I UNDERSTAND THE OTHER NIGHT MY MOM WAS JUST TALKING ABOUT A BRAIN ANURISIUM. I THOUGHT OH MY GOD WHAT IF I HAVE ONE. I NEED A MRI! I AM ALWAYS WORRIED ABOUT HAVING A HEART ATTACK. I FEEL THE SAME WAY AS YOU. GINA

On the odd occassion does anyone have wild elaborate thoughts that they have some deadly disease that they won't be able to get rid of. Sometimes when I'm anxious I have thoughts that I've somehow contracted HIV, or something like that, then I spend time on the internet looking a all the symptoms and stuff and scaring myself into thinking I've somehow caught it. I know there is no possiable way I could have anything like it, but its like I had shingles a month ago and now I think it was because my immune system is weakening. I was just wondering if anyone else has thoughts like this or if I'm just strange.
