Hi everyone, i'm new to this site and I'm so glad I found it. To cut a long story short, I'm Emma and i suffer with severe undiagnosed health anxiety ( no it is not my anxiety making me think i have anxiety, i actually do have anxiety but won't go to the doc about it! lol)
basically I am a nervous wreck and i worry every single day of my life about health conditions that could kill me. mostly the 'C' word. it's like saying 'Voldemort', makes me wrench.
I now feel as if my health anxiety has progressed severely over the past year, i even ended up in A&E on christmas day over the head of it. my family don't know, only close friends because people just don't UNDERSTAND. You can't just 'get over it' and think of something else..
Have any of you actually been diagnosed with health anxiety? if so, what is the procedure? i don't want to start going to to the doctor (I go way too much as it is) i don't want to go to just be pumped with depression meds.
Please help, losing the will.
