Hello everyone. New here, discovered this while googling symptoms of somethinf that was happening to me at that moment. Insane, I know.
I am a 29 yo female suffering from terrible health anxiety. Currently my back hurts between my shoulder blades. My sternum is sore. I have terrible reflux. Or an ulcer. Who knows. All of these symptoms so of course I google. I have esophageal cancer, then its a heart attack. Then its a liver disease. I cant help these thoughts, im petrified to go to the doctor afraid hell confirm my fears. Does anxiety cause anyone else actual physical symptoms? Is anyone else hypersensitive to pain in their bodies.
Sometimes I think this is worse than being sick. Its ruining my life.
This all began 6 yrs ago when I began working in the health field. I am in nursing school now ajd im afraid further knowledge will ruin my life. My career will drive me insane.
See how much I worry!!:unsure:
