Hi. My name's Vicki, and this is my new blog. It's an attempt to try to understand the workings of my mind.
Thing is, a couple of months ago, my doctor told me I probably suffer with anxiety. In some ways this was a good thing. It meant that the heart palpitations did not mean I had some life-threatening heart condition, my periods stopping did not mean I was pregnant, and that I was not alone. I was not going crazy. Other people suffer this too.
Since then I've done web searches on the subject. It helps to read other people's stories of their physical symptoms. I guess that's why I decided to write a blog. Because right now I'm going through a spell of quite severe anxiety, and I think if I try and write it down it will help me make sense of it. And maybe it can provide some help to readers who might be feeling the same.
I won't write too much in this first post, I think. I don't know for sure if I will keep my blog on this site, but I got fed up of Blogger so I thought I'd try something new.
Oh the title of this blog is a nickname my gran gave me since I was little. I guess I've always displayed signs of anxiety without even knowing it.
