[Chelbell2012]

Hey any mental health nurses on here or doctors/nurses ect I feel dreadful tonight all of a sudden tonight I have had this worse overcome of fear my mum had a heart attack this year in Feb she 45 it's been tough but she's doing well back to her self tonight I have had this fear come over me that I'm gonna have one I'm only 29 it's so close to Christmas I have 5 children so stressful I just can't get it of my mind I suffer terribly from anxiety and health anxiety I can't stay off Google I'm physically making myself feel sick please 🙏🙏🙏 help

Not a MH nurse but I have had bad anxiety.
What helped me was:
Talking it through with someone calm and sensible
Meditation via the Headspace app or YouTube
Exercise
In the longer term, counselling and medication decreased my anxiety by about 90%.
I hope you can find someone to talk to

You can stay off Google. Choose other things to do instead. What treatment do you have for the anxiety and health anxiety?

I agree with other posters. Try to divert your mind. I also suffer from anxiety, and diversion is the best tool I use. Try to put focus on other things as hard as that may be. Put down the phone too. Nothing good ever comes from googling.

Do you also have someone close you can speak with? A friend or family member?

I'm so sorry to hear about your mum and sending big hugs to you.

My mum passed away at 46 ( I was 17) from a heart attack, for a year after I thought I was going have a heart attack/die and would have regular panic attacks. In the end the doctors ran full bloods and did an ECG in a bid to persuade me I was healthy.. it worked. I would advise having a chat with your doctor they will be able to put you in touch with someone that can help you.

Such a young age was there anything underlying so sorry to hear that x
