Hi there.
Today I finally accepted I have health anxiety.
So far over the last 6 months or so I have tormented myself with the thought I have heart problems, lung cancer, ovarian cancer, MS, and cervical cancer, lupus, and lymphoma.
I have been my GP's best customer. I have had all manner of tests, from ecg's, chest xrays, scans, all kinds of blood tests, smear test etc. Thankfully all have been completely normal.
I have come to accept that I will constantly worry about my health but I am going to be kind to myself from now on. As long as I can walk, talk, eat, sleep then I can't be that ill.
I'm not sure what the future will bring but I'm just trying to take it one day at a time. I have finally stopped smoking, almost 3 weeks now.
I am going to do my best to stay off Dr. Google, but I accept that I will still no doubt be super aware of any symptoms I have and there will be times when I worry constantly.
If anyone else wants a buddy to maybe message then give me a shout.
Love and peaceful thoughts to all xxx
