So I recently got a rescue dog, she’s 3 years old and I can’t even express how much I love her. She’s perfectly healthy (multiple vet checks in 3 months) and I have no reason to fear that she’s dying as she’s young and healthy. 

However I’m so terrified of something happening to her that it’s disrupting my life. I’m afraid to leave the house in case something happens, so we set up a baby monitor camera to ease that a bit. I wake up and check to make sure she’s breathing, multiple times throughout the night. I keep having dreams and intrusive thoughts/visuals of her being injured or killed. 

She’s not my first dog, and I don’t remember having this level of anxiety with my last dog. I don’t know what to do and I’m exhausted.
