Does this apply to anyone else? Just Curious...

So I'm just getting over a case of food poisoning (in which I cried and was very scared, but I didn't have a full blown panic attack! I usually have to force down Xanax to calm down, so yay for small victories!) and I was thinking about my fear of the God awful V* when I realized that the only time I'm really, really in panic mode is when I think I'm actually going to V*. When I'm not sick the fear seems SO irrational, but the second I feel a twinge of N* it's like somebody lit a fire up my butt and I'm just inconsolable (and quite unreasonable) until I'm better. I start thinking that I did something wrong for that to be happening to me so I start calling people and apologizing for stuff that no one even cares about, and the whole thing (once it's all over) seems so completely STUPID to me. Does that happen to anyone else?

I am the EXACT same way.

Yes, I am pretty much ok these days on a daily basis, i'm still a bit OTT re handwashing/sanitising and cremating food but I only get into a full blown panic now if i think i may be about to be sick. It;s not nice but compared to how i was years ago i'm quite happy with that.

I'm not the only one! I was starting to think I was really crazy. That feeling is killer though isn't it? I hate when I think I'm going to be sick and it turns out to be something stupid like needing to burp. Lol
