Anxiety does play little tricks on you. Anxiety makes you fearful about everything, and so it'll also make you fearful about not recovering too. Negative thoughts are a side effect of anxiety. You think recovery only happens to others. I thought exactly like this too. But you will get through this. It is a complicated condition, though I found reading about it began to unravel the scary mess I found myself in which helped take a lot of the fear away and put me onto one path. Once you're out of it all you can see it for what it is. Nobody knows what this is like. You can explain it to be people but they still wouldn't get the full horror of living with this terrifying thing daily. You feel alone, are afraid to talk about it for fear of being mocked or not believed, and you spend your days trying to find your way out of it. You will get back to being yourself again.

Is there a subject matter that maybe scares you more than straight up gore? Mine would be serial killers they really exist. I can't read books about serial killers.

I don't like the super-natural - and do they really exist? I never watch movies on this subject as it freaks me out for ages.

Everyone fears not getting better - its just anxiety making you think negatively. I thought exactly the same. Don’t try and get past it - let it be there, relax towards all feelings, slow yourself down, allow the thoughts to come and go and don’t engage with them.
