So not having a easy time right now.

Hi Soul,

High anxiety will almost always trick us into thinking that those physical symptoms are something more...and the health worries start to creep in.

However, consider just how much stress you have been under, plus the med changes, and you will certainly be feeling the anxiety in physical symptoms!

I really hope that your new medication is going to help you in dealing with your medical/thryoid issues...

...so that you can continue to work on your anxiety management, and feel well all around!!

Bigs hugs going out to you!

I say the same thing all the time. I really wish I could CONTROL the anxiety and not let it control me. This is what Im trying hard to work on recently,but Im finding it very hard and I get more and more irritated every day that Im not getting a hold of it. I just don't know how I let it get ahold of me,but I feel like I have no choice it does what it wants and comes and goes as it pleases.My heart does a lot of crazy things too constantly but if you've had tests you gotta try and see it as mind over matter. Kind of like getting headaches,then thinking you have a brain tumor.Some people get them and some people don't,but you don't have a tumor.Like getting stomach pains or cramps or heart burn,and thinking you have stomach or esophageal cancer,but you don't!Some people get it and some people don't.Thats the way Ive been TRYING to see it as.But it is hard with anxiety,hard to see it as the glass half full and not half empty.I know believe me I struggle every single day,especially with the feelings or sensations in my heart,its like it ruins your day sometimes,well a lot of the times, when you stress over it continuously,but the anxiety wont let you not stress over it! Maybe this is just a bad time for us and well get ahold of it sometime in the near future,or our bodys will change and help us get over it,you never know!

Hope youre feeling a little better,hang in there!!
