I have been dealing with anxiety, ocd, and at one time panic attacks for a while now. Like many I can go feeling great...then boom all of a sudden. I recently got married in Sept. and things have been a little rough with my wife having mental issues with depression and anger, but she is getting treatment...none the less i have been battling a little bit lately. I have a very bad phobia/fear with going to the docs and really anything medical. When I get a typical bug/cold/what have you I get very worrysome thinking it is something worse then it really is, and it makes it impossible to relax and just get better. I fear it is something worse, and that i will have to go to the docs. This has been going on for a while now. Well in the last week i got a bug and of course it happened again. Well I am over it, and yesterday was a good day, but it seems that even yesterday and when i was not feeling well, whenever I think of certain random things i get that "pit in your stomach type feeling" the worrysome/anxiety feeling that we get in the stomach(thats the best way i know how to explain it). It just does all feel very overwhelming, and i have to try to be strong for my wife and our relationship. I take paxil, and it seems to help. It is funny how i can be so care free, and then all of a sudden bam! It also seems that sometimes if nothing is wrong, i kind of do the looking for things to see what else i can have anxiety over. Thank you for taking the time to reading this.
