Is this okay?

For about 3 months now, I have been battling my fear of seizures. I have never had a seizure, at least I dont think I have. I dont have anyone in my immediate family who has had a seizure, so why would I get seizures? I don't take any medications that would cause seizures and I don't do any drugs that would give me an increased chance of getting seizures. But, I do have anxiety, which can make you feel like you are going to have a seizure. A lot of people online have said that Deja Vu is a sign of seizures. So now, I am experiencing a lot more deja vu than usual. I also get scared when I have deja vu cause then I think to myself "Well what if I am thinking I have a super power so then I have schizophrenia" but in reality I have anxiety that puts me into an infinite feeling of "What if I am going crazy or having seizures." because I know in my heart of hearts that I am not really having seizures, it is just my anxiety taking over and making me feel like I am going "crazy" So yes maybe my anxiety can give me that "deja vu" feeling when I hear something familiar that I have seen in my life before, but it probably isn't a seizure. Can anyone relate to this?

Plushies, you can never cure yourself of an illness you don't have. No matter how hard you try. I'll explain why: you can try every therapy, medication and cure for seizures and schizophrenia but it will do you no good. For the very good reason that you don't have seizures or schizophrenia.

Therefore may I respectfully suggest that instead of trying to cure yourself of illnesses you DON'T have, try to cure yourself of the illness you DO have - anxiety disorder. That's something you can cure yourself of because it's something you actually have. Recovery from anxiety disorder and over-sensitised nerves can be achieved by talking cures (therapy) or self help techniques described in books. Oh, and there are medications that can't bring recovery but can bring respite for a period of time.

O.K., so that's that sorted☺☺☺!
