I've always had terrible health anxiety, ALWAYS. Since I was a little girl. I can remember when I was about 4 or 5 I would lay in bed and cry all night because I was scared of catching the "tummy bug" of course, that was all I knew of. ( The things I would do to only be scared of the flu today! haha ) the older I got the worse it's gotten. Started with Leukemia, then a brain tumor, then a heart problem, lymphoma, leukemia again and again, osteosarcoma, and now it's a spinal cord tumor. It's just gotten to the point where I can't deal anymore. It's awful. I have tingly fingers and a little toe numbess making me think I am basically doomed.. I just can't kick the feeling that I'm really sick "this time." I know you all can relate to that one.
It's just made such an impact on my life and I'm completely lost. I'm an 18 year old girl and while I should be going out with my friends I'm hunched over a computer desk all day long googling every little twinge I feel.
Dang HA ): I'm just in need of some serious reassurance.
