hi everyone,
this is probably a silly question since i think what i am going through is a huge component of anxiety :blush:, but does anyone else have an issue with constant worry about your health? i have been in therapy and on meds for almost two months and have been feeling a lot better, but sometimes i still get episodes of strong fear.
if anyone has read my posts before they know that in the past few months i have had a bunch of tests (chest x-ray, EKG, extensive blood work, MRI of the brain and a mammogram) that all came back negative (thankfully), but instead of realizing what a positive thing that is :doh:, the anxiety remains. fortunately, it isn't constant and debilitating anymore, but i still have scary thoughts from time to time.
don't get me wrong, i know how lucky i am in regards to my test results, i'm just frustrated about the paranoia and wanted to know if anyone is going through a similar situation. :shrug:
