So here I am again stressed out about so many things my health and my inability to.Process and not stress out. I have been trying to reach my doctors for the last week and no one has returned my call.

I am afraid and I have no one to talk to. Sometimes. I think I'm just gonna lose my mind. Sometimes I just want to sit down and bawl my eyes out. And then I'm scared to do that. Because I'm afraid my Blood Pressure is gonna go up. II have to watch what I eat. I have to watch my stress level and I don't have a way of doing that. I am afraid, I am afraid. Everybody in my family keeps telling me don't worry about it. Oh, it's gonna be OK. Well, my mind is not doing that

My anxiety deals with my fear of dying and being sick.

I pray every day all the time asking God for healing in my mind and body....

Hi moggie. I am so sorry that you are going through it. I hate when anxiety just piles up and actually taking a shower makes me want to cry. I think I have gone for two or three weeks at a time.

I think it is understandable to have a fear of dying or being sick. Who really knows what is on the other side of death? Who knows how bad an illness can be? Can we actually ever keep ourselves healthy? I imagine you are taking it to unhealthy levels like I do with anything about money. I would give yourself compassion and realize that it is okay to worry about these things. I think that I would also try in therapy or with some personal self reflection to find out why these things are what really get you drowning in anxiety. I am sure that is a reason that is understandable for you. I like the acceptance therapy approach to things if you can tell.

I prayed for a long time with help through anxiety and still do. It has helped me to believe that my higher power or the God I believe in is merciful and understanding. At the very least I didn't have any weight added from feeling like I was failing God in lying around in bed not progressing in life.

I wish you peace, hope, and strength.❤️

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. I understand how hard it is when it comes to worrying about your health and sometimes no matter what anyone tells you, you can’t shift it. I’m sure with time you’ll feel more at peace with yourself! Keep having regular reviews 💛

So here I am awake and unable to sleep. Took some medication, hopefully I can get back to sleep. Thank you all for your words of encouragement. Going to call my doctor again in the morning.

Please continue to pray for me

Praying for you. It’s difficult for me because I am unsure what is a health issue and what is my health anxiety. The constant worry is awful!
