 Hello everyone! :) I just want to know who else out there starts having anxiety/feeling anxious when someone asks them randomly "Are you okay?" I was just doing my job and misplaced a chart note momentarily and was simply looking for it and a co-worker grabs my shoulders and says "are you okay!?" Ummm...yeah I was until you asked me that lol. She said I looked frazzled. Nope, just busy! :) But then it gets me questioning myself. Anyone else get a little anxious when asked this? smhair

Omg yes!!!

My first thought is " If they are asking that, I must look sick. So I really must be sick! "

I have severe health anxiety, so questions like that send me over the edge.

Yes! It drives me crazy. I know people mean well, but it always gets me going.

Yep! We have had this post before...I am getting deju vu right now! Someone else posted this exact same subject some time back...and it seems to freak a lot of us out.;p

I personally hate questions like that. It may be well intended, but save it, please!

With friends like that...right?

Let's make a pact to never ask eachother that here okay? Lol!

Take care and know that you are A-okay!:)
