I'm trying hard to use distraction strategies, and feel like my health anxiety is getting slightly better... but any time i have a disagreement with my partner or something like that I straightaway start thinking bad thoughts about my health - even if we were talking about something totally unrelated. </P> <P>does anyone else find this?</P> Sun, 26 Feb 2017 08:39:11 GMT amalee78 2017-02-26T08:39:11Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/bad-thoughts-worse-after-fights/m-p/190269#M17923 <P>Does anyone else find that their anxiety gets worse after fighting with loved ones?

How do you usually cope with it when it happens? Health anxiety is tough as well, I have it too so I know how rough it can be.</P> <P>Do you discuss these with your partner at all?</P> <P>My best for you, </P> <P>Jay</P> Sun, 26 Feb 2017 12:33:09 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/bad-thoughts-worse-after-fights/m-p/190270#M17924 BballJ 2017-02-26T12:33:09Z
