Living with Health Anxiety - My Story

Health anxiety is often misunderstood and seen as the punch line to a lot of jokes. In this video I take a look at my history with health anxiety. My first experience of it and how I've coped over the years.

    Ohh yeah... This makes perfect sense. This fear started to manifest in me a few months after my mom died, and it recently started to get worse. I'm getting help for it, though, and I'm making the effort to do better

    Thanks so much for posting this super comprehensive video. I have convinced myself I've had heart disease, ALS, bowel cancer. Right now the flavour of the month is Leukemia/Lymphoma, lung AND brain cancer.. I know that sounds ridiculous. The ALS fear phase took 5 months away from my life. Lying in bed, not doing anything. I'm also in my 20s..These are our healthiest years.. so dumb to be wasting some of them with ideas I've artificially manufactured.

    I can relate a lot to this. Had severe health anxiety for years and when there's a bad flare up it is living hell

    You don't know how much I relate with this video. Everything you said reminds me of me. It's a constant struggle, always something new.

    I've been suffering from hypochondria for a yr now. I thought i had brain tumors, heart disease, cancers, liver disease, kindey diease and more. Recently ive been stressed and have been having panic attacks now im getting muscle aches more so then ever and twitches. I was so aniouxs now im getting burning skin and nerve pains. My gp said it's not als or a real neurological issue other then the cns being in a heighted state from being filled with cortisol and shit for months. He said im should heal up naturally with time and hes right cause ive been calming down and relaxing more and the nerve pains and burning skin sensations are finally going away. Im still scared i have als or ms or something but he said there's no reason to suspect it
