I’ve been so bad with it that I’m checking my pulse about 200 times a day, and I’ve ruptured blood vessels in my arm from checking my blood pressure so much .
I’m on medications, and I’ve recently started therapy but I’m struggling so much . I’m not physically well anyway - waiting to be diagnosed with anaemia - but this is worse than usual for me. .
I feel so frightened, alone and frustrated and angry with myself . I’ve lost all my independence and confidence .
Every day I have a panic I’m dying, and I just want a break . I’m not sure what to do to make it easier - new counsellor said to try and out some distance between me and the BP monitor or get rid altogether, but it’s easier said than done . I’m desperate to be rid of the anxiety - would try anything to be honest .
