How I reduced my health anxieties

[SB]

Okay I admit I came upon my solution purely by accident but I encourage others to give it a try. I was in a program for anxiety, panic and depression based on cbt and not only has it helped me with those problems it also had the unexpected benefit of eliminating a majority of my health worries. I used to rush to the doctor at the first sign of trouble and now I am able to let things go and they usually go away on their own and I never end up going to the doctor. I used to worry about everything but now I am able to counter my thoughts in a tea form whenever I get all worked up about my health and it calms me down and the symptoms almost always subside.

Hi SB

Excellent news!! Glad you're able to manage better and feel better in yourself.
Once we're able to change our "worry" or thinking pattern, that's the hard part over.
Take care.

Florence.

Thanks everyone for the nice replies! Florence you are so right about being over the hard part once we change our worrying thinking patterns. I just wish I would have figured that out and learned all the cbt exercises a long time ago, but no sense dwelling on what can't be changed right :)
