OCD/ANXIETY fear of bad things happening insinde

OK my anxiety has been bad for the past few days.

I was fine while watching the news. Then there was a segment on people dying of the flu. Then I thought to myself,damm how bad does the flu have to be in order to die from it. Then I felt someone move around and I got terrified because I thought...omg what if I someone inside thinks they have the flu and im stuck with a sick alternative thts not even really sick.

Even typing that is messing with me.

All of a sudden everyone started panicking,my throat got tight,my vision got blurry and I nearly blacked out from the fear and panic.

It took me a while to type this because I kept blacking out.


and I had to talk myself down and convince myself its all in my head.


I guess I freaked out because I read here that your insiders can have pregnancy and stuff and...I'm just tired of thinking like this.


Its clearly a "WHAT IF " type fear that amounts to nothing. But I just ...I'm just not sure why I freak out like this.

I've gotten better at this. For a long time I went through people I knew to give me a summary of what was going on in the world. Now I read stuff online. Usually the stuff I read online is more toned down than tv news. TV news tends to sensationalize it more, dramatizing it with newscasters sounding way more freaked out about a story than they need to be, describing things as much worse than it is etc.

Wait what?? Can you describe this more so I know what you mean?
