I think I'm having anxiety issues

[PopTarts27]

So newbie here I'm 33

And recently I've been having what I think might be anxiety attacks

It started off with hot flushes I thought at first I was going through the change. Then I started feeling on edge and something wasn't quite right with myself, ive felt like this before when I had thrombocytosis so I went the doctors who ordered my bloods to be done they came back fine except my folate levels where slightly low but bot enough to need medication, she told me to call back in a few weeks if I still felt the same, I ended up calling back as I then started getting heart flutterings when I'm mobile ive had an ecg which came back fine but im being referred for a 24hour one,

I'm more inclined to think its anxiety now, ive become suddenly anxious over getting covid and it killing me off or being so unwell I cant look after my children,

Ive tried speaking to my partner but he just dismisses it saying he doesn't understand why I'm so bothered, my daily life isn't affected I can still function but its grinding me down every cough or hot flush I feel I panic more that ive got covid I take a test every week with my workplace but that still doesn't ease my mind

I'm fed up now I want my kinda normal self back

hi welcome aboard no question many users know your suffering.your husband shouldn`t be dismissive of your worries so hopefully he sees it in a better way soon.lots of anxiety just now and no surprises if it is but speak with your doctor about that.

Thanks for the reply

I think he's slowly coming round but I know I cant speak to him about it, ive spoken with my drs and I've a phone appointment with my access team tomorrow

But I think I'm more in need when I'm having the attack I probably have about 3 hours per day (unless I'm asleep) where I'm not having an attack

that`s quite a lot I was once told my anxiety was the worst this person had ever seen.I sort of created my own personal bubble and that helps it can backfire though depending on reasons that heighten your anxiety.
