So me again.

I feel so alone ive had such a bad day that i couldnt get out of bed i just want this horrible health anxiety to go. I thought i was getting better until i coughed up a bit of blood again on saturday. Ive had an xray and they said everything was clear my heart and lungs. Ive got a lump always in my throat so constantly trying to clear my throat. Has anyone else had this through constant coughing? Ive even had blood tests and they have been clear too why cant i just accept it?

Im so paranoid im going to die. And leave my children and husband.x

      Hi yes I'm under the mental health and I've done cbt which hasn't helped. I'm waiting to do some trauma work. And then I can go back to sorting my anxiety.

      Yes therapy didn't help me much at all but seeing my psychiatrist and getting a prescription has helped!

    I understand you.

    I have had health anxiety for the past 5 mths.

    Im 23 married with 16 mths old.

    Same like you im always paranoid by the thoughts of dying and leaving my husband and child.

    I have anxiety over my heart.

    I had my first panic attack 5 mths ago and ever since then things just spiral down.

    I cry alot almost depressed.

    I went for blood test, blood pressure.

    Everything came out fine.

    The physical symptoms of anxiwty jsut scares me and teicks my mind into thinking theres something wrong with me.

    My husband keeps telling me i should just trust the doc and believe im fine.

    I have the feeling of lump in my throat and ever since then i have been scared of food and drink.

    I hardly eat and drink cause im afraid i'll choke or trigger s heart attack.

    Its a stupid mentality but i just cant get over it.

    I became this way after hearing a news of a young guy who died of heart attack.
