Health Anxiety Or brain tumour?

I'm a teenage girl, I'm a raging hypochondriac aswell. Couple weeks ago i was convincing myself i had bowel cancer but now I'm convincing myself i have a brain tumour. So basically I fainted the other morning but My parents seem to think it was because i was sunburnt and came out a steaming hot shower but i'm not sure because ever since all i've felt is dizzy and disconnected from my body, and lightheaded and i keep forgetting little things. Also after i fainted i had tinnitus in my ear. I tried to tell myself i'm okay im just worrying because i can still go out and do things, but it's past the point of convincing myself and i'm so worried and stressed can anyone help?

  • Hi Chasingthestars,

    A very warm welcome to our forum. I can understand how worrying this may all seem to you, but the chances of you having cancer are very slim. Have you discussed your anxiety with your GP? It sounds as if this might be the best move, if only for your own peace of mind.

    Kind regards,
