Hi there, anaesthetic really does mess with your head. It did with mine for sure.it gets better over time but it does take time with some people. I had to use distraction techniques constantly. I didn't give myself chance to dwell on things because if I did my anxiety went off the scale. I walked, listened to music. Sorted through things. Listened to hypnotherapy apps for anxiety. You will be ok you'll get there 😀🙏🏻
