Health Anxiety driving me crazy!!

Anyone have any tips or advice on how to overcome this?

Any good books or YouTube videos?

Since I had a health scare in July, I have convinced myself I have been terminally ill numerous times. I've diagnosed myself with lung cancer, stomach cancer, copd, oesophagal cancer, kidney cancer, kidney failure, HIV, lupus, meningitis, DVT, ovarian cancer, and many more. I've currently convinced myself I have lymphoma due to enlarged lymph nodes and I'm a mess...constantly checking myself and worrying non-stop.

I'm trying CBT but thinking a good book or video might make something 'click' and make me see sense.

The anxiety guy on YouTube had some great videos on health anxiety. Book wise ‘self help for your nerves’ by Dr Claire Weekes is very good also abit old fashioned but the best book for anxiety I’ve read hope these help you a little.
