I am fed up with wasting my life with Anxity

An email from my friend:
“I feel anxious. Every little ache and pain had me worried about cancer disease.
All I do every minute of the day is worry and worry. I think I am dying every single day because of cancer. I have always worried about everything. Every ache and pain made me believe I have cancer. My obsession is cancer. Every ache or pain I have I think it is because of cancer.

I went to the doctor and she told me there’s nothing to worry about and I did not have cancer and my health was fine. I was diagnosed with general anxity disorder and she put me on anxiety medication xanex.

In real life I live my life everyday worrying about cancer. Everything turns into cancer in my mind.
I am fed up with wasting my life in this manner.
I am asking myself how can i achieve enjoying my life and how can i deal with this mental problem. Zanax medicine helped and I have had to talk with myself to convince myself. I hope i can find a solution.”

Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is an anxiety disorder, a long term illness affecting 3-4% of the US population, is characterized by excessive, persistent, exaggerated, chronic worry concerning events that are unlikely to occur.
