I’ve been experiencing exactly this since a health anxiety bout became too much. Over the space of a few weeks I was flooded with feelings and thoughts that I just couldn’t explain. Such strange feelings caused intrusive thoughts about why I may be feeling this way, I won’t go into the content of the thoughts incase I trigger anyone but I’m sure you can imagine what type of thoughts would be induced when you have feelings that the world isn’t real.
I’ve suffered with 3 bouts of health anxiety in my life, all of which were fairly contained and had no real impact on my day to day life but this latest anxiety issue really has terrified the living day lights out of me. I’ve started medication and on the waiting list for therapy.
I just so desperately want to get back to my beautiful life. If anyone could message me any success stories, I’d be so grateful.
