i only come on here every now and then, i don't really suffer anxiety anymore i'm far better dealing with it now.
But i wanted to say why i think i used to suffer with health anxiety quite a bit, I'm 27 years old and up until maybe just over a year ago me and all my friends lived the same life from the age of 19, fit and healthy Mon-Thu, Friday and Saturday party hard all weekend and recover on the sunday, now i won't say exactly what went on when we partied but i'll leave that to you.
My anxiety came as i stopped that lifestyle i hardly even drink alcohol these days maybe once every 6 weeks , but a year or two ago is when my anxiety kicked in bad and deep down inside i was worried about the damage to my heart,brain and other parts of my body , it's why i went for a few ECG's and even though i got told it was all fine , i could not accept it i kept thinking i must have done some damage to my heart or brain (and even now every now and then those thoughts come back)
now that time has went on i'm rather calm and don't worry about myself too much anymore as i don't live that lifestyle but here's the problem , i heading out with my friends recently and noticed barely any of them have stopped what their doing and it worries me, their still living normal day to day lives but their actions at the weekends are getting a bit much for 27 year olds , i'm now starting to worry about them and what damage they are doing to themselves , i fear that one day they will suffer great problems due to these choices.
can anyone give me any advice on how i can get them to listen to me or clam down in anyway?
