PLS HELP I AM SO SCARED.....

[PLSHELPMEIAMSCARED]

Well. I am facing severe anxiety, depression, carcinophobia, hypochondria, agrophobia, social anxiety, and so much fearful physical symptoms.


Hi, I have been facing a lot for the past 4 months. And it feels like I am tangled or stuck in a maze of confusion. i have carcinaphobia- fear of cancer which is scaring me because of my symptoms, and my overall daily health. Lung cancer is my main severe fear right now. 24/7 I just keep thinking that I may have it.

in July i started facing depression followed by anxiety. These both kept going and in 2 months they started getting severe. i had so many symptoms which just got worse, and every time new symptoms came i got scared thinking i have cancer of some type.
I don’t smoked and never have in my life. I don’t rember being exposed to much secondhand smoke while I was born to about 7 years old. All I remember was my grandpa who smoked. He smoked ciaggrattes, when I was in my home country I would see him like many times, not everyday but many times. After when I was like 2 or 3  years old I moved to Australia and now I live here.
I had some neighbours that smoked but I was not really ever exposed to much. When I went on holidays to my home country,  no one in my family smoked so I was not really exposed by much second hand smoking. Like I said before my grandpa used to smoke, I used to visit him for 3-4 days or 5 the most. He would smoke but as long as I remember he smoked outside, and even if he did smoked he would do it for a bit and then stop. And I know I was not with him all the time. As ar as I know.  So I am scared  what if I did inhale second hand smoke from my grandpa. It has been now 4 years since my grandpa has quit smoking. Now I know I am not exposed to second hand smoking but I am not sure if I was before.

Well my anxiety about getting lung cnacer or having it is getting worse. From my physcia sympotms I thought at one point I might have a thyroid disorder, since my mum has one for 7 and a half years and most thyroid disoders are heredity. So I got my thyroid check and normal. I got a blood test done for the thyroid,, and everything was normal except for vitamin d which was low and white blood cells which was a bit low too. Now this is scaring me so much.
Vitamin d diffiency can lead to cancer if not treated. This is scaring me. Because I could have cancer from this, if I had this vitamin d for a long time. My other things were normal, liver normal. Everything else they tested me for was normal. Now I am scared low blood cells can also be cuase by cancers. This is all scaring me.
Many websites say that severe anxiety and stress can also cuase low white blood cells, but I am scared if that’s not true in my case.

This is so scary pls help me. my phycial symptoms scare me the most. The more worried I am the more symptoms I get and the more they get worse. 1  and a half months ago I started having breathing problems. When I went to my home country it got worse due to all the air pollution, dirt and everythning. When I came back here to Australia it was the same and now its so worse. I have to yawn for breath, I feel breathlessness, I feel I cant get enough air in, air hunger. All this is scaring me. I know there are many other cuase for this not only lnug cnacer. But lung cnacer is really scaring me. and other cancers.

What you don't mention is if you've seen a psychologist about your anxiety problem or seen a psychiatrist if it's so bad you can't function.  Obsessing about cancer, as you know, gets you nowhere.  If you live long enough you will undoubtedly get it sometime, unless we clean up our polluted world, but worrying about it means you're making yourself suffer even when you don't have it.  Try focusing on getting past your mental problems, the one thing you know you have.

Up your vitamin D intake and stop worrying about that. Mine is so low it seldom registers and I'm still healthy in a very northern environment. I'm guessing you're keeping your breathing muscles, possibly along with some other muscles, tight the whole time you're awake. They get tired and ache, and the pain manifests itself in areas further way. I do this as well. It makes breathing particularly difficult and makes palpitations all the more likely. Also, this will make your stomach begin to show discomfort - nothing dangerous, just lots of air you're holding in with bloating, belching, and more discomfort in the middle chest area.

You do not mention doing any breathing exercises nor any consistent exercises. I recommend you do both. I know these symptoms very well, and the exercises made a difference for me. You can research them on line or join a Tai Chi or meditation group. Being around others will help. And you'll have a chance to smile at others and have them smile at you. As you get more comfortable, and this will take time, you'll learn to laugh at yourself about some of the things you thought were very serious before. That will be a big relief and will allow other reliefs to occur. Yeah, the blips of anxiety will show up from time to time, but you'll know hey are short lived and not able to control you so much.

Good luck! No worries, mate?
