Hi, I've been having health anxiety for awhile now. Talking to a therapist that I love, she is helping so much. I have childhood trauma issues and dealing with all that and I seem really good for awhile and then the intrusive thoughts about my heath start. I start thinking about my breathing and maybe not catching my breath and I know its all in my head, and then I start thinking my heart is beating too fast so I take my blood pressure and of course its up because I'm anxious. I haven't taken it again now for over a week because it will get higher just thinking about putting the blood pressure cuff on...I really started to get into walking everyday and it makes me feel good knowing it is great for my health and then got sciatica last year and now I can't take walks like I used to. I know if I could get out and walk it would make me feel so much better physically and mentally but now I can't, it's too painful...Sorry for the rambling...I take SAM-E now for awhile, afraid to get on stronger meds, I just want to feel normal...I watch alot of youtube videos about anxiety and they help..Sorry for the rambling....
