My dr prescribed buspar. Its been a week, & while I'm generally ok during the day, I have been waking up in the middle of the night with panic attacks. Xanax seems to be the only thing works.

I am in the same boat. Just made the appt for my annual physical, & I am so stressed out. I do this every year, & every year, I'm fine. Yet, I can't seem to get a grip. I don't know what to do. I've been like this for years.

Hi all, just restarting this forum because this is my biggest issue! It's been years, & not gotten any better. It's time for my annual physical, & I have just downspiralled into anxiety. I need help.

Generally, things are going well in my life. New relationship, about to buy a house, & general good health. However, I have suffered w/health anxiety for years, & now it's time for my annual exam. I'm currently on antibiotics for a bladder infection. Of course, before I knew it was just an infection...

I have stressed myself out since last thursday. I'm going to the dr tomorrow, but I think I'm overreacting.

I have severe health anxiety...I recently recovered from a stomach virus, & ever since then, I can't stop thinking about it, & when I do, I feel like I get these symptoms. I burp, & get some burning, (not bad) sensation in my throat, like I've burped up vomit..(sorry to be so gross. But, I noticed w...

I find that when I'm anxious about something in particular, it actually starts to bother me. For example, I had a stomach virus a few weeks ago that has been treated. Now everytime I think about it, I get some kind of weird pain in my stomach or side. Then again, if I'm distracted, it doesn't bother...

I've got so much going on....Stress at work, raising a very busy toddler, relationship on the bricks... I've been an anxiety sufferer for many years, but have recently relapsed when i got a stomach virus about a month ago. The virus has since been treated, but now I wake up at night shaking, thinkin...
