Aches and pains send my worrying into overdrive!

[Rainboww]

I had a migraine about a week ago (I hardly ever get them) and I have had headaches every afternoon since then.
I'm also getting pains down my left side after eating also and it's sending my worrying into overdrive...

Any little ache and pain I get and I worry it's something serious... How do you find the strength to ignore it?

It's not soo much ignorin aches and pains (symptoms) it's more accepting them for what they are , it's anxiety and they are harmless , take your focus away from them by being active/occupied , don't Google and change your thoughts towards the symptoms (it's just anxiety) . It's not possible to ignore what you feel . It's the hardest thing trying to accept something you hate but it's the only way through the anxiety nightmare

The headaches afyer the migraine could be tension headaches due to stress about the initial migraine or worrying why you had one
