[serious] What something that genuinely makes you feel scared?

Finding out I have an STD. I made a lot of poor choices concerning my sexual health. Multiple partners and not really protected. This was two years ago.

Even though I’ve had blood tests and ALL the STD tests 12 times since I’ve gotten into a stable relationship, I get this stomach drop feeling whenever I think about the possibility that I could develop HIV or something.

I get so anxious about it that I schedule a test again just to make sure. Even though nothing has changed.

Ps: I went to a small Christian school so I don’t know a lot about STDs. the way I was taught all my life was a big scary mess and I am not sure what’s true and what’s not.
