Formal into - serial worrier!

Hi again.

Just after a casual with fellow anxiety sufferers. I'm a youyoung woman in her mid 20s and have had anxiety for almost 7 months. I HAD GAD throughout childhood but never had he Internet to push it further.

What I have worried about: cancers of all the organs and aneurysm and stroke.

I currently have a cold but everyone seems to in my office. I don't know why but I can't focus on future as I feel I will jinx myself. Ugh.

Welcome to the club. Try and nip it in the bud! Biggest advice when you're relatively new to anxiety is stay off Google. Stop looking up any symptoms. I've NEVER seen that be reassuring for people!

Haha it really isn't. I'm worried because I have a cold and wonder if it could be anything sinister. Why do we do this? *shrugs* it's not nice to be constantly worrying.
