Yes ikr total bucket list. Chicago is the shedd aquarium , they have these special white sided dolphins and belugas...also it’s a historic building so it’s got cool decorative features like seahorse lights....it’s pretty expensive though.

But the jellies were awesome there and I got a shirt with like an embroidered turtle and stuff.
Atlanta is totally off the hook!!!

I know you’re responding to bpcyclist but I just want to say if you want to be a writer pour everything into that. You’ll probably need a day job, but it sounds like you translate well already.

Ok little cbt tip. You can ignore if you want but it helps me. Remember this moment and whether it was as bad as you thought when you had anxiety anticipating it. Sure it’s bad but is it as bad as worrying for a week? Next time you’re having anxiety over a future outcome think of it....
Honestly I was kinda relieved because it made sense, that's why I wasnt able to pick up the med sunday.

Thanks for the tip SP <3

No. This has been going on for a few years. It’s not that I think I’m fat type of BDD, it’s like my body doesn’t look how it should sometimes. Like my arms feel longer than they should or how right now my lower legs look weirdly skinny. Like something is wrong with me physically/medically.

Fiancé says I probably have just gained too much weight the past few years and my body is a small frame and isn’t meant to be this size. I’m honestly obese. My healthy weight is about 120 maybe little under. I’m 5’2.

I have that too but I don’t think my issue is that so much as feeling medically sick. I don’t have much fear of my weight but I should, but if I feel like there’s a tumor in my stomach, all hell breaks loose in my head. Everyday, I truly feel like I might be sick and it’s always something different. Idk how to stop the fear.

Obviously the pain in my back is real but I went to ER just for them to tell me it was nothing. I feel like a fool. And that’s when hypochondria becomes an issue, going to the ER over I think I’m dying or something.

Have you talked to your therapist about this? She should be able to talk you through it.

Always goto your PCP first, urgent care second and ER if you’re literally dying....like in so much pain you can’t sit still. Besides your ER said you might have a kidney infection or a pulled muscle...that’s not nothing. Did you call your PCP to find out about the infection and whether the urine came back positive?

I feel great right now. Probably the Aleve and coffee and rest. But I have signed up for so much stuff and I haven’t participated in any of it. I’m talking more than the VR, talking about real life stuff too. Haven’t been writing or doing my blog but getting consistent hits on it.

What’s wrong with me? I ask because if I feel I’m slacking on things I feel I should be doing I feel lazy and unworthy.

Given that the ER couldn’t rule out a kidney infection you might want to keep taking the antibiotics, that’s why I wanted you to call your PCP......it’s not something you can just start and stop, you need to either be on it or not taking it at all.
