fIRST OF ALL SEEING A DR. IS NOT WASTING ANYONES TIME. IF YOU GET THE RIGHT ONE THEY CAN DO A WORLD OF GOOD. I’VE BEEN SEEING ONE FOR 8 YEARS. BEEN A GREAT DEAL OF HELP FOR ME. I’M NOT THERE YET BUT I KEEP ON PLUGGING ALONG.
Response:
You should see a Doctor. I avoided going for a long time and it was a bad choice on my part. I have since gone and i had many of the same worries as you do. I know am on medication and it is helping me tremendously. Just go and see the difference in your life.

I think what you are going through is very normal. We all hit points like this in our "recovery" and I think it is just our bodies trying to justify our anxiety. The comment about the phone is a great example of this. I have also woken up thinking the phone was ringing, which scared the hell out of me. As time progressed and the meds have kicked in I find I tend to harp on these things less and less. At this point in your recovery seeing a therapist might help. I do not remember your specific disorder, but we all need help now and again. Good Luck! d – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – I have so many fears..

What’s wrong: Generalized Anxiety Disorder. The symptoms you describe are very normal for GAD. A shrink can prescribe medications that can greatly help with these problems. Probably most of us in here have felt the same thing at one time or another. I’ve felt the same for years. See a shrink, there’s no reason you should suffer. YMMV Tim I have so many fears..

You won’t be wasting anyone’s time. You do need help and putting it off won’t cause your problems to go away. Sorry :-( Please take the first step. Ian
