@ButterflyStar Yes I am! I’m so much better because I usually would Run to a doctor every day Honestly. The only reason I freak about UTI is because I read If you don’t treat them they can progress quickly to your kidneys so I never want to leave anything untreated

Hey! Yes sounds like a uti. I understand what you mean It's so uncomfortable. I would take some pain relief - and contact a doctor so they can give you an antibiotic. Explain to them you probably think it is a UTI. Did this come out of nowhere? Or did you recently have sex? (if you don't mind my asking, you don't have to reply but it's related).😅 Good proper wiping direction after urinating is really important. Always peeing after sex is a must. Never have sex with the urge to pee/full bladder, just go pee. And general hygiene around sex is important because its very easy for bacteria to be spread from bum to vagina, or from your partner. Sorry if that's TMI 😂, just incase!

Oh no so you think it’s a UTI?:( I’m so scared because I really have always been afraid of getting them and tried to prevent them.. I didna few days ago but I peed after and took cranberry pills. I don’t have the sensation anymore it kind of started while I was holding in pee while driving , and then I feel the urethra I guess get really irriTted and feel weird (like the tube itself).. when I pee there’s no pain or blood. It’s better this morning so idk

Hi! It sounds like a UTI, but could also be nothing and I’ve had plenty before! The vast majority of UTI’s Can be very mild, i sometimes have what you’re experiencing and drink water for a few days and it goes away, other times it’s gotten worse and i’ve needed antibiotics. If your anxiery is surrounding health, I would just try grounding yourself a bit and focus on what’s in front of you and taking the proper precautionary measures (as you already have) but also fostering uncertainty of “the worst” always being a possibility. Drinking a lot of water has always helped me to get rid of that feeling/pain!

Ok thank you. It’s weird between I took UTI test strip last night and this morning and both were negative . I don’t have any burning Or pain it just felt more like inflammation or irritation internally but not when the pee came out if that makes sense

@j123 Yes I get what you’re describing. The urinary area can be in that gray area sometimes unfortunately. If both tests say negative I would say that logically you are probably in the clear, though as we know anxiety doesn’t listen to logic. Hope you feel better though! ❤️

I am scared I might die within the next few days
I'm currently living through a massive health scare with really scary symptoms. I am scared I might have an aneurysm due to my symptoms but despite that the doctor's don't think it's urgent. I have some test scheduled but I will have to wait weeks for some of them. I don't know how to get through this knowing I could die any moment. I live in constant terror ever since those symptoms started. I can't function. Can anyone here please help me with this??? I don't know what to do?

I feel anxious
I’m on my period and o think my ocd feels a little worse today… I feel anxious and like something bad is about to happen, like I can’t move or talk cause I’ll freak out or snap and do something. Also I had a gronial response about an SA topic and I feel horrible, I’ve noticed that I do have these gronials as if I’m actually into that but idk if it can happen that you have the gronial and think “oh I’m horny, not about this but I am” is that possible? Idk how to say it… also I think I just want reassurance but I’m also scared…

What is this?
Recently ive been getting very scared to even be angry bc of the horrible thoughts I have and it feels even more real when I'm angry or even annoyed. Rn I was not even super annoyed at my neice but I felt a twinge of annoyance since she went up to my face and was yelling at me while I was resting on the bed and I got this image of doing something bad to her and I felt my hand twitch very little. I got nervous and felt relieved when her dad told her to stop screaming for no reason. I've been hyperfocusing on my bodily reactions (mainly my hands or how I'm feeling like did I just enjoy that? Was I considering???) And I've noticed the small twitches whenever I'm mad or annoyed and it's scaring me so bad! Like do I want to act out? Am I holding back??? I used to not even twitch at all when mad and I felt 100% sure I'll never act out but now it feels like I don't know bc what do these twitches mean?, I do know I don't want to ever act out but it's so scary. Recently whenever I feel angry once the argument is over I cry really bad after I'm alone and I pray so i never want or act out. And when the annoyance passes I also feel so guilty and want to stay away. Im scared these are real urges and i research for many many hours to make sure they arent urges or impulses and i also tend to ask chatgpt or here if the anxiety gets so bad 😕
