    Why do we chose to live like we are dying?

    ..... I have HA - I've had it for as long as I can remember and then today I had an epiphany.
    I live my life like I've got a disease.
    I always think I'm sick, even now with nothing wrong with me (according to the Dr's) I still think I have something wrong with me.
    I'm so fed up being like this.
    How do we change?
    I have IBS - and now GERD - they are both caused by anxiety.
    The only illness i have is caused by my mental health - ironic.
    I would be so healthy if my mind were healthy - as would you.
    As are we.

    We are healthy - the majority of us on this website are healthy, yet every day we search our bodies for an illness, we google the symptoms, we read about symptoms then in a week we have them..... we go to our Dr's who kindly perform the tests for us - we kinda waste tax payers money in a way .... the results come back clear, negative you're healthy.
    You don't have colon cancer (yet- we say)
    You don't have a brain Tumor (you missed it - we say)
    You don't have stomach ulcers (I will soon, so we better keep testing)

    We do this over and over again and we all hate it.
    Our minds are so powerful that we can allow ourselves to be in a constant state of panic and think it's normal.
    I've stressed my body out to a point where i feel like there is no return now.
    I feel as though it doesn't matter anymore - I'm sick .. I can't fight this IBS - it sucks I hate it but it's part of me now.
    I'm on prilosec for GERD = hate it but it's me now.
    I don't want to give up on myself but my dear people - wouldn't you have given up on us by now!?
    We need to fight for our sanity - for our health - we need a mantra every day that we say to ourselves.
    I AM HEALTHY.
    We need to TRUST our BODIES.
    They know what to do.... we need to trust our fate, our life, our Dr's and our minds.
    Re-programme our thoughts, our OCD. When you have that niggle - don't google. Kiss yourself, hug yourself and say it will heal. - If it doesn't after 2 weeks that warrants a Dr's visit.
    I"m babbling, I have nothing really to say I just want to trust myself.
    Please Admin don't change this .... it's relative to where it is.
    Lets help each other.

    I laugh when doctors ask you if you're otherwise fit and healthy, their records say one thing and my overactive imagination says another.
