taking over

hey, new to the site, my anxiety has been really bad the last couple months seems everyday, all day im thinking 'what if im sick tonight ' i just cant switch it off, also ive noticed im concentrating on how my stomach feels all the time which i know is going to make me feel worse but i have no-one around who understands what im going through day and night, hopefully this site will help me get through some bad times x

Hi, welcome! You are certainly not alone here, it's nice to find people who do understand! My family and friends don't but I find this site has helped me through this last week or so! So get what you say about concentrating on your stomach, I do that and it's a nightmare! With time and practice we can stop that tho! I find deep relaxation helps me!
Hope your feeling better soon x

hi thanks for replying, its so hard when the people around you dont understand (i know its not their fault) when i feel like this i prefer to be on my own so been in bed since i got in from work has helped slightly x

Vicious circle isn't it? We like to alone but the your mind starts to work overtime! This site has helped me with that, I now feel that I can be honest and get the support I need! Hope it helps you too
