Anxious but anyone else?

Before i jump into what’s bothering me now i want to say i’ve had health anxiety really bad these last few months but most recently my friend did my hair about a week ago and i think since she used her hair care products on me it caused a reaction to my scalp and now it’s kind of itchy here and there and the lymph nodes on my scalp are swollen and kinda painful to the touch. this isn’t the first time i’ve experienced this my dr always tells me they swell cuz it’s your body fighting off infections and it’s their job but i don’t think i’ve had them feel any pain before. just sucks cuz it gives me so much anxiety like why are they so swollen and why are there so many of them?? i’m just scared and i don’t want to bother my dr about this so i’m just trying to put it out of my mind and take ibuprofen to help with the inflammation. but i get worried cuz my friend is coming back tomorrow to touch up my hair from the parts that didn’t get colored correctly so like how long is this gonna last? i don’t want an itchy scalp again it’s probably the worst thing ever does any one have any advice or any comforting reassuring comments anything would be nice at the moment thanks. also i have a follow up appt with my pulmonologist on monday to go over my ct results i had a ct scan done on my chest cuz i had pneumonia in dec and well i guess it never resolved and left possible scarring. i just hope she tells me good things monday. and that i don’t have to go back but having HA i can’t help but think the worst and that she’s gonna make me come back in another three months for another scan. i just need to vent thanks ahead for any one who read thru it all

Praying for you! I can understand why you’re scared. With HA it’s hard to feel any other way.

Anxity is like a bad feeling it creeps onto you at night and it keeps me from sleeping properly. Never had this problem, till collage and acutely trying to do something meaningful. I have been told I have generalized anxiety disorder when I get inero stress ful situations or fail at something. I become angry at my self and start lashing out on well my self.

It turns into hatred and now I think I am scum and I won't amount to anything and people will always see me as nothing. That is the core of my condition. F Edge eling of loss and regret and failure. It has keep me from opportunities and relationships. Now I am alone for all my anxiousness and it all my fault.

When I frustrated or anxious I tend to scratch alot and breath heavily. Thank god I haven't resorted to violence or have not had a hard attack......yet but doe now I just let my hobbies take over to forget the world's woes and live into a fantasy to take my mind off. Even though it's a temporary fix to a problem that will never go away

The feeling that I will fail and everyone will just step on me and treat me like trash and forget that I exist

That’s why all the hair dyes and products say test it on a small spot on your skin to see if you have an allergic reaction to the product. Sounds like the itching and lymph nodes are a reaction to the dye and not worrisome but I wouldn’t continue to use the products so it doesn’t get worse.

thanks for the response. i didn’t think i’d have any issues considering i used to get my hair done all the time. but lately i’ve been using better hair care products that are natural and have nothing dangerous in them and when i used something cheaper my scalp reacted to them like i suddenly became allergic to these bad ingredients or something and anything else that goes near my scalp like as i get older the more sensitive in becoming to stuff or something idk i just hope they go down again soon but thanks!
