Relapse of full on anxiety
| Wed, 04-04-2007 - 9:29pm |
I'm inclined to believe that it's because of my pregnancy. But my health anxiety has returned ten fold. I'm always worrying about my heart, or having a blood clot,etc. My palpitations have returned I guess it could be because of my pregnancy. But I'm freaking out here. A friend of mine just sent me a heart attack first aid email that was forwarded to her. And now after reading that, I'm sitting here worrying and feeling anxious, complete with that unnervinbg vague shaky feeling complete with slight feelings of being difficult to breathe.
It just makes me so angry with myself that all my hard work has gone down that drain so suddenly.

I know exactly how you feel!! I am sitting here right now with a pain under my left boob and a pain in my pelvic area down my left leg ( both were checked out by my doctor) and I swear that they missed something and I have a massive blood clot!!! I hate anxiety, don't you?
I just wanted to say that I know how you feel and that you are not alone and I am sending P&Pt vibes your way!!!

hey there my anxiety siamese twin!
I was just so hoping to be anxiety free for the Easter and my anniversary weekend!
Right now, I'm having pains under both sides of my ribs. And I KNOW it has to be from my belly carrying this big ole baby! I hate anxiety...it's for the birds.
LOL!!!! I do hope you feel better soon!!! I know we are both fine but, this anxiety can get the best of us and I hate it!!!!
How are you and the baby doing anyway?

The baby I suppose is doing well, he's very active nowadays.

I hate it when people send crap like that! Well, maybe she was trying to be helpful, but it is rare for people as young as you sound to have heart attacks. I do not know your history, so forgive me if you have had heart problems; I do not mean to demean your concerns. I hang out with quite a few older people and am always hearing about cancer, heart and stroke problems, all that junk. I try not to listen, but that junk makes me anxious too.
Try to focus on having a lovely baby, and remember that pregnancy is hard on your body and sometimes makes it do weird things. Your body is creating another life and that isn't always comfortable...hope you feel better soon! peace,lyn
Delete those forwards, gf;) I have the same trouble. If I read heart stuff, I am sure to get chest discomfort. I simply tense up.
Remember Ashley, that you are doing the best you can by living healthy. You are getting good medical care. Focus on the positives. I am sure that the coming end to your pregnancy is working on you a bit. Hormones are changing & emotions with them. But look what you will have to show for all your hard work!!! GL! Hopefully you're feeling a little better. (((hugs))) jan
