I DID IT!!!!! Thank you Tracey...continued

[chucklehound]

I was sitting on the settee last night and I kept feeling really dizzy and kept getting a sharp pain in the left side of my head. Everytime I stood up or even moved my head to one side the dizziness got worse. I managed to ignore it and it settled down a bit. The feeling was terrifing though.
This morning the dizziness is slight but I am scared that I am going backwards. My head isn't aching but it feels like I have pins and needles. I am dreading the school run incase I go dizzy and pass out or collapse.
I feel so stressed out and can't relax.
Anyone with any words of support would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

you are doing right by trying to let the moment pass. but the answer is not to hope the pain goes away but to accept it whether it does or it doesnt

hard i know but the only way

Hi Chuck,

Fear breeds fear which breeds fear..........

A fact that we are all too aware of! You worry that the feelings will make you pass out etc which in turn makes your feelings worse. Try to keep busy the next couple of days and ignore the voice of panic, tell it to sod off! Easier said than done, as I well know!, but keep reminding yourself you have achieved SO much with the school run.

Keep your chin up!

Love Kate xx

you have been in my thoughts and i have still been sending posative vibes as i know you still go out and do the walk in half term...
i second what kate has said... tell the fear to sod off... and yes we all know its easier said than done ... but you will be ok on monday... you have done it many times now and i think you are doing great...
i know this isnt much help but just wanted to let you know that we are all still 110% behind you...
i hope you are feeling a little better and things settle over the week end for you

Hi Chuck,

When you feel like this try to do something to take your mind off of it, the more you worry about it the worse it gets.

Just keep reminding yourself, you will not pass out,, you will not collapse, its just the anxiety trying to scare you, and do like Kate says, tell it to sod off, mind, knowing you the words will be a lot stronger than sod off [}]

You are doing so well mate, don't let these blips make you think otherwise.

Take care

Love

Hi all and thank you for your replies. I am feeling much better than this morning and the dizziness has gone again.
I just think maybe it was because of the stress of the week with Kev and the kids.
I rang Kev and he has taken the kids out for a while so that I can relax and have some time on my own. He wasn't happy about coming up mind! he just doesn't realise that I need a break.

Hi Chuckle,

I totally relate to how you are feeling, and I am certain you will be fine on Monday. I feel the same too, but I think its just where we've had half term off. Yes, Monday is going to be a challenge, but think how we'll feel by Friday!!

You have done so well and made so much progress that you can't give up now!

Every time you avoid your fears they become stronger,every time you face your fears they become weaker.

Hi Tracy, No I wont give up on it because I have been doing really well. It has settled down again now so hopefully it will not be too bad on Monday.
Hope you are doing well!
