Does anyone ever worry when they DON'T have anxiety? I've been doing fairly well lately and I feel like I am just waiting for the anxiety to kick back in. I worry about NOT having anxiety. Its hard to explain, does anyone know what I mean?

Thanks

i know what you mean. try not to worry about that, because mine came back when i started worrying about it

too much worrying is common for anxiety sufferers, its just a bad habit

So, its common to worry about NOT having anxiety?

Thanks!

I haven't had much anxiety for the past month or so and I have been wondering when it is going to come back.. I know that it will come back only if I let it, but sometimes its so hard to wonder when and if it will strike again. I think that it is bec we become so afraid to return to that time in our lives.

I know how you feel.

I do, all the time! ;) If I don't have a panic attack in a situation that I should have a relatively bad one (a test for example), then I worry that me not being nervous means that I don't care about doing well, that I didn't study enough, that my lack of panic equals a lack of concern, etc... :rolleyes: I also constantly monitor (unconsciously) whether or not I have obsessions on any given day. This leads me to ironically obsess over not having "pure" obsessions, and then worry if I truly do have OCD, or if I'm just faking/exaggerating to garner attention... :eek:

Wow, this is soo scary and relieving!! I've always felt the same way when i'm doing well but never thought anyone else in the world could understand, because it's something that's very hard to explain to "normal" people that don't go through the same emotional rollercoasters.

I'm like, "ok, i'm good now, so does that mean I've been overreacting/faking it to feel bad for myself". I'm just waiting for crash soon. It's becoming harder and harder to be positive about this all.
