nervous energy

Sometimes I feel like it's the beginning again, like I haven't moved a single step in accepting my condition. Lately I've been waking up with a nervous feeling that's been carrying on throughout the day. I'm nervous that this is forever and that time is running out in terms of work and disability support. I'm nervous that I won't be able to do the things that I love anymore.

The worst part of this thing is that it isn't like a common cold where I can feel it getting better over time. When do the doctors give up?
