I am wondering if I have an anxiety disorder, and it I can get better withouht a doctor or meds.
I am considered a worrier. I cannot shut off my brain! Sometimes I can’t sleep, other times I jsut obsess over stuff. I always want to be in control and I worry about stuff I have absolutely NO control over….I also worry about stupid stuff. Like when my husband leaves for work I worry that he might get into a car accident and die. When we are out on our motorcycle, I worry about crashing and getting hurt. I even picture it in my head. When we were on our honeymoon I was convinced the plane was going to crash.
The worst thing is I get physical symptoms too. I have headaches almost every day. My neck and back hurt. Whenever something is wrong, I get totally absorbed in it. Right now I am having TMJ problmes that my doctor says came from stress, but I cannot relax. It’s one big cycle that sucks! The stress is internal (not from job, etc) I don’t know where to start. Help!
