I've been "hypochondria free" for a while now, so to speak, but it's come back recently.
A few nights ago, I slept on the couch (as I usually do), and I slept on my right shoulder wrong. I probably hit a nerve or cut off the flow. When I woke up, everything was fine other than my arm feeling a bit sore when stretched, and a bit heavy too.
...being a hypochondriac, this didn't end well.
I'm once again constantly worried about getting some sort of rare brain tumor, the deadly kind, the one that'll kill me before I have a chance to get it fixed or cured or say goodbye, that kind. Mainly, DIPG (google at your own risk, I'm pretty certain I'm here because I made the mistake of googling survival statistics). I'm 17, it's really scary for me. When this stuff happens, as I said earlier, I did google (big mistake probably) and I'm just really scared of, y'know, dying.
I won't lie, my right arm still feels heavy, but only when I really think about it. I'm used to psychosomatic things like that before, like for example, I got headaches today after I thought about something growing in my head for a long time. I don't seem to exhibit any other symptoms of what I'm fearing, though.
That doesn't change the fact that I'm still constantly worrying about this again. I'm going to go see my psych tomorrow, but I'm still really freaking out about this. I know better, I want to get it through that its just anxiety, but its still not helping. I'd like for someone to help talk me out of this state of mind if possible.
Thanks beforehand.
