  • Worrying myself sick

    117lbs

    Good afternoon ladies,

    As I mentioned last week, I was worrying about a spot on my vagina. Well, I became completely obsessed with the idea that I had herpes or an STD. My concentration on anything other than searching the internet (which was detrimental) was non-existent. Last Friday I went to a walk in clinic, they told me I had nothing to worry about but took swabs and such anyways. This week I continued to check myself down there far too often, I was washing my hands a million times a day which led them to get red and blotchy which gave me even more to worry about. I haven't been able to eat except when I literally force myself to. I did so much of my own "research" online that I didn't believe what the doctor said so I went to a Sexual Health Clinic this morning. This doctor also said she didn't think I had anything to worry about. Nothing to suggest herpes but the spotting before my period could indicate a bacterial infection but otherwise she didn't think anything was wrong. I will get back the results within a week if there is anything wrong. I'm feeling good right now and hope this feeling stays because I literally felt myself falling in to a depression. I bet this blog is surprising many of you. I didn't think I had the ability to become obsessive like this.

    Today is turning out to be a better day. Hope you are all doing well!!

    Here is a picture of my garden from earlier this week. Lots of flowers are blooming, I love it!

    Have you ever been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder? It's not healthy to obsess about something like that, especially after having a doctor tell you everything is fine...maybe talkto your doctor about your obsessive feelings and see what he/she has to say. I hope you start feeling better soon!
    Did you decide to do that scavenger hunt for your anniversary with your boyfriend??

    Your garden is beautiful!
    Sorry you are stressing about this bump. I would take everyone's word for it and try not to worry! Our body does all sorts of strange things at times. I have bumps down there (under the skin) that come and go and I know it's nothing to worry about. I think I've also had an outer bump that has gone away and I've been tested for STDs as well.
    Stay positive and hopeful! I'm glad you are being proactive about it...

    I do understand the worry but girly don't let it overwhelm you. I know it's easier said than done but I really don't think this is worth stressing out so much over.
