So I have a wicked bad case of anxiety particularly to do with anything related to my health. 

Recently (about 5 days ago) I sprained my ankle badly skateboarding, no big deal. My foot is very swollen and bruised but my ankle feels like it’s healing fine. 

However, unfortunately I read an article about a lady getting a sprained ankle and then dying from a blood clot due to the sprain. 

My thoughts have been consumed for the last two days. It’s all I can fucking think about. I am so scared and so distraught and I wish I never read that fucking article. 

It said to watch for your toes turning blue…guess who’s toes are blue? Guess who’s entire foot is covered in various shades of blue and black and purple bruises? 

I have been in a full blown panic for days. If anyone has experience with this, I could really use some talking down.
