I had an upset tummy and mild nausea yesterday, but as I was due to go to DP's last night (45 min drive from me), I managed to go into a huge panic attack and made myself feel 100 times worse.
I ended up in bed most of the day, although couldn't sleep, and my parents took care of DD. I have to stress I have NEVER taken to my bed because of anxiety before and felt totally ashamed. I forced myself to go to DPs even though I was feeling ill as I felt I needed to push myself a bit and it did work to some extent.
I suppose the thing is, when I am ill, I can never tell if I really am ill or it is all in my head, does anyone else ever feel like that? I am terrified that I am going to get like this again and not be able to cope with DD and day to day life. I am not depressed, but I really am beginning to feel I need more than amitriptyline to get control of this axiety!
