Basically as above.... Someone i knew but was not close to passed away a few days ago and just found out that some one else i know has got cancer and only got a few days left all my family are going on about and they expect me to goto the funeral on tuesday. To be honest i dont want to go its making me feel really ill again and making my anxiety worse.

My question is does anyone who hears about people being ill and dying etc does it make your health anxiety worse?
