Phillipa, I do not take meds and I have never seen anyone about my anxiety. I'm not sure if they could help.
I guess I always feel like I'm a very unlucky person in some ways (but I've been very lucky in other ways). So naturally I feel like everytime something good happens to me, something bad will happen back. In reality this is usually the case for me. I mean it's remarkable how a really bad thing will happen right after a good thing.
I'm gaining some traction in my life and I feel like with my luck, if I got rich tomorrow or found the girl of my dreams, the world would probably end and I would never get to enjoy it. I suspect that is the root of my fears. Many people think that somethign bad will happen to them if something good does, but I seem to take the attitude more seriously than most, to the point where it causes me great anxiety.
