Hello, I am new here and would appreciate some words of advice, comfort and wisdom if possible! For context I am 28 years old and used to suffer quite badly from health anxiety but have managed to keep it under control for around 4 years. Last week I found a lump in my breast during a regular breast check, its small and smooth and quite moveable (not massively so but you can definitely jiggle it about a bit). I saw my GP and he said it is most likely benign, but have referred me to the breast clinic to confirm this. The logical part of my brain says its nothing, but the panic side keeps catastrophising that its something more serious - its a week till my appointment and I have to work ect so if anyone has any tips on how to keep myself calm until then, I would really appreciate it :)
