would it be rude of me to suggest my brother sees a therapist? he has health anxiety with his ear ringing/ everytime he feels sick and i just really think his life would be so much easier if he got on some anxiety meds

I had it super severely, only thing that fixed me was way too much acid. I can’t say I recommend it

Yep, rocked back and forth in a dark bathroom for hours. Forgot what words were made of and thought I was gonna die, then didn’t even know who I was anymore. Pretty crazy shit
