This is literally bull crap I'm literally back where I was a few years ago. Whhhy did I end up in this situation, how in the world do one come through this literally terrified of everything feeling like I'm dying any little pain. I cannot even get on a bus without having a panic attack, head burning all over throat burning too I'm worried it is more. Why doctors won't give medicine that helps, and not medicine they say is better but truly isn't need people to talk to please help.

Soul,

You have been through, and are still going through so much recently....it is no mystery why you are having a rough time currently.

Grief, receiving a medical dx...dealing with existing medical and mental health challenges...it is just too much at times, and the panic sneaks back in.

Anyone of us would be feeling the same...so know you are not alone, and are surrounded with understanding!

Do everything you can to manage your stress, health and emotional well being...and that is all you can do.

Know that the tough times do pass, and the lighter moments come...and with it hope reappears.

We are here for you friend,

S.C.

Thanks to you both.
SC I'm so trying very overwhelming right now and I wish there was a place to go to, to help get everything back under control.

Abba was a great band, but sometimes music is not enough.

Medical issues and pre-existing anxiety combined would be tough for anyone. So don't be too hard on yourself or expect too much of yourself. Most of us would find it somewhat overwhelming. You will feel better, but it may take some time....

HIV is scary but it is not the condition that it was 25 years ago. The medical advances have been tremendous and for most people it becomes a chronic condition, not a death sentence. MANY people are living good quality lives with HIV, enjoying their time, being productive and feeling well.

If you can get comfortable that you are doing the right things to deal with your medical diagnosis -- getting good medical care from capable doctors -- that may also help reduce your stress level.

I hope you feel better.
