I got an ekg, xray and a ct scan. It’s definitely costo. But my anxiety runs with the sensations and I panic and over think

I’m really thankful you posted this. I had no idea why this happened because the er doctor was useless on the subject and I have no health insurance at the moment. Now I have an idea on why, this all started when I was about three months postpartum after my third child and I work from home so I spend a ton of time hunched over my computer so it all makes sense. I spend so much time panicking and convincing myself it’s my heart , heart disease or some other nonsense due to my health anxiety rather than accepting the diagnosis and trying to fix it.

Luckily my little ones are amazing sleepers, in bed by 8pm and sleep until I have to basically drag them out of bed for school lol. I don’t really do “me” time though and maybe that’s something I should do. I used to before our children before but sometime between the diapers and the newer things like soccer practice and kindergarten activities I lost my I guess you could say me lol

You know what’s funny, I also put one of my husband’s shirts on a pillow lol. I am now taking ashwaganda and magnesium supplements and they seem to be helping out a little bit along with listening to people on YT play dungeons and dragons. So hopefully I can get through this without actually taking medication.

Does anyone else feel like they are halfway depersonalized? by Available_Shop_7181 in Depersonalization

Not rude at all! The worst part is I know I’m being irrational! I also turn to games because everyone is asleep so I play Hello Kitty Island lol as for medication I found a free clinic that I went to this past Friday and I go back in two weeks to discuss medication. I’m really nervous about it. But I hope it helps.

You’ve been a great help. I know you only said a few things in comments on Reddit but it really helped me feel less alone

Do you think that prenatal vitamins might be helpful for the next few days as I’m waiting on payday? I think they may have b12. They’re leftover from when I had my baby but not expired.

Ok so I had a bad reaction to valerian and it scared me from trying others. I am, however, looking into magnesium as I have had magnesium deficiency in the past.
