Anxiety?

Posted , 2 users are following.

Hi All!

I am a 26 Female that got diagnosed with Mono last week Friday, but I have been seeing and going through light symptoms for roughly two months now. First month I was more anxious and very much not myself in the sense that I have just felt like my brain has been living in a fog. Then right before Thanksgiving I had a minor headache, and my thyroid and lymph nodes on my neck grew, but I thought it was just a cold, and it went away, but over Thanksgiving I got extremely anxious for ultimatly no reason, and I couldn't shake it. Roughly two weeks later after that I ended up getting more symptoms such as headache, body shakes, fever, sweats, and eventually the tiredness and sore throat kicked in. My anxiety has been really great for rougly 8 years. I did struggle with it when I was younger, but I thought I had a great hold of it, but now I feel like I am back to square one. Does anyone else have anxiety as well due to this virus? It is just such a strange virus with not a lot written about it, so if anyone has any insight that would be greatly appreciated. 😃

    Hi lauren! Yes I had really bad anxiety in the beginning. This will level out as time passes. Remember to try to keep as calm as possible (Easier said than done) because I think the virus feeds off fear and anxiety. If you have any other questions/concerns feel free to PM me. I know how this feels and had people talk and help me during the worst of it and it made me feel better!

    Take Care!
