I am so bad about thinking the worst - especially with my kids! It's never something simple. Like a few weeks ago, my son tells me his eyes looked blurry. Instantly, I started to panic because it couldn't be something simple like he was tired or had a headache or something. It had to be a tumor or going blind or meningitis or something horrifying! It went away the next day. But, I'm always like that, too! I try really hard to not let them know my fears when they tell me things like this. I don't want them to freak out like I do. Anyways, just wanted to let you know you're not alone!
i freak out when it comes to my family also.one day my daughter bumped her head and got an egg on it right away. my mind is saying oh my god she needs to go to the er.but i have to force myself to be calm and just put ice on it.i dont want her to follow in my footsteps!if my daughter ends up like me i will never forgive myself.

When someone in your family/kids get sick or feeling ill do you freak as well or is it mainly only your own body and symptoms you have anxiety about?
I have worked in pediatric nursing and I am aware of all strange things kids can do so I try to keep calm. However; I find myself over obsessing when my kids get sick. For example, my 9 year old got a cough. No biggie right? Well 7 days later I am freaking thinking she has something major wrong.
A headache and I immediately think the worse. I am really trying to control my thoughts when it comes to my family but was wondering how you all do?
