So ... I suffer from health anxiety. It's embarrassing. I wish I didn't automatically assume that every little symptom is something that's going to kill me, but I do. I have my whole life. It's just what my brain does. #anxiety #HealthAnxiety #MentalHealth
BUT: I have been seeing a counselor for about six months, and it has helped. It hasn't changed the tendency of my brain to latch onto catastrophes, but it's given me new tools to pull myself out of the spiral. #MentalHealth #HealthAnxiety #Therapy
Anyway, if you suffer with #anxiety of any sort and are able to get counseling, I recommend giving it a try. It's helped me! #MentalHealth #HealthAnxiety #Therapy
