I've had a long standing diagnosis of GAD and it's mostly controlled with meds and coping mechanisms gained through therapy.
My brother and I are currently caring for our mum who has advanced pancreatic cancer and is in terrible pain.
Of course it's a massive upheaval for anyone but I can feel elements of health anxiety creeping in. An achy shoulder made me google female heart attack symptoms , even though I have a wonky shoulder from an old rotator cuff injury.
Need to get myself together to be there for my mum and brother!
