The past two weeks have been rough for me. I've been so anxious, to the point where there are some days all I end up doing is laying in bed and worry nonstop. My anxiety has a lot of physical symptoms, and that has been making me even more anxious as well because I'm also a bit of a hypochondriac. 

Up until recently my symptoms of anxiety have been limited to heart palpitations, shaking, chest pressure and increased heart rates. As of late I've begun to get tension headaches, feeling like there's pressure in my head, lightheadedness, and a head rush feeling. Sometimes I'll be napping and when I wake up my heart is beating so fast and I'm shaking, it takes me about 5-10 minutes to calm down from that. Dr. Google was no help since everything leads to something scary when I search up symptoms so I've stopped doing that the past couple of days. I've already seen a doctor and have more appointments coming up to rule out anything medical.

I also experienced derealization for the first time last week and that really freaked me out, it got better for about three days but came back yesterday. It scares me cause I'll look at my hands in the shower and they don't even feel like my own. All this anxiety has been causing me a lot of fear, like I'm going to die young or something. All this starting happening abruptly after I returned from my trip where I was visiting my long distance partner. I just want to feel normal again.
