it sounds to me as though your concentrating on the negative. What about thinking about the positive? Isn't that possible? It sounds as though your fears are irrational. Regardless of our fears we have to face live and deal with whatever problems come along. I guess that may not be as easy as it sounds but even so it's not impossible. We have to be the one who actively tries to solve our problems. There are various techniques that your counselor should be helping with to do that. I don’t like or believe that we should become dependent on medicationdons although I am and have been for the last 55 years. but my Neurologist say they decrease my chances of having status seizures which are extremely serious and possibly life-threatening so here I am stuck on these stinking medicines for something that probably won’t even happen. I don’t really know how antidepressants work or exactly what their function is. Do they improve your depression and improve your anxiety?
Take care,
Jake

You are correct. Ruminating, researching, reading fb groups…..
I am trying not to be obssessed but my fear is strong….🤞
