Good Evening Everyone,
I am new the Forum i am 24 year old Female and i am a new mum to my 4 month and 3 week old daughter Olivia-Rose.
I have been suffering with Health Anxiety for 3 years.
I had talk therapy to start then caught pregnant with my daughter and it finished because i thought it had gone.
Then i had my daughter and baby blues kicked in only the anxiety came with it. It has come back with a vegence.
The last 4 months have been hell its suppose to be the best time of my life yet i have let anxiety ruin it. I have IBS and Gastric Reflux which do not help me at all. I get a lot of trapped wind in my upper gut and i feel like i can not breath. I am convinced i have cancer or something and the doctors have missed it.
Today has been my worst day to date i have got this weird feeling in my head it feels like something is draining down for the top of my head to the tips of my toe. My neck is all tight and my shoulders. I have been getting really bad shivers throughout my body.
I get lightheaded all the time and i am always exhausted come 1pm. I also can not eat because my stomach churns so much?
I have a daughter and it is killing me that she is missing out on my attention because my head is somewhere else everyone around me my support network work all day so i am on my own and i think what if something happens to me? I cant do this anymore i cry all the time and sit and dwell on symptoms that arent there.
If anyone else has simular symptoms i would love to hear from you.
