Hi everyone !!! My name is Michelle and I'm married and I have four kids. I have GAD and I've been under a lot of stress A LOT. Last month the doctor told me I had H. Pylori I took all my meds. It was hard too, I hate taking pills, but I started feeling better for alittle while. Now, I'm l having stomach problems bowel problems and headaches and I've been nausea and I can't eat. I'm always worrying of cancer or heart problems. I can't help myself. I've had three doctors tell me I shouldn't worry . I go for more test next week to find out whats wrong this time. My family thinks all my symptoms or due to Stress and Anxiety. And I'm scared there not. All I know is I stay scared and worried all the time. Can any one relate to any of this ? I'm not on any meds. right now. I can't take pills they scare me. I feel the need to be incontrol at all times. Not sure why. How do you stop worrying? Does any one have the question to that ? I lost both parents last years and I wish my mom was still around. I lost my dad last May and my mom Nov. I'm so lost and scared without them. I have one brother but he's not much of a brother, he got issues. My husband is great, he try but, its not the same. I don't have many friends. I sure wish I did. If you think you can help me Please feel free to try. I am a good christian, I believe in god. I pray everynight or I try too. I just don't know what to do anymore. And I bet this letter confuses alot of you. Thats how I feel most of the time CONFUSED.
sincerely, worried, scared and confused -Michelle- |

It's good to get all of the physical symptoms checked out. If they show that you are probably having anxiety then it's good to speak with someone about an evaluation for anxiety, depression and appropriate meds. Don't be afraid of the meds because they can be really helpful even if it sometimes takes a while. You deserve to feel better and anxiety is your brain chemistry tricking you. First off it needs a total evaluation. I am sorry about your parents. A lot of loss in a short time. How old are your kids? Please hang in there and know that it can get better nad the right help makes all of the difference in the world.

Thank you, I like to say it helped, the true is I can't hardly sleep and when I am able to fall asleep. Like, this morning I woke up having a panic attack. All I could do is dream about my symptoms. I'm trying not to think about things. Its hard. The doctor is making me wait a week to two weeks. Its scared not knowing. I just don't know why I'm scared now. Because I don't know nothing yet. My stomach seems to hurt more. I'm not sure it's all in my head.
My kids 15,13,11,9 One boy who is the oldest and three girls. -Michelle- |
