Need some support today

Hi all,
Normally I'd post a positive quote; but today I just want to vent. I'm feeling really down about my anxiety. It's always one step forward and two steps back. Today I'm having some back pain (it's from my bed-- it's too comfortable and I spend a lot of time in it, which isn't good), and even though the rational part of me says "don't worry it's just your bed" the irrational/anxious part says "no it's something terrible." And I feel guilty for even having my health anxiety because my grandpa is sitting in a hospital, with real illness, and he is at peace with it. Meanwhile, I sit here, 23 years old and healthy as a horse, but I just can't get these thoughts out of my head. Just want some reassurance that healing is a process, isn't linear, and will take time.

I'm sorry, Blu's Mama. I'm having one of those days today too. I promise we'll both heal through this and not have these annoying thoughts no more. I'm also sorry if I'm not very helpful but I'm not really a doctor I'm just someone who's going through something similar. I'm glad you do realize it is your bed but that doesn't change the fact that it still bothers you. I hope your grandpa gets better.

I agree with Scaredy Cat, anxiety is a real illness as well. Just maybe not a physical one. I hope you feel better soon.

Much love,

Moose
