When I was your age many a year ago I had similar thoughts,and a few friends I ve come across have had the same,we then like you had a tendancy to OVER THINK!!!!! and were very supersticious
and this fear carrying around me was just it It was me feeding these fears.
IT IS NOT A PREMONITION!!,
And you will be like me,I fear nomore or anything,I do sometimes over think but its always something else like how to do this and that,What could I do to in the future seriously you are one of many who over thinks ,tell your mum.
she may even tell you she did as well when she was your age.
I have never heard of anyone with Breast cancer at 14
You just got to go to you GP and get your peace of mind.

When I was 14, I thought about death a lot too. I think you start to think about a lot of serious things then. Like you, I also became convinced I was going to die soon. I'm 39 now, guess I was wrong. It can be horrible when something like that is preying on your mind and you feel that no one takes it seriously but I think what other people have said is right - speak to a teacher you like or even the mum of one of your friends. You could also speak to your doctor who would be able to put your mind at rest. I hope you are able to talk this through with someone and I am sure that you will find out that you are fit and healthy. Try not to worry.

I agree with much that's been said above, especially:

- It is EXTREMELY unlikely that you have breast cancer. And even if you did, if you don't have symptoms now you wouldn't die from it in 8 weeks.

- These thoughts are very common and will pass. You're not crazy but might need some help dealing with anxiety.

- The best idea is to talk to a teacher or other trusted adult as soon as possible. They can help you calm down, get help, and talk to your mum.

Take some deep breaths, play some music that you enjoy listening to, and maybe have some tea or a glass of milk, until you can talk to that trusted adult.

Hunny, do not worry as this is just an emotional phase you are going through. I recently found out that my ex fiance passed away and this made me realise how fragile life is. I then started the grieving process and thought that i was going to die at any second. But you know something nature will take its course when your time is right.

Fear nothing but fear itself will only drive you insane, as you grow older and wiser you will learn this.

if you have serious health concerns do consult your doctor and just say that you have not being feeling quite on top off things lately and you would like a full examination just to ease your mind

You could be feeling this due to stress and anxiety if you have had a major change in your life off late, so try not to worry too much as your body will also react as it affects your hormone balance.

So be a happy chappy and get your groove on.

Hope you feel much better after a long night's sleep and try not too worry too much.

hi firstly you need to try and calm down and not get too worked up. it is highly unlikely that someone of your age would have breast cancer. i think that there is most likely a lot of stresses that you are going through at this stage of your life and they are manifesting themselves into making your subconcious believe something is wrong with you and that you are going to die. this is not goingto happen. the main thing you need to do is speak to someone. find someone you feel you can trust, whether it is a friend, teacher or your family. then you need to make an appointment with your gp, so that they can examine you and reassure you that you are well and not going to die. i think that you need to give your mum the chance to help you, i'm sure she would be upset if she thought that you couldn't turn to her no matter what problems she has had with your siblings. its your mums job to help you and care for you. the stress you are under at the moment if you dont get help could make you have physical symptoms and you dont want this to happen. i know it is difficult to take that first step but once you have you will wonder why you didnt do something earlier. promise me you will go and get some help, take that first step.

It is not unusual for people around your age to have such thoughts - dont worry. Some people are good at ignoring them and others have more trouble. In your case, it is something which is causing you more of a problem. Hold on to the fact that your thoughts are quite normal as you mature and move from childhood to adulthood.

You are quite able to visit a dr without your mum. If you do this, you can discuss your health worries in depth and find some peace of mind. You can ask to see a lady dr if this helps too.

Do something positive about your worries - dont let them have control of you. You will feel better for it.

Kate, I'm sorry to hear you're going through a tough time. I know that it must be horrible to feel that way. Maybe it will help to know that the likely hood of you dying from breast cancer, at the age of 14, in 8 weeks is so small that you there is a greater chance you'll get struck by lightening, while being attacked by a great white shark, on the way home from picking up your winning lottery ticket.

First of all calm down sweetheart you are only 14, you sound like you are depressed and need cheering up, Promise that you will go and see the doctor tomorrow, even the school nurse will see you, just tell them how you are feeling and of your suspicions and they will be able to help you. I am sure that if your mum heard of this she will do everything she can to help you. I have a sister who is 14 and she went through this too, all you need is a bit of positivity. you need someone to talk all your problems to, and this nurse/mum or even a teacher will help. You are obviously a clever girl to be able to use the internet (I am older and have only just worked it out!)

What sort of things do you like doing? whats your favourite films? Ice Cream? do you wanna drive when you are older. Think about these things and start planning things to fill your days

Take Care and keep posting on here with your progress xx

For goodness sake talk to your mum NOW !!. She will not be angry, she may say " ho no , not another one " but that is just mum talk, we don't mean it. She would be so upset if she knew her little girl was worrying about breast cancer and telling us and not her . GO TELL YOU MUM NOW !!!. If you have lumps in your breast it could be your glands or fat or many other natural things that cause lumps at your age. Your mother could let the doctor reassure you.
If you are worrying about lumps and things you will have the crazy thoughts about death and so on, and that is all they are.
At your age your body and mind have a lot to cope with,it is part of growing up, you will make things better straight away if you talk to your mum, tell her you need her to reassure you, do it now !!

First of all You need to relax and take a few deep breaths inhale through nose and exhale trough mouth about 10 times. Bad thoughts can run through your head and its probably just that. You need to seek help and if you cant talk to your mom how about your school counselor? Would your mother take you to the Dr if you asked her for a routine check up so you can speak privetly with Dr or see school nurse. Are these thoughts in your dreams or through out the day?
