hello my name is sandra and i went through a pregnancy scare .. it's been two weeks since the incident and i've already gotten my period and had negative pregnancy tests, so it should be clear that im not pregnant, right ? my boyfriend didnt ejaculate inside me and i know thats the only way a baby can happen..

but even with these facts, i'm still feeling constantly anxious and worrisome .. my anxiety and fears wont go away and i still fear that i might be pregnant even though its clear by now that i'm not .. why do i still feel like this? any tips on how to get over this fear? i cant do anything normal anymore without worrying and being scared and i hate it :( i cant seem to get the fact that 'im not pregnant' through my head. how do i make myself stop worrying? thanks

Hi, Anon.

Thank you for your post.

The only thing I can recommend that may help is counseling, talking it over with a professional. He or she may be able to help you take your emotions out the situation and look at the facts. It's an option if you feel you are not moving forward.
