Health Anxiety

[claret3189]

Morning everyone i feel like i am going mad and just wondered if anyone else experienced this. I do struggle with anxiety in general but my health anxiety is through thr roof at the minute. I think its heightened by the pandemic.
I feel really alone with these feelings and not sure how best to deal with them.
Does anyone else have any advice

Sorry to hear you are going through this. I to have a lot of experience with health anxiety, it can be awful and take over your life. Sorry I don't have much advice but I wanted you to know you're not alone. I am always happy to talk privately to you.

Is there anything that triggered this other than covid ? Is there a certain illness that you are worried about?
