Anxiety symptoms when I am not anxious is the reason why I feel like I hav a disease and it’s not anxiety!! Wtf is this disaster??

I know , this always floors me , why the symptoms when I’m ok ?

Well turns out it takes our nervous system a long time to catch up and just by thinking well im not anxious what can be wrong? Stirs up the adrenaline again and just keeps the anxiety symptoms ticking over .. wonderful!

So we have to ignore and carry on .

You may not feel anxious all the time but your nervous system can still be over sensitive and gives symptoms from time to time.

Feeling you have a disease can be caused by Health Anxiety. You don't actually have a disease, it's your nervous system imitating genuine illness.

However, for reassurance always discuss things like this with your doctor, only he or she can diagnose you as having anxiety disorder.

That’s what they diagnosed me with it’s just so hard to believe. And they prescribed me zoloft but I’m so scared to take it.

Chrispal07, anxiety about taking anti-anxiety meds is just another symptom of anxiety. Why be scared of something that in 3 to 4 weeks will make you feel better?

[Hidden in reply to Jeff1943]

I’m afraid of the side affects

[Jeff1943 in reply to Hidden]

If you take Zoloft expecting side effects your imagination will oblige you and you will probably feel side effectd, if you take Zoloft expecting it to make you feel better you will feel better. Your mind and your nervous system will fulfill your expectations.
