Health anxiety checking for lumps

[ella1998xx]

I keep checking for lumps in my boobs every time I check I keep thinking I find something but it's more digging with my finger than using a flat hand and the panic I feel when I think I feel
Something is awful
I'm 25 and just had my second baby so keep thinking I'm going to get it due to the hormones of having a baby I'm on medication for anxiety but it kid dosnt seem to help everyday I'm feel
Like I'm dying and can't stop checking for lumps

Have you spoken to your GP about this? It might be that they can refer you for some CBT to help you manage the anxiety. What meds are you on? Can you increase the dose?

1.) All women have lumps to some degree in their breasts, we have ducts, fat, muscle in there.
2.) you've just had another child so your boobs will have undergone changes and will likely feel different to usual.
3.) Nothing wrong with being vigilant, but if it's becoming obsessive/compulsive then perhaps speak to GP. Get a proper check done and consider some support.
