anx mum,, i feel your pain and know how you feel i really do,, ive keep my daughter off school alot one because i couldnt take her and two i didnt wanna be on my own, i have got over this since but it was hard, the best ting you should do for yourself is except its anxiety , that would be one hurdle.

if you have diaizpma before and it did make you feel abit better then you know its anixety. and the doc has looked you over and said the same thing. if you were feeling that bad this morn , then you done ever so well getting up and dressed and your little one, and be proud of that give yaself a pat on back. you are fighting it and you need to keep going you can do it. nothen will happen to you just the awfull feelings ,, and thats just what they are, agreanline with no where to go. your mind is bluffing you, dont let it you are in control.

Take some nice deep breaths and really forcus on that and pratise that. i wish you well i really do ,, your the only one that can do with docs help learn you will be ok and can handle this things. you are strong and a fantastic person that wont put up with this. if your brave enough one day and that feeling rushes over you say bring it on, give me all you have got and cause your thoughts are fighting with your feelings it dosnt get anyworse cause you beat it,..


i wish u well,

Where do i start ....
i feel your pain i have 4 children and have anxiety and panic disprder also agoraphic tendencies :(
luckily for me i have a wonderfull husband wo takes the children to school, i dont no what i would do without him...

i no exactly what you mean :ohmy:

[bomberbeamish]

anx mum,, dont start to worry u will start passing out ,, cause i was same as you few years ago anyone said anything they got i would worry, some people do pass out cause they get so worked up and hyperventilate but you can control it,, big deep breaths and positive thoughts, breath in to count of 4 and out to count of 6,, use your fingers,, when u can do that then try in to count of 5 then out to 7,, none of us breath properly and even have to learn to ,, funny as that might seem you gotta fill your belly right up and really feel it cause you can take in more air if you try.

we all miss out on so much each day because of this anxiety we fear of every symtom every day because of our thoughts

[jaynemarie]

exactly, i think that is what hurts the most, knowing we are missing out on things especially when it is to do with our children x

Hi all,

Have you ever had CBT? They teach you to accept how you feel and stay with the anxiety, it will then eventually pass. Easier said than done :)

When you seek reassurance you perpetuate your anxiety as it only makes you feel better for a short time.........that's the theory anyway, I still keep giving in and seeking reassurance :weep:

Maybe worth you trying :)
