so I have terrible, terrible, health anxiety and yesterday i tested positive for COVID. I’m triple vaxxed, relatively healthy, 22, and so far my symptoms are on the mild side (low fever and a stuffy nose). But my anxiety is skyrocketing. I’m so terrified that I’ll get worse or that something terrible will happen with my heart or lungs and sleeping is a nightmare because I’m too scared to rest. 

Today, my heart rate has been pretty high (in the 100s) and idk if that’s from the stress or if it’s a dangerous COVID symptom. 

I know reassurance seeking is not the healthiest habit but can anyone give me tips for handling this anxiety?? The stress is eating away at me.
