Hi all,
This is my first post find myself trawling the Internet for some reassurance. I suffer from health anxiety which is getting worse. I lose days crying over some obscure symptom convinced its cancer. However I've now got a lump on my face. It's 2cm big and growing quickly. Gp appointment for tomorrow after already speaking and being told to wait and see if it goes in its own a couple of weeks ago.
How do you guys who have HA cope when a symptom you can see arises? In the past it's been headaches, weight loss, strange aches and pains that have caused me to spiral but now with an actual lump I can see and touch I am losing my mind. I've tried mediation but I cannot switch it off even for a few minutes
Suppose I'm just looking for any advice. Feeling lonely, scared and mental
