still anxious

[Daisy425]

I’m so sorry for another post but I’m feeling quite scared right now. I showered and I felt better. Then I had two cookies and some water and I’m feeling ifffy again. My stomach isn’t uoset it feels like I have liquid in the back of my throat (probably acid reflux I think). I’m getting so anxious because I don’t want to throw up. I’m at my boyfriend’s house watching football with him and his mom. I’m laying on the couch I might try to close my eyes and breathe. I’m just so scared I’ll wake up in the middle of the night and throw up.

For what it's worth.. I've been meaning to tell you this a while back, but I used to have the same fear, of "that" a while back.

IDK if it's age, or all the other things that I've been dealing with over the past decade, but other things have tied up my worries more. (to make a long story short)

.

None of us here are medical doctors, but my guess is if a medical doctor saw you right now, and could give you a 100% guarantee that your stomach is fine, that you would feel less stressed and more relaxed ATM.

.

I'm also telling you this as somebody with Severe GAD, (severe enough where my anxiety can lead into a panic attacks) and moderate depression, but what I'm trying to say is that, "I do this stuff too".

.

I can honestly tell you that when I was apx your age, that I had the "what ifs" about somebody being sick. Now, I am more isolated, and have other fears, but I don't want to go into them ATM. (this post is about you and not me)

.

My guess, (and keep in mind that I am not a medical professional) is that you do not have food poisoning. Why? Because I have had food poisoning twice in my life, and the reaction happened much sooner.

.

IDK if what I am typing is making any sense, I hope it does on some level.

For what it's worth, I am NOT anxiety free. I need to keep working on my GAD, and usually on a daily basis. Some days are better than others, but I am most definitely not anxiety free.

.

But I do know what it's like to have food poisoning. I do know what it's like to have bad anxiety, and I hope that something in this long post helped you out in any way.

But my guess (and again I'm not a medical professional) but my guess is that you don't have food poisoning, and your stomach is going through the stress/worry/anxiety thinking that you do.

.

Either way, I hope that you feel better soon.

anxious is a better source than me. I can imagine being over there can make you anxious even if your boyfriend and his mother don’t mean to.
