Hi All
Just need to vent.... ;0(
I am getting more and more frustrated by the day with my symptoms.... the aching legs, the blurry eyes and the daily headaches and the constant, constant health worries.... I know they are probably health anxiety and I more than likely don't have anything actually wrong with me but I can't shift the thoughts from my head - they fill my head every minute of the day it seems now...
This morning I made a decision that I would not let this fill my head any more - I know it's anxiety and I know that I'll be ok but I had only been up 20 minutes before the same old dreaded thoughts had returned... Now I'm at work and busy it's a little better but even just travelling to work or in the shower or making a cup of tea I'm utterly convinced that today is the day I am going to faint in the street or end up in hospital or something similar and then the panic sets in....
I've tried all sorts of things to keep my mind away from these thoughts but it always comes back to the same thoughts and the same worries.... It's silly as apart from an underactive thyroid I have no other health worries....
I'm fed up with it all and fed up with constantly feeling ill - sadly, it just seems to be taking over my life... :mad:
