Hang in there! Anxiety and depression run in my family like crazy. I was always so thankful to never have had it.....and I definitely wasn't too sympathetic to what my mom and brother have always went through. I am 35 years old. But within this past year, health anxiety and fear of dying smacked me right in the face. I started having a fear of having an accident and even quit driving to work for a few months! I felt like I was losing my mind. Then it switched to always thinking something is wrong with me. In the past few months I've had an EKG, chest X-ray, ultrasound of my thyroid, X-ray of the soft tissues of my neck, brain CT with contrast and blood work twice. Everything always comes back clear. I am now taking medicine to treat my anxiety and currently looking for a therapist but I'm feeling almost back to my normal self. I still have my bad days but I've come along way from having to ride with my dad to work every day
. There is hope!
