I'm really worried right now. How to calm down?
-
I have talked to my doctor before about my lower back pain symptoms, nausea, and frequent urge to urinate and he prescribed me medication for a week I'm on day 4 of taking the meds and I see no progress yet and I'm having a panic attack. I live with my parents and I told them about my symptoms and they don't seem too worried about it saying to relax since I'm making my symptoms worse by having a panic attack and to stop googling my symptoms online, but I have health anxiety and it's a habit for me to do so when I'm not feeling well. Should I believe my parents and doctor and just give the medicine some time to work?

@shanny ok please try to calm down. I know what health anxiety is like and for you, this is really real! you have to try resetting it. believe your Drs and understand that anxiety can CAUSE lots of symptoms. I've been there and sounds to me like your symptoms are anxiety related. try to meditate or go for a walk or run.
believe your Drs and try to keep perspective. I know its hard.
