Surgical termination anxiety

Thanks for all the replies and being nice. I was worried the post might upset some people because it’s quite a sensitive subject. I’m really trying to manage my anxiety about this but it just feels really out of my control and the physical symptoms of my anxiety that I haven’t had to deal with for a while have just come back 10x worse. I did do the counselling session they offer before but if I’m honest it was over the phone and they really only asked me how I felt and that was it so it wasn’t that great and I’m not really sure who to talk to about this now.

Are you able to arrange any other counselling via the gp with wellbeing service? If you have anxiety already the pregnancy hormones will be making that much worse along with the situation as a whole. I really wish there was something I could say to help put your mind at ease x

I’m not sure. They have a 24 hour hotline they said I’m able to use if afterwards I feel like my emotions have not settled but other then that I’m not really sure what there is to access. Especially atm, it’s quite difficult to get any type of formal counselling I was receiving some before this happened that was just about management of anxiety symptoms with a nurse not proper counselling. I guess I’ll just have to try calm myself for now.
