Not sure if this is related to my anxiety, but does anyone ever experience a feeling of "being a nuisance"?
I'm not sure why, but it's quite over powering (the feeling).
No-one has said or done anything to make me feel this way.
Having said that I am currently working through some intense stuff from my past with my counsellor.
My Mum was constantly putting me down as a child/ teenager and looking back I can see that she actually got some sort of weird enjoyment from deliberately embarrassing me in front of her friends and mine.
I was then in a similar situation with my children's father (we've been separated for seven years so no longer an issue) was constantly putting me down and jeering at me in an unkind way.
One incident that sticks in my mind was when I was 7 months pregnant with our 3rd child.
We had taken the children on a day out and the car park was wet and slippy. I fell and really hurt my elbow.
He wasn't concerned about me or our unborn baby (who was thankfully fine) and was more worried that I had apparently embarrassed him in public by falling.
Obviously I'm not in either of those situations now, but I'm wondering if reliving how they made me feel (during the counselling sessions) has brought about this feeling of being a nuisance or a burden to everyone?
It just seems to have come from nowhere and is quite over powering.
I've been feeling low and tearful a lot recently.
