I was sick for the last year, I had neck pain and I couldn't eat very well. I would
slept late every morning. I also remember that I had been losing weight and I
was feeling very tired, so I went to the doctor. The doctor had prescribed many
pills for me, but that treatment did not work for me. I continued with the same
pains and in that period of time I had been checking my symptoms on the
internet, everything I found on the internet gave me anxiety and I was getting
worse.

I remember that I missed a lot of classes at the university and the ICPNA, I left
ICPNA for a month and I worried more about my health. At that time I was going
to travel to a university congress and it was postponed for the following month

I thought that I was not going to heal. I told my mother to find another doctor.
We went to the Bolivar clinic and there they gave me a more effective treatment
and the causes of my illness. It's true, I used to have a very stressed life
because I studied and worked at the same time. I also used to eat fast food in
the street and without realizing it, I had neglected my diet.

In the following months I felt much better. The body aches were gone and I had
regained my weight. I also exercised normally every morning.

I learned that in life you have to enjoy every moment as if it were the last. That
experience taught me to control my anxiety. Also to spend more time with my
family.I didn't think that would change my life.
