Health anxiety/panic
I’ve been having panic attacks for 2 years triggered by Covid! Now I get anxiety because I think I maybe unwell and then super scared that something hidden is happening. I recently was in hospital for kidney stones only for 3 days and the poor docs/nurses are so run off there feet the care in minimal. Mental Health care takes so long, I’ve been waiting to speak to a therapist for months and can’t afford to pay .
@Emma120815 Hi Emma! I hope you're doing okay. I am really sorry to hear about your health anxiety. I understand as I struggle with it too at times. It can be very frustrating when every little thing makes you worry that you are sick. I want you to know that you are not alone in this and many people experience it as well! Have you tried finding a therapist through your insurance company? They may be able to give you a referral! You can also search for a therapist on Psychology Today: https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists I hope this helps. Please be kind to yourself during all of this 💛 You can speak to a Listener here at any time as well! We are here for you!
