Posting again.. Still panicking.

[Andiebean_]

So I'm going back to work today. I called out yesterday because the sv* is going around and I was scared I would catch it. I've been getting waves of n* and d* for a few days, but mostly blaming it on anxiety and having my period. I'm scared to go back into work, and I'm scared I'm sick. I've been having panic attacks every day since I learned it was going around, and even though I wash my hands like crazy I am SO terrified. Some help someone?

As I person who feel your pain, I understand how scary situations like this can be. The best advice I can offer you is to stop. Relax your fears and have some mint tea. Your chances of getting it are extremely low. Just practice good hygiene and don't touch your mouth. As weird as it may seem, sometimes it helps my fears to wear a mask. As strange as it may look, it offers the protection we need.
Best regards and good luck,
