My mum says im a hypochondriach

you should really go to the doctor your mom was wrong for just ditching you like that people dont pass out for nothing and the needle feeling dosent seem too normal to me you should go to your school nurse(if you cant go to the doctor ) and tell em whats going on and how you feel…theyll be able to help:)

haha I’ve had this loads you was just sick, nothing more, you feel really faint and dizzy and spot dance in front of your eyes and you go this weird grey colour. and there are really sharp stabby pains in your tummy (that trust me if you went to a doctor they will ask a million times if you are pregant cause they think its contractions) but when you are sick its all better, thousdands of people get it every day, its really alright dont worry.

ok, I’m a teeny-weeny bit confused…about the whole dream and real thing.

as for you passing out, I think you should get a blood test. it may be aneamia…a really ggod indication of aneamia is the colour of your blood, they say if it’s dark, thats good, if it’s really light blood, then you’re aneamic…(NOT our menstrating blood FYI) I am always checking blood sugar levels and you only need to see one drop of blood to get a sugar test reading, and that can tell you…but maybe when you’re on your periods your body struggles to keep that balance

other signs are; feeling faint and dizzy, darkish cirles round eyes..pale skin..

as for your periods, your periods WILL NOT stay the same throughout your life, for some people they ease, for some they get worse (mine got much worse!).

have you got a urine infetion or anyting? that can cause a stinging sensation, and can make you feel very very ill. look at the colour of your urine, I know it’s difficult when you’re menstrating becuase blood tends to get mingled in, but your urin should be a nice clear / pale yellow / straw like colour…

next time you go to the drug store just get some ‘iron tablets’, they’re cheap, there good for you, and most people tolerate them well, women on their period should take them anyway because of th eblood loss.

your mum is so totally out of order, I have two kids, and f they wake me up, then I’m there for them…regradless of f it was in your head or not, you were asking for help, and it wasn’t even that badd’a time of ‘night’ (my bloody cats get me up at 4am, honestly!)

you do need to get it checked out, and even if your mum says ‘it’s in your head’ - surely, then you still need some help?

take care, and just go to the docs, regardlss of what advice you’re given on here, no one can give you a diagnosis. there’s tests, medical history, family history and many other factors that determine whats going on.

That’s not right. Your mum should be looking after you, not accusing you of faking an illness. It sounds like she just can’t be bothered dealing with it. Not all illnesses make you LOOK ill. Some illnesses are very well hidden. If you know that something is wrong, you should go and see a doctor. Your mum isn’t a qualified doctor, so she couldn’t possibly know exactly how ill you are. I used to be accused of faking illness when I was still at school, because I was ALWAYS unwell with something. But I never made anything up. I’d always get examined by the doctor who would then prove that I wasn’t lying. You should pay a visit to your doctor whether your mum likes it or not. If the doctor confirms that something is wrong, your mum will probably feel guilty for treating you the way she did. But if she doesn’t admit that she was in the wrong, it just goes to show that she’s selfish. As long as you believe that you’re not making it up, things should be all right. Good luck and take care. <3
