Thank you, it's nice to be able to put concerns here and get support, sometimes having read about it just isn't enough.
I'm also trying to stop thinking about it as much - was just thinking about if a friend was to ask me what I had been up to lately the only honest answer I'd have would revolve completely around H.
I don't want to become obsessed and I have a personality prone to that behaviour. Just keep telling myself H won't take over my life if I don't let it- easier said than done right now, would love to go to the gym but I'm afraid it'll make the itching even worse.
Oh well this too shall pass
