Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I can understand. apprehension is part of anxiety. I understand your worry about being questioned about bad parenting. Please you had a stressful 18 months. Naturally your body was used to that stressful period. The moment the scenario changed and the body tried to relax, the habit of the past triggered the stress. This is also coming under Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) though in milder form.

In your case, I don't see anything to worry. You should go and consult a psychiatrist and he will understand your problem and prescribe apt medicines. Do not worry about your anxiety and related problems. The more you worry, the more troubled you become. Take it easy. You will be cured. Take care.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
