Hi! I have a long history of generalized anxiety...gosh, you name it, from my brother's death to armed robbery, hijacking, contracting guillain barre and having to learn how to walk again...hubby has a liver tumor...I sound like a TV drama plot!
So...i am naturally an optimistic, spring back up again type of person but over the course of all these interesting challenges, I have allowed GAD to control much of my existence. i don't have fun anymore and I am losing parts of my life slowly. We are emigrating in the next few months which adds to the stress of everything but at the same time I am looking forward to the frsh start

I have the slightest head pains and i think i have a brain tumour and then worry about it for days...over all the years of having a string of bad luck, I have grown to expect the worst. I am very sad that this is who I have become and I need to find a path out of it without going back on anti-anxiety meds. Any advice?
Hypnotherapy? Thanks for listening
