Hi. I'm new here! Not new to anxiety though, have been 'suffering' for almost a year now. Probably had symptoms for some time before this but had my first noticable panic attack approx a year ago which has stayed with me the whole time. Saw a doctor when it all started and went to speak to a counsellor who was great, had propanalol for the palpatations, everything worked really well but then about 2 months ago it all 'came back' hit me like a brick as I thought I was over it.
I'm now back into the counselling sessions and taking propanalol and trazadone which I feel is working for me. I have also began to accept that this is going to be a part of my life for a long time and getting to this point has been very difficult.
Hoping to talk to some people who understand and who don't ask 'why?' all the time :)
A big warm :welcome: to you.

Not sure how to start and what describes me best. A young adult with health anxiety and addiction to google. My health anxiety started way before I knew what it was: as a child I saw in the news that there was an increase in the number of meningitis cases in the region where I was living and it got stuck in my head. Few weeks later I had a terrible case of food poisoning and while questioned by the ER doctor on symptoms, I told him I had meningitis. Well...since then I had HIV, hepatitis a, b, c, d, most types of cancer, systematic fungal infections, bacterial infection in my blood, you name it, I had it or...Even though I know i might worry unnecessarily I cannot stop and google does not help me at all. I had times when I skipped work so I can go and get a test done, spent money on private tests. This year I had a full blood check up few month back, all came fine but today i am worrying something was missed. I have not talked with a doctor about my anxiety I just try to deal with it on my own...
