I joined because I have health anxiety - I currently have a biggish throat ulcer which the doc has seen and diagnosed as a common ulcer, and is putting it down to me being so run down for so long with relationship problems.
but of course i am not sleeping because i have convinced myself i have mouth cancer. have been told to look after myself better, but hard to do that when so worried.
can't put it out of my head because it hurts, so diversion tactics are not working here.
I was hoping to go into the chat room but have to be a member for 5 days first so i will have to be patient.
i used to be agoraphobic but conquered it to a large degree but have had problems with going out alone for a good while again - it's never completely gone away but always rears it's head badly in times of stress.
looking at this post i look like a right moaner, but hope people here may understand.
my partner - who i am currently separated from, cites my "hypochondria" as part of what annoys him about me - trouble is, the more we fall apart, the more i get poorly and so on - a vicious cycle.
thanks for listening!
