I just recently left home and started University and ever since around 1 week before I moved out, I've had all kinds of crap going on with my body. I'm not the greatest social person so my initial worries were of meeting new people but all my flatmates are nice people so those worries have since subsided. However I've now started seriously worrying about my health.
My symtoms:
Chest Pains (sometimes left, sometimes right, at the moment around the centre)
Light head
Headaches
Dizzyness
Increase in bowel movements
Various abdominal pains (none of these recently)
Fear of cancer, heart attack or death each time something happens.
Loss of appetite
Disturbed sleep pattern
Of course, each time one of these happens, I start worrying about it and it just gets worse, usually if I can forget about them, occupy myself or talk to someone about them they will soon ease or vanish. In general though I don't really feel anxious, often depressed but not all the time anxious. I just don't really know what's going. :(
Earlier I called an NHS helpline and they were very helpful, said I should visit a GP and maybe get some counselling from my university. Good advice but I'm still worrying about the chest pains.
