myself with a brain tumour already). Then the panics have started when I am shopping and I have to get out of the shop right away. I have been feeling awful at work all day and just counting the hours to go home.
I don't know why I am like this I have a good job, nice home and family but I can feel the anxiety creeping back as bad as ever.
How can I get over this obsession with death and dying.:(
