I have anxiety and am currently having cbt to help me deal with this. However, I've had a a really tough couple of weeks. My DS has had back to back infections and this week was really poorly.

I've now convinced myself he's got a terrible illness. I can't stop thinking about it. Every time I look at him I can see symptoms that are associate with this particular illness.

He was born through Ivf and I've somehow convinced myself that he's going to be taken from me. I can't shake this feeling. I've been in tears from panicking for the last 3 days and I'm so exhausted from worrying about it all.

How do I stop this. It's so painful.

Flowers that sounds really tough, it sounds like you are doing the right things with the cbt. Are you on any medication? I found that really helped whilst I was having therapy/councelling to get me in a better place.
