I am so glad I came across this site. im 32 and I suffer from irrational and horrible thoughts which pop up in my head for no reason (have done since I was 16/17), especially at night, this has always been a problem for me, it had subsided for the past 5 or 6 years but came back this pregnancy (my baby is now 4 weeks old)...which makes me finally realise that my fears and depression for years are to do with my hormone levels.
About 7 weeks into my pregnancy I suffered a few panic attacks at night when I thought the world was going to end, or there was going to be a massive earthquake and every little noise i heard my ears and senses and heartbeat would go into overdrive... it was the scariest lonliest feeling i have ever felt and never wish to experience again and am scared that these episodes will come back again.
Just lately I worry about everything and am fearful for the future, especially for my kids, the thing I am fearful of just lately is the environment and the hadron particle collider experiment.It is really getting me down as I should be grateful for the good things in my life but I just cant seem to lighten up!, the only way i used to deal with these scary feelings is drinking heavily and partying and socialising.
...I can be watching tv and then get a sudden thought of the room exploding or if I read or watch something in the news that is disturbing I cant get it out of my head. I have been on medication for depression for years but came off them about 2 years ago.
sorry have loads i could go on about!!but baby needs me now, bye for now:whistles:
