I've been having this recent fear that I'm going to have an anaphylactic reaction to anything I eat. I just ate cashew yogurt and now am so scared I'm going to die. I've eaten cashews a bunch before, but I just got this idea in my head of having a reaction to it. It sounds so dumb I know.

Rationalise this: you have HA, you know that, and your anxiety will focus your mind on getting some illness or condition. This is just another episode of your anxiety disorder saga. So you must consciously focus your mind on this fact: you will NOT get an anaphylactic reaction when you know you're not allergic to foods you've already eaten without a problem before.
