Anyone else have OCD around the fear of anxiety?
I’m basically scared of anxiety. I had the thought one day ‘what if I can’t stop worrying and making myself anxious’ so I spent like a whole 3 hours just in a huge panic attack worrying about the fact what if I can’t stop being anxious. It’s like a self perpetuating cycle. I worry about anxiety coming so the anxiety just became HUGE. Ever since then my life has not been the same. I’m better than I was but I would love to know if anyone else has struggled with it? Acceptance of the anxiety and not trying to get rid of it has helped me.
