My health anxiety is killing me

I got water up my nose and felt it in the head apparantly it doesnt go to the brain because it is encasesd. But then googled it and found something called ameoba bacteria that eats your brain.

This is the extent Of my health phobia

Please help im going mad! :(

You have zero to worry about. Water that goes up your nose just sloshes around and goes down your throat, doesn't even get close to your brain. Any nasties in the water get dealt with with by our immune system the same way as if we drank the water.

Google is the enemy of us health anxiety sufferers, you are guarenteed to find the worst thing possible that could be wrong and waste precious time worrying over nothing.

Have you been swimming in the sewers recently? If not relax!
