Hi,
I am new here. I am happy to have found this place and hope to be able to support others as well as get some support. I am going through some tough times and my panic disorder acts up of course. I also have Generalized anxiety disorder, OCD, agoraphobia mildly, and some days are not fun, mostly when I am not feeling well. Today is a day I don't feel well. I have GERD (acid reflux) and my symptoms are getting worse and I have to have a test done that SCARES me a LOT. I have children and worry I will die. My hubby is not supportive at all. When we have tough times and argue he runs home to mommy and daddy and leaves me with the kids to be alone. Luckily my kids are not babies anymore and so even when I am having a tough day I can manage fine with the kids. But it sure would be nice to have someone be supportive and help me to get through this time. I am always the friend who listens and supports but don't seem to have friends that listen to me. Also I just feel like an idiot when I tell people how worried I am. I know worrying creates only stress and nothing good. But somehow I can spend a lot of time doing it. I laugh at myself a lot because I feel it is better than crying. But today I find it hard to find something to make me laugh. I have never had any kind of surgery and just worry I will be allergic and die. I just want to be normal and healthy and live a long life. I am going to see my Dr. in the morning...which seems like forever. I am afraid to even eat real food because it gets stuck sometimes or it feels like it anyway. Ever since I took my pill yesterday It has felt stuck and I just want it to go away!!! So......because of that I just keep worrying and am having a hard time not thinking the worst.
I hope I have not rambled too much and that it makes sense. I would love to hear from anyone any suggestions that they have.
THANKS
