worry all the time

[tony7246]

im a 50yr old male. i had a panic attack about 20 yrs ago. it was bad, very  depressed for ahwile.  it was brought on by worrying all the time.  for the last year ive been worrying all the time again. when my kids (in 20's) go out i over worry, cant sleep, everytime phone rings i JUST KNOW something bad happenend. i stay up all night till they come home.  i just started taking suboxone for a 3 year hydrocodone addiction. started the sub 7 days ago. i suppose to go get complete blood work done since starting the sub.
i am SCARED to go cuz i know something will be wrong with me. and waiting for the results will be torture.. lately in the evening, i get flush face, startled real easy by ordinary sounds. sour taste in mouth, nervous. flu like symptoms (which is one side effect of the subs, according to packet).  im on the net all the time checking EVERY symptom i feel.  can anyone relate to this

I can relate,I think when we are anxious we are hyperfocused on everything including what we feel in our bodies

Anxiety ***** and it can ruin your life. Been there. The only thing I can suggest is lots of facetime with people and family, talk therapy and talking to your GP about this. If this is health-anxiety related, then you need to test out to make sure everything is good. Avoiding getting results just makes your anxiety worse - take it from someone that's been there.

Get checked out and talk to your doctor and try to stay off the Internet trolling for symptoms.
