This sounds kind of weird, but my hypochondria has come back in really full force since November and I can't tell what's anxiety and what's other stuff anymore when it comes to things I'm experiencing.




I'm wondering, does anyone else randomly get random flashes of things from the past, kinda like your life flashing before your eyes? It's hard to describe. I have a really intense fear of dementia/diseases like that, so I was initially a little bit relieved by remembering stuff and being able to recall it afterwards, but then I saw this article about how life flashing before your eyes is a survival mechanism that pops up when you're at risk of dying or something sometimes. Now I'm freaking out that things aren't okay.
I got a clean MRI a few weeks ago, and talking it out with people who were trained in reading MRIs were able to put away my fears for a bit, but I'm kinda confused now.
Does anyone else have this stuff happen to them?
