    new to this forum, but not with health anxiety :(

    Hi everyone. My name is brittney and i suffer with health anxiety, anxiety, panic attacks and hypochondria. I just left another forum and chat room, not getting the help im needing. Im not coming here looking for answers, just help getting through this, support; and the ability to talk to others about wat an how im feeling. I am a mother of 3 children and have a boyfriend who helps financially without ne problem, but doesnt know why im going thru this. Everyday is a struggle it seems, just to live. My biggest fear is dying. My constant fear is having a heart attack or having sum underlying illness related to my heart that no doctor has found. My left arm is always numb feeling, my chest is always tight, i get dizzy, short of breath, etc. The list goes on.... i am currently taking xanax .25, but only take 1/4 at a time. I kno, not enough, but im a little of a med phob too. Go figure, right? Well, i look forward to meeting people with similar stories and being on the road to recovery.

    Hi Britney. I joined here just over a week its great you will find alot of help and like minded people on here. I am the same as you Health anxiety, absolute nightmare isnt it ? If you ever want to chat email me, i am also a mum of 3 so i know what a strain it is. Do you feel guilty and that your too wrapped up in yourself, dont interact with the kids as much ? Thats me but i can say i feel better this week than i have for ages. Small baby steps girl xxx
