am i sick or anxious

[jacob]

I am 23 years old, and suffers terribly of general anxiaty on the 3rd year now. I was all going a little better, but then I had the flu, and ever since, I still wonder if i walk around with a small flu. Has anyone tried the same? I have never been sick in my life before my anxiaty, but now it seems that i´m always sick. Its terrible, and is keeping me from visiting friends and doing the things I love. I even make up excuses for not spending time with my girlfriend, (so she won´t leave me, if she sees what a weakling I am) I can´t even tell the difference between the real flu and my anxiaty. What am I suppose to do. Hope noone feels like I do at the moment.

Hello Jacob to you!

You're having a rotten time by the sound of it - but you'll get plenty of help and support here.

First things first - you need to be honest with your girlfriend love.

I'm sure she'd rather know what's bothering you than have to hazard a guess? It might feel uncomfortable at first but honesty really is the best policy here.

Anxiety can lower your resistence to infection, so you are definitely not a weakling!

Glad you found us - and pleased to meet you!
