Hello everyone, I’m a 45-year-old woman who has been dealing with some pretty intense anxiety recently. It all started when I began experiencing pain in my left arm, and my mind immediately jumped to the worst-case scenario. The fear of having a heart attack or some other serious health issue has been weighing heavily on me. I’ve been trying to manage my anxiety through deep breathing exercises and mindfulness, but it’s been a real struggle. I’d love to hear from others who have dealt with health-related anxiety and how you’ve coped with it. Sometimes it feels like I’m the only one going through this, and it would be really comforting to know that I’m not alone. Thank you for letting me share my story.
