Hello sisterhood,
I think I'm suffering from health anxiety! It hasn't really happened to me before (as in before this year) and I'm feeling completely alone here! I already know I need to get off Dr google, as that is doing more harm then good! So far this year I have thought I have had at least 3 types of cancer! And today for some reason I looked up symptoms of a brain tumor and thought 'fuck I have all of these' but now I have calmed down... I actually don't have any...maybe a headache now and then...but not even bad enough to take panadol! Any suggestions on what I can do to stop this? Is going to the gp a start? I don't want to live like this. It's absolutely horrible.
Thank you x

Start with your GP
Hello! I'm a psychologist. Anxieties such as this are really common and quite treatable. I would go and see your GP and get a referral to a psychologist. Good luck :)
