Health Anxiety

We all have those moments when we feel like the world is just about to fall on us. At that time, butterflies cannot even seem to describe the feeling of helplessness, tension, and anxiety that goes on in our mind. We feel that we would be delighted if we could just disappear and emerge when certain situations (like an interview, an exam, a medical test, a speech, an important business meeting etc.) in our life have passed.
