For the past couple of years I have been suffering from severe health anxiety. I am constantly panicking that I have some form of cancer. Any twinge, ache, lump, mark, spot or mole will have me spiralling into a massive panic attack. I have been backwards and forwards to the doctors time and time again, had various exams, tests, scans etc that have all come back ok but I still can't stop obsessing about something being wrong. I google and spend ages checking myself in the mirror over and over again and if I find anything suspicious I convince myself that it must be something horrendous.
I am so angry and depressed that this has taken over my life. I am married and have 3 wonderful kids, I should be happy and enjoying my life but I am completely consumed by fear.
