Do I Worry Too Much? Help! Posted: 04-01-04 13:12pm
Am I worrying too much if I just got a
pregnancy test done, last week, and it
turned out negative? I'm thinking it's
wrong cuz it's only been three weeks since
I had sex...I am also on the birth control
shot that is supposed to be highly
effective and I am still worried that I am
pregnant. I dont have any symptoms really
except constipation and my stomach has
been kinda gasy. But that could just be
anxiety? Do I worry too much or what?

Hi angela1, I always worried about stuff
too much too even when it was stupid stuff
that made no sense. It got so bad that I
eventually got panic disorder which
stinks! I'm going into the 11th week of
my cbt group and weaning off drugs and
feeling great now though. You owe it to
yourself to give cbt a try, it really
works wonders fast the two books we
are using in my group are really good and
I would recommend them both highly: been
there, done that? Do this! By sam obitz
for anxiety and mastery of your anxiety
and panic-third edition by michelle craske
and david barlow for panic disorder.

give cbt a try. I didn't learn how to
stop worrying until I learned the tools in
cbt that showed me how. Read the obitz
book as it is a really short and easy to
absorb introduction to cbt and see if
there are any cbt groups in your area
