I am sorry you are feelings these feelings. We know that it is our negative thoughts that bring us to this point. Lucinda says we worry about things that 99% of time don't happen. Please try to focus on positive, I know this is hard (I am trying to do the same) I will be praying for you.

What I am learning is once I have a negative thought I tend to compound that with a million others. This leads to what you are describing and it gets worse.

Try to breath in and out through your belly. "Try" to think Calm..I will be ok I am just thinking negative things...I am ok... I will feel these feelings but they won't hurt me. It is just my anxiety trying to trick me...I am strong..and i will be ok.

carly your anxious because the hospital to you right now is safety they fixed you when you were sick so thats natural to feel that you want to stay....but you are ok.

They wouldnt let you go home if you were not completely ready to do so. Your body will heal up and youll be good as new in a few days.

Dont let the anxiety your feeling scare you......practice your breathing and telling yourself that you are healthy and safe....positive self talk is a big necessity right now. You always have us here on forum or in live online chat. So come here often and let your freinds help you through these feelings.
Your going to be just fine.

carlyboy....here is a more postive way you might try looking at things....you were just in the hospital, so that means you have been checked out very recently by medical staff....if they thought there was ANYTHING still wrong, they would not have sent you home...so....you can be happy

and rest in the knowledge that you are okay....you are healthy and strong...don't be afraid you may be ill, be happy you know now that you are healthy!
