I just came across an intersting site called Postsecret, where people put their secrets on the internet.

So how about posting up a secret that only you know. Lets see if any Mumsnetters have something really juicy or interesting. Obviously namechange if people know you.

I've suffered from anxiety problems on and off for 4 years. I've missed a holiday because I was too anxious to go. I regularly feel intensely anxious/beginning of a panic attack when I'm out. But then sometimes I'm fine and have a great time and not worry about a thing. I don't know why. Confused

ds3 was not an accident - i really wanted a girl and when i was pregnant i was convinced it was a girl. now i have 3 boys so i'm scared i'll always be broody and disappointed. dh wanted the snip but i won't let him. i might have another 'accident' in a few years time.

Thisismyconfession - also use pro ana mia sites, I have been in recovery for a while, but still go to one site where I consider the other members to be friends. And when I am in a certain kind of mood I like to go to the most pro types.

My confession is - I went to prison 3 times before I was 19, I now cannot believe I am the same person as that teenager. I don't want to keep secrets from my DCs, but I don't know if I will ever tell them about this.

I have a little crusj on one of H2Bs friends... i prefer going on nights out with them rather than my own girlies to donce with him... Blush

I find out on Thursday who the father or my DS is.

I cheated on exP around the same time I fell pregnant, we didn't use any contraception.

I hope my exP isn't his dad because he's shaping out to be a crap one. At least with the other man, although he is not involved, there's still a chance my son might get to have a good relationship with him.

I'm a horrible person.

I worked as a stripper in a topless restaurant for 6 months and I loved it.

This is a very sad thread Sad

MarioandLuigi · 14/02/2011 21:47

I am terrefied that I will die and leave the children motherless. The anxiety grips me all the time and I am scared to go out sometimes because I cant bear to think of the DC's being sad. I am supposed to be going on a hen weekend to Benidorm in May and the closer it gets the more terrified I am that I wont see my children again. It keeps me awake at night until I cant breathe.

I have never told anyone how scared I am, feels a little better.

tinyfishbigpond · 14/02/2011 23:37

I can't remember the last time I was happy. It's been years. Even my smiles are false and for other people's benefit so they don't realise who I really am.

BoffinMum · 14/02/2011 23:50

Getting very dark here.

  1. If you say you have no friends in RL you do here, so hopefully that helps.
  1. If you say you are bad or whatever, you are not, you just did some bad things sometimes and you have the insight to see that they might not have been all that great. Surely that's a good thing?
  1. If you are deeply sad, that is probably something every mother on the planet shares at times and life need not always be like that for you.
ChippingInAuntyToThomas · 15/02/2011 00:21

It's good that everyone feels better for posting :) There are a lot of very sad confessions :(

JJ17 · 15/02/2011 01:25

I shagged my PE teacher when I was 13. Then I had him put in prison last year.

musicmadness · 15/02/2011 02:05

I'm friends with two girls (a couple) and am completely in love with one of them, and have been for a long time. I would never do anything about it though, I like both of them far too much to be the cause of any heartbreak and I know it will never happen.

Whatnamechange · 15/02/2011 07:51

all the posters with a fear of death I know exactly where you are coming from I have a fear my dh is going to die even though he is reasonably healthy , if you ever need someone to talk too you can pm me any time .
For the posters who are lonely
mumsnet is a great way of talking to people it has helped
me greatly during some dark times and I have also had a great laugh too , you are not Alone , start on here and when you feel a bitmmore confident try mum and baby groups just having people around who have gone through similar things can help you feel
less alone .

ChickensHaveNoEyebrows · 15/02/2011 10:16

Some of these I can identify with, and some of them make me want to weep. Especially the eating disorder ones :( I hope that anyone suffering can find the strength to get help, truly.

I have really strong lesbian feelings for a woman I barely know.
I often masterbate while thinking of her.

My four darkest secrets for your delectation, and my happiest secret to lighten the post.

I lost my virginity aged 20 by being forced into it. It took me years to get over it, not least because I still feel it was my fault as I did go to bed with him. Even though it destroyed me emotionally, I worry that my motivation was suspect as I was so old to be a virgin.

I once peed on the floor in Marylebone station as I didn't have the change for the toilets. 50p for a piss??? I feel both disgusted at myself and strangely righteous about this.

At my lowest point in my 20s I was drinking a bottle of wine and taking half a gram of coke every single night. I left the country to sort myself out as I couldn't stop. Though I have never taken drugs again I worry that I still drink too much.

I had genital warts aged 24. I have never told my DH as I never had a repeat episode. I feel vile about this but he would never look at me the same again if he knew I had had an STD.

I lie in bed at night next to my wonderful DH and with my beautiful daughter next door and wonder at my incredible luck. I cannot believe that after the mess of my 20s I actually got what I wanted and I thank all the powers that be and hug it to me every single day.

BitOfFun · 15/02/2011 12:19

Some of these are so sad- and some are just daft.

ImFab- do you have a date for your imminent demise, because I'm passing Ladbroke's later?

kenobi · 15/02/2011 12:31

LeQueen, did your friend speak to you again?
