I have developed a fear of heights that has interfered with my ability to enjoy my favorite winter sport...snow skiing. The anxiety produced when confronted with height creates what is near panic. The fear only exhibits itself primarily on the ground and outside.. I do not have a fear of flying in a jet airplane or inside tall buildings. It has become a real problem for me to enjoy skiing.

To overcome anxiety, one must understand the logic of why the brain is feeling threatened, it sends messages to the body saying its under threat. New pathways need to be created to overcome the old programming.

Well tomarows a big day, I decided that Im feeling well enough to drop from 3mgs to 2 mgs, I had some doubts last week, as I did have some days when I felt beaten & weak, but I cant explain what happened but after 8 days of feeling like a walking zombie, I snapped out of it, maybe its my vitamins or maybe my body got adjusted to the lower dose? Whatever happened it feels good to feel normal.
We have an HIV forum here at Medhelp. Have you posted your question there yet?
You've had all the tests you need and so did your partner. Of course you know you don't have HIV. I do understand that this can be a huge fear for some people and hard to believe you don't have it even when all of the tests say you absolutely do not. If you can't get over your fear I would recommend seeing a counselor to help you with this.
See a Dr, we can't diagnosis you.
