Welcome stace!

I am new too and suffer from health anxiety among several others, including major panic episodes.

I am so grateful to have found this site as well.

Like others with health anxiety, I have the typical - brain tumor headaches, stomach cancer nausea, heart attack heartburn and lung cancer shortness of breath.

A doctor once told me that in 98% of cases, the symptoms turn out to be nothing. That helped me for awhile, until my mind decided that I was one of the 2%.

*sigh*

PM me anytime as well. I have been to the doctor/ER/Specialist probably hundreds of times over a period of 25 years for my strange symptoms, so I do understand what you're going through. *hugs*

Hi seebra,

Thanx for getting back to me :yesyes: its horrific eh, i just cant control the thoughts at all, i'm not as bad with the anxiety leading to painc attacks, but the anxiety is always there, the symptoms for me include tightness of the chest and stomach constantly in knots, which make me into believing there really is something wrong, i've just turned 26

Hello Stace,

With regards to general anxiety, I found that Cognitve Behaviour therapy was very effective in tackling almost all of my symptoms and within a couple of months, if you stick to it.

There are also many 100% effective methods of eradicating panic attacks. I had these for many years, however once they were diagnosed, I was able to put a stop to them in just a few weeks and have not had an attack since.

I imagine most people on here, appreciate how bad these conditions can make you feel at times, but keep the faith and they can be conquered, completely and permanently.
