Me blood test said that I’ve got very high cholesterol. Like, VERY high. Cholesterol at 4 mmol/L is considered very high and mine is 7…. Basically DOUBLE of that.
I’m actually terrified I’m going to drop dead of a heart attack or stroke at any moment.
I just feel like as soon as I become an adult I’m just hit with all these medical issues and it’s really depressing me. Like I’m only 21, why do I need to be worrying about having heart attacks and strokes and early dementia?
So basically now I need to be on medication for life for my cholesterol yayyyy another pill 💊 now that’s 5 pills I take daily. I can’t believe just a couple of years ago I was a normal person who didn’t need any medication for anything and now I’m taking 5 pills a day for various medical issues.
I know it could be worse, and I’m grateful that it’s not worse but I’m just sad. I don’t want to die young. I know your fate is your fate but I’m terrified.
I know the medicine is obviously going to lower my cholesterol to normal levels but I wish I didn’t need to be on a medicine for life (which may have side effects) I just wish I was normal.
I have medication anxiety, every time I take a new medicine I end up having a panic attack. Ugh I’m so dumb. I wish I wasn’t such a dumb scared idiot
But I just wish I was naturally healthy instead of depending on medicines to be healthy dyknow what I mean.. on the stremf 💔 I don’t even wanna stremf anymore I’m too sad rn
I’m sad and scared and on edge like I can’t chill out now until I start taking that pill. I’m gonna get it tomorrow but in the meantime I’m fretting. Like I’m in bed rn but I can’t sleep because I’m scared.

I'm 28 and I've been on blood pressure meds since 18. It sucks getting older and needing meds but look at it this way the odds of something bad happening are far less than if you hadn't gone to the doctor and gotten them.
You'll live a long life even with the meds don't stress it too much.
Oof I’m sorry to hear :( & yep that’s true that’s true!thx for commenting i appreciate it🫶🏻🫶🏻
