Does anybody still get anxiety symptoms despite feeling relaxed?

I think you will have to make a conscious effort not to "come across" triggers such as news articles and Dr Google plus scaremongering health websites, Mr Lurcher..You know it makes sense if you want to douse down the HA flames...?

Unfortunately, along with my HA, I also have a bit of a morbid fascination.

Few months ago, I was watching stuff about MMA, and came across something about a recent fighter who died after a fight - turned out he had a heart problem, and after some research, that sent me into a mini spiral thinking about possible heart issues within myself.

Yes, I would agree with what you say about your morbid fascination with all things health-related. The more extreme and sinister, the more it lures you in would you say?

This would probably apply to a lot of avid HAers on here. You can't resist the lure of googling/"researching " but don't know how to process the results appropriately because you are not medically qualified to make an accurate diagnosis- only one which is distorted by your hypochondria.
