I don't know where to begin getting help for myself. A few years ago I began having panic attacks, but I didnt know what they were. once I found out I began to self medicate with alcohol and sedatives, until finally I stopped it and started to deal with it. The attack subsided, and I traded them in for generalized anxiety and obsessions, mainly about my health. I was better for a while, and by better I mean that I slipped in and out of clinical depression, which was a relief after all that anxiety. Now the anxiety is back full force and it has manifested itself in the form of horrible obsessions about AIDS and cancer. I link everything to that and its really crazy. I make everything from a strange number on my caller ID to a text message on my boyfreinds cell from an ex girlfriend somehow relate to AIDS, like I think they are trying to tell me they have it. It is ruining my happiness and distracting me from the things that should be making me happy. To top it all off, I have ADHD!Yay
