Help Paranoia

[serena]

Ok - so my mother has just said she has a slight stomach ache but it's the type you usually get when you have a bug: I don't want to ask how she is feeling in case I remind her of it and she feels worse and of course, assuming it's a bug I'm not to keen to go near her in case she runs for the toilet in my presense. Now I have my music on in my room and keep thinking I can hear sounds of her throwing up - please help - I feel like I'm going crazy. What's more, I can't sleep like this but I have to get up in a few hours time to leave for the airport! If I don't get enough sleep (which I clearly won't) then I'm oing to feel seriously sick too. This is not a good situation!

OMG I know exactly what you're going through. I've been in the same situation before and seriously couldn't handle it and ended up leaving. I was staying with my parents and since they were short on room my husband stayed with his..... I ended up calling him to come and get me in the middle of the night. I don't think this is what you should do, but I just wanted to say I totally understand. Hopefully you're doing better now.

Serena, don't panic.. maybe this is no comfort, but whenever i have hada stomach bug i have never ever expereienced cramps/aches beforehand..i can appreciate that some people do, but stomach ache could be the result of anything..it doesn't mean she'll be sick ok?
You *know* that she has not physically been sick,so i hope you sleep okay.
enjoy your flight!

hah ur not going crazy -- the amount of times i think i hear someone throwing up, and its actually nothing..... makes me look like a rite nutter sometimes.


maybe the fact she hasnt mentioned nething since, means she feels a little better?


i hope thts the case anyway,

I hope you're fight with your panic didn't last too long and that you were able to get some sleep. I know how you feel when you think you can hear someone being unwell -one of my housemates does it to me all the time - he gags a lot when he brushes his teeth. The first time he did it I fled for24hours...notexactly facing the fear, I know but I couldn't handle it.


Anyway I hope you're mother is ok now and that you had a safe flight - please let us know you are ok.
