I think I need medication
Please tell me I'm somewhat normal. I know that I worry a lot and other people worry too, but I think I worry a little too much. I constantly think about what could happen when DS isn't with me. What if DH gets in a car accident and DS gets really hurt? What if he dies? What if he reacts badly to his medicine and the daycare workers don't know he's on that medicine and he doesn't get the treatment he needs? What if in the fictional car accident mentioned above DH gets hurt and/or dies and I'm all alone and can't afford our house because we still need to get additional life insurance? The list goes on and on. I constantly am worried about DS and that one morning I'm going to go in to wake him up and he won't be breathing. Every morning, I either check on him or hold my breath when DH goes to wake him up. If I don't hear DH yell for me, I assume he's okay. I am paranoid all the time. Please tell me you guys worry too. Maybe not as much as me, but at least a little??

Re: I think I need medication
that sounds stressful... see quote in siggy.
were you always worried about things or is this just since DS was born? I don't think it would hurt to talk to your care provider about it.
I find sometimes that I let my mind wander into a worry-frenzy and I do worry about similar things. However, it is not constantly for me. Just an every-so-often worry.
If it is truly constantly, meaning a few times a day or more, I would speak to someone. You have a very important little person in your life and it is okay to worry and even have freak out moments. I just do not think it is healthy that it is too consistent. Good luck and focus on the positives!!
