Hi McC, welcome

I have a friend with Ross River. It can be life changing and its becoming more common.

Worry doesnt prudyce anything but ulcets. It can make you more punctual but little else.

Nicknamed "the worrier" at 12yo and now 61 I know the feeling. But at 31yo I got hood advice from my therapist. He identified that my thoughts were unrealistic, mainly full of fantasy. Of course I believed they were real.

So therapy might be beneficial.

Below are some threafs worth reading. Take thr plunge and read on. Post anytime.
