Hi,
I am new here but have suffered from health anxiety for over 18 years. I am on medication but it still consumes me everyday. I am a nurse so learning all about different diseases etc became my worst enemy. I live my life the best I can but this covid pandemic is hell for me, like my worst possible nightmare. I have been home with my kids since march so we aren't exposed but my hubby is a firefighter and in the field so that always worries me. He doesn't suffer from an anxiety so its hard for him to understand how scared I am of this but he does try. I think in the past 3 months, ive convinced myself that I have covid- although every time I of course was wrong. Finally decided to go to our best friends house on Monday for a BBQ- only 3 couples and we sat our distance but my hubbys friend hugged and kissed my five year old (people are so dumb) and of course now I think I have it again, starting with chills since last night. Funny how symptoms start 2-14 days aftger exposure and last night was 2 days. smh. I am going to be a mess for another 11 days.
Anyway, just wanted to say hello and have somewhere to vent with people that understand what I go through everyday. Also hope I can help some people with my medical knowledge and what I have been through.
Thanks for listening
