I am having a complete freak out and need someone to help talk some sense to me.
So one of my biggest fears is meningitis and I have just found out that someone who lives near me is in hospital with suspected meningitis. I’ve had a headache for days with tight trap pain which I am sure is tension as my anxiety is sky high at the moment. I even saw a gp yesterday about it who was shocked by how tense I am!
Basically I am petrified that I will catch it and die. I can see her house from mine and I know it’s unlikely but I keep thinking about wheee she might have been in town etc. I am losing the plot a bit over this but I also feel guilty for thinking so selfishly as she has small kids and we live in a small community. She’s a friend of a friend and someone I say hi to if u see her in the street.
Please help me rationalise this someone. I am not currently on medication even though the doctor keeps pushing me towards citalopram and I can’t currently access nhs anxiety therapy in my area as I am not unwell enough for the cmht but have to wait for DAS (iapt).
