I have namechanged to post here.
I'm not ready to accept that I have a problem.
I know that makes me a coward
I'm finding it increasingly difficult to keep my mind from working overtime. I'm a born worrier and always put my daft ways down to that, but I know it's more than that atm and I'm finding it really difficult to keep myself from being completely irrational.
My latest fear is the snow and ice. I have to drive in it. I have no choice. It isn't even that bloody bad where I am, and yet for the past few days all I have thought about is how I'm going to cope when it starts to snow. I feel so anxious at the thought. I really don't want to leave the house.
I know I'm pathetic and I'm desperately trying to keep and handle on things. I can't talk to my dh about any of this as he'll just say I'm turning into my mum (she has suffered from depression and anxiety for the best part of 30yrs) and although I love my mum dearly, I really can't turn into her.
How do I rationalise my fears and stop myself from cracking up?
