I have health anxiety. Two years ago I was put on the cancer pathway, had a mountain of tests including a gastroscopy, colonoscopy, abdominal cat scan. I was absolutely terrified the whole time, and really didn’t deal with it well at all.

Im feeling pretty rubbish at the moment, I need to have some blood tests, but I can’t bring myself to have them. I’m so scared that one thing might be minorly out of whack and I’ll go into a spiral where I end up googling everything that could possibly be wrong, and don’t get out of bed for days convinced I’m dying.

Please give the kick I need to just get them done. I’m so fed up with feeling like this. I’m so fed up with the constant anxiety I have.

I don't know what to say that will best motivate you, but here's a big kick up the arse. Go on! Feel the anxiety and do it anyway!
