Severe anxiety sufferer

[Jaysn1972]

I have severe health anxiety.. pretty hard to explain it. But I worry about having a heart attack and think about death alot. I've been to the ER more times than I can remember in the past 6 years. After two divorces loosing my job of 23 years and dealing with the constant thoughts.. anxiety, panic attacks and meds to keep me calm. I'm loosing hope that I'll ever be happy again.

Hey bud... I know that feeling. It’s hypochondria. I’ve had it bad. Not as bad as it used to be, but it’s still a pain. Also been to the ER many times just to feel stupid driving back home. I can relate. Feel free to reach out mdommy777@gmail.com
