Introduction

Hello,

My name is Bret. I am 24. I am a long time sufferer and battler of panic attacks, anxiety, health anxiety, OCD, bipolar disorder, and depression. I recently sustained a traumatic brain injury with acute post concussive symptoms and my health anxiety has skyrocketed to the point of becoming truly crippling for my life. I sleep in my clothes with a bag packed so I can jump out of bed and go straight to the hospital. I am too scared to take the meds the doctor gave me either. It has always been extremely hard for me, but I truly need support and advice now more than ever.
