hey guys, before i start i just wanna say i have been to a doctor a while back when my anxiety started, i am on medication, this started when i was in the 6th grade, but i am now 15, progress has been well, but not 100 percent.
i suffer from anxiety, anxiety about dying, but not just any dying, believe it or not i wanna join the army when im older, anyways, im worried from dying from a disease, im in perfect health, im athletic and fully active, but i still worry that a disease will ruin all of my perfect life, i used to be so bad with my anxiety i didnt want to go to school, but with some medication and some councilling i have been better, now i will only worry if a small pain or feeling triggers my anxiety, or if i am having a conversation about something. for example, my friend was talking about his appendix and how he had to get it removed, shortly after our conversation i thought to myself, "wow i hope that never happens to me" (this conversation happened about a week ago and im currently struggling with the anxiety of this). so now every day i worry about my appendix and sometimes i get pains there, ( only when i think of it ) which causes my anxiety symptoms to come back. This is not the first, every month theres a new topic in my mind, one day ill be worried about brain cancer, the other day heart problems, diabetes, stroke, it never ends, it feels like i will never be able to over come this, anyways i wrote this to ask is there any others like me? any suggestions? any word of advice will be appreciated,
thanks guys,
