so I have anxiety and I’m a hypochondriac
I slept with a new person on December 13th and I’ve been making my self panic ever since. I don’t have any symptoms besides lower back/stomach pain ever once in a while and the second I felt that because I slept with a new person I’ve been thinking I have STD specifically (herpes) I got tested for everything but herpes and hiv because I was too scared to give blood and my doctor said it wasn’t needed because I don’t have symptoms for either of them STD should l go back and get my self tested even if I don’t have symptoms of herpes should I even worry about having it if I show no symptoms? Ive never had a single bump, ulcer, or rash or anything. But the more I read on herpes I think I’m cratering some symptoms of having herpes because I’m reading all about. Like ever since I read that you can get pains in your legs I do, do you think I’m just making my self feel those symptoms or do you think there really there? If that makes sense? I think I’m just being paranoid because I read it can lay dormant for months and years before showing up. I don’t have flu like symptoms or fever no discharge that’s different than normal but I look down there like everyday to make sure nothing has changed. Do you think I’d have a reaction already if I did have it because I’m stressing my self out so much thinking I do have it? ? I’ve just been googling it so much and checking like every part of my body like I’m looking for it or something. Idk what to do anymore because I read that blood test are not really accurate so should I even do a blood test because they are more than often wrong than right? Basically what I’m asking is that should I even worry at this point? My mom thinks I’m being a freak because I show no symptoms. What do you guys think? Would you worry about it?

Hi Breeanna, its always OK to worry, thats often how action gets taken and disasters averted. But honestly from your comprehensive update, sounds like you have really nothing to worry about. Your doctor thinks so too. Often symptoms for things are very generic and could be down to everything and nothing - you can make them fit what you want too, which is what it sounds like you are doing. You can probably get postal testing kits for herpes and HIV, depending on where you live which would save your embarrassment, and put your mind at rest too. But all sounds fine from your description. Good luck with it...
