been looking for a new house for 3 years finally found one went to view it last week,well satisfied was going to put an offer in the following day.woke up in the early hours full of doubt which turned into every negative thought possible,as a result hardly ate or slept and passed on chance of house purchase which i knew would have been a great move but just darent go through with it.
last time i felt like this was 5 years ago ,had to go away for a week without my wife and kids,full of dread before i went felt uneasy all the time i was there had a bad time.
few occasions in childhood dodged going on school trips cause i know id be homesick.
everything else in life is ok its just atotal wrench leaving home for long periods that i gets me down and i feel worthless i seem to anylise things too much,could it be anxiety,thanks

I believe that could be anxiety. Obviously the house situation was stressful for you, and too much stress causes anxiety.

Do your best to relax and take your mind off these things and it will go away.

It could definitely be anxiety! Major life changing decisions tend to have that effect on people. You never know, you may have bought that house and then the septic or roof fails! Sometimes you have to go with your gut. That being said...do you have health insurance? If so, do you have a doctor that you see regularly? There are many mild medications that can be used for "situational anxiety" based on the individual. You may want to look into this option. Have you spoken to your wife about how you are feeling? When major things are going on in your life, it is very important to keep the line of communication open in your relationship. She may be a great tool in helping you relax!

I hope you are feeling better soon!
