Final countdown to...

[buckstops]

I'm having serious wedding anxiety. I've not been sleeping well especially the last week or so where I wake up with this genuine heaviness and weight on my chest and it is really affecting me deeply.
I am really nervous about the day and everything around it - the vows and making an irreversible decision with someone to the speech and the first dance and then all the attention, I really don't like it. But my other more serious fear is whether all this anxiety and dread will all lift after the wedding, because if it doesn't then I don't know where that leaves me.

How did you feel going into your wedding, in the days and weeks before? And how was your other half?

But it’s not an irreversible decision.
I think a lot of people get some form of nervousness/anxiety before. I remember suddenly having a crush on a work mate, wondering if I was doing the right thing, but it was the right thing for me. I also had some form of ‘comedown’ on the honeymoon, I was crying like a loony, I think it was because for a year I’d had a focus and a purpose but now the wedding was over there was nothing to look forward to. I got over it and had a fabulous marriage to a man I adored, and we had a family.
