I have bad health anxiety to the point where every ache or pain sends me into a spiral and my thoughts turn to something life threatening all the time its exhausting. I get palpitations or chest pain and i automaticalky think it heart attack . Get pain in lung area and i convince myself its a clot in lung or leg pain is a clot . Ive had a stress test done an echo done and a ct calcium score done and the heart tests have been ok but my mind cant or wont accept it . Just now had a sharp stabbing pain in my lung area around the back and automatically panic is setting in and im thinking all sorts of fearful scenarios. Its physically mentally and emotionally draining me

Have you looked into therapy?

Am in therapy . Just cant seem to stop or change the automatic thoughts concerning pain or any kind of symptom.
