Totomei hi CrackerLover, i can totally relate with what you're going through since i'm clinically diagnosed with anxiety disorder. irrational fears are pretty terrifying because they feel REAL. when i was younger my coping methods for fears like this was, like Aria mentioned, deep breathing. calming music and music in general was a HUGE coping skill for me. when i listened to a song that related to my moods and emotions, it was uplifting and helped ease the stress and fear because it felt as the music over-took my fearful thoughts and made me think what was reality and what was fiction. as i aged and developed more coping skills (which i hope will happen for you too), i began to better push away these fears and come up with more rational reasons for people not contacting me after a few hours or not replying to things right away. i used to fearful my mom had been in horrible car accidents when she went out to dinner alone and was eating at her usual restaurant that had bad signal, and she couldn't answer my calls or texts all the time. i think the best thing for you do at this time is try to keep calm as to not wear yourself down-- and maybe take my advice and pop some headphones in with soothing music. your friend is most likely safe and sound and probably busy with something at the moment. i hope you feel better, i really do. i can relate so well it makes me feel for you and want for you to be calm and happy. I find it calming that you understand what I'm going through. I do try to listen to music. Sometimes it feels like it's not enough though...
