Note: my doctors know about my anxiety problems now, they all still feel I had some aspects of POTS condition going on, but I am 95% it was all anxiety. When I first thought I had POTS, all my symptoms were very real and it was horrifying, then as I became aware of my dizziness going away I started to exaggerate my symptoms to avoid going back to regular life, because I was scared. But I am also scared I was doing it for attention. The fact that I would exaggerate my symtpoms for any reason sickens me!! My family has moved on and told me not to worry about this all, but I can't stop obsessing and feeling guilty.
