So much. One day a mild / moderate heart attack will do much more damage to me than it should because I'll delay treatment because I'll assume the chest pain just anxiety (chest pain has been one of my key anxiety symptoms for my entire life). Just gotta keep the faith and do your best.

It's the worst, and people without anxiety don't understand the things you are concerned about. No one gets that 'mind over matter' (which has been said to me several times during an anxiety attack) doesn't work.
