Changing moods

worry and panic

Hey ladies,

Just wanted to bat something about really.

I am quite an anxious person and have periods where i feel great and not so. I have a massive fear of dying and it is something that has been really evident since i have been pregnant.

Normally it is a thougt that i have, have that feeling sick in the pit of the stomach feeling and then goes away. Since i have been pregnant (and i am ony about 6 weeks) i am so anxious about it all.

It is not helped by the news talking about nuclear problems, and the 'doomsday clock' moving closer to midnight, and not to mention the maya calender and "the end of the world" supposed to be happening at the end of the year.

I just feel a bit of a wreck about it and i wasnt sure if anyone else has had any of this worrying?

It didnt seem so bad the first time round. Just wanted some reassurance that i wasnt going mad really?!

Thankyou

Heya, im not really sure if this will be reassurance but.... The one thing I did want to say is people have been predicting the end of the world for ages, and as to date (obviously) it hasnt happened, dont know if your heard about they guy who said the world would end in may, and look were still here. People are talking about it now because it makes money thats all it's not something new. Also, I think worrying about dying is just a part of becoming a mum. Obviously you want to be around for your baby thats natural. Have you spoken to someone else about how you feel? Like I said not really reassurance but hopefully makes you feel a bit better :) xx

Thankyou, yeah i think it is about self preservation i suppose. I know i am not the only one frightened of dying, i just dont want it to stop me from enjoying my son and this pregnancy.

Thankyou for your advice
