I was born with ToF and have also always had anxiety. My therapist recently suggested I may have developed anxiety at such a young age due to being in and out of hospital settings/general stress of having heart surgery so young. I’m curious if anyone else has had a similar experience or thoughts?

      YES. I’ve had horrible anxiety my entire life and my therapist thinks it’s partially because i’ve always had to be worried about my health and i’ve had such different things to be concerned about than others my age. I personally also think it has something to do with the fact that there’s almost no one who has similar experiences and it’s a very lonely existence 😂
