Not able to overcome my anxiety and FEAR related to my HCM

I have Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy. I have gained some weight, about 15 pounds since my surgery. My hypertension has gotten worse due to primarily stress and anxiety. I have so many things to be thankful for, but I have not been able to overcome my anxiety and FEAR related to my HCM, and I need to move out of this mindset.

Welcome to Connect @lisa7

I see that you also posted on another thread about HOCM and have met @cynaburst @lynnkay1956 @PatMattos @Sensation @ronaldpetrovich @rmcmillan @lepadelford @barbararickard @FrancineFafard and others. You raise a very good discussion topic here - the anxiety and fear related to living with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). You're not alone.

Paging all HCM Connect members to share their thoughts about dealing with anxiety and fear. How have you managed? What tips can you offer Lisa?
