I'm a FTM, and I'm 33w1d. I have a huge fear of the unknown, and I'm terrified that I won't know I'm having contractions. Tonight, I've had a lot of pressure and I'm feeling her move a lot. I know some women here have said they've had some bleeding, I haven't had any bleeding but I'm just nervous that when the time comes, I won't know. What do contractions feel like?

reading about it dont help it will just heighten your anxiety,the recorded deaths are tragic,but in comparrison to the success rate of themit do put it in to a prospective,just tell your fears to the person who is going to give you the needle ask any questions you need to ask and remember they cannot force you to have anything done that you dont wish to have done.
s so very important to try thru therapy to find out why you are so anxious and deal with it. You can also learn how to cope so much better. We all live with the unknown everyday, but obcessing over what "may be" is a waste of our time and life. Your body will let you know if there is a problem, until then do everything to stay healthy, especially exercise which is great for anxiety. Have yearly check-ups and if all is okay...accept it and live your life.
Anxiety sufferers tend to fear the unknown and death is certainly unknown we fear when n where we will have or next anxiety/panic attack I used to cringe for someone to come and tell me that someone had died I'd begin to think when n where n how for me so I'd get the racey heart n shortness of breath and off to the er I would go because I though I was dying so the what helped me is to live moment for moment n stop thinking so far ahead I was planning a trip for my family which was month
Have you tried focused slow breathing, walking, aromatherapy, acupuncture, massage, redirect by doing something?

To overcome anxiety, one must understand the logic of why the brain is feeling threatened, it sends messages to the body saying its under threat. New pathways need to be created to overcome the old programming. So for example, if you panic over a fear of flying, you must start flying and let the brain realise that its all okay, and reprogram the thoughts.
However, the fear of dying can't really be practiced. Some buddhists meditate in a morgue as it is the closest we can get to dying.
Ok thank you very much! I hope that you are correct! I just don't know how to get rid of this PHOBIA! Perhaps i should take the 8 month test. But i can't get over the fear that i might turn positve and can't force my self to take the test. But i am also afraid if i don't take the test and make sure i am 100% HIV free i might be infected and not knowing about it. I know this is wierd but thats how i feel and i have no idea why.
I am not exactly measuring (using the scale) each and every food that I eat. But I am very aware of the portion size. I try to listen to my stomach. If I feel that I am almost full, I stop eating because I know that I will only end up purging the excess of what I should've only eaten. I have been doing that for quite some time now so I know by now what portion size will prevent me from purging.
