Anyone else feel like this?

[cry]

Hi everyone,

I suffered quite badly from health anxiety just over three years ago, since then it’s been manageable but I’ve been having a bad time with it the past few weeks after stomach issues which have brought all those worries back.

I’m 27, and convinced that I just know I’m going to get cancer or something and die early. Does anyone else feel like this? I know it’s impossible to know, but I just feel like deep down I know this will happen. Even as I type this I know it’s silly, but just wondered if anyone else gets convinced by things like this? This part of my HA then brings on depression because it makes me think what’s the point and I find it hard to enjoy anything.

And - just to add - I don’t have anything to base this one. My Nan is 95 years old and has actually been told by doctors she’s remarkable for her age. My other nan died young from an accident, but was diagnosed with breast cancer in her late forties.
