Hi everyone, I’m (28M) writing this to get some peace of mind and encouragement to do something that I know is right. I got my first Moderna shot about 3 months ago, and I’ve put off the second dose due to anxiety since then. I really struggle with health anxiety, and I’m fearful of the way that I will monitor myself for every little thing in the days and weeks after getting the shot. Particularly, the rare heart inflammation cases have given me some anxiety.  

Today, I tried to look up some reassuring posts, but instead read a lot of people describing their bad reactions of increased heart rate, etc weeks after the shot. No one in my personal life has had any of these reactions… I need some encouragement that I’m just overthinking it.
