stop being a hypochondriac (read all 2 entries…)
Stop being a hypochondriac

I would love to stop thinking that I’m going to die any minute. I am obsessed with every bruise and cough I get that i’m dying of some dreadful disease, and i don’t know why. I’ve got a great husband and 2 great kids that need me. I just hear horrible stories of moms just like me that find out they’ve got breast cancer or ms or other horrible ailments and I’m so afraid it’s going to happen to me. I think about it way too much. My husband knows I feel this way and reassures me it’s cuz I love my kids so much and am such a good mom ( isn’t he the best?)

thank you for your support

Thanks, and I love green day too! (see my “want to meet Billie Joe”) I decided my fears were trying to tell me something so I decided to take better care of myself. I also did some research and found out caffeine is really bad for breast health, can cause pain and lumps so as of today I”m off caffeine and even tho I have a huge headache I know i will be ok
Thx again

refinne

i’m in the same boat.

it’s so difficult to rationalize our irrational fears of things that we have very little control over, and i never listen to myself.

you're so right

hello thegirlwho can,

thx for writing. We’re both lucky we’ve got people around us who keep us sane!!!!! You’re also right about making sure we get our yearly exams. I’m 4 yrs. overdue for a mammogram cuz I’m so scared they’ll find something. Stupid, huh? I know it is. I keep making appointments and cancelling them. My goal is to keep the next one I make (haven’t yet) and actually go. With 2 little kids I can’t afford to put it off and I know it, but my fear overwhelms me.

Good luck to you, it sure seems like you’re doing well with your fears.

thanks for writing!!
