thankfully not fiagnosed with any cancers yet, but anxiety has me absolutely convinced that i have leukemia and that i am dying lol. incredibly frustrating as  i find a lot of the symptoms i experience with anxiety line up with symptoms of leukemia so it's like i'm living in constant fear of my own fear...... going back into lockdown so i doubt i'll be seeing any doctors about this soon and won't be able to talk to anyone until january. need to stop googling my symptoms !!!

I know exactly how you are feeling, I struggle with health anxiety and I am in constant fear that a minor symptom or something slightly abnormal is cancer and that I do not have long left, but every time there seems to be a logical explanation , I had bad headaches constantly throughout the day for a period of weeks and then I was convinced I had a brain tumour or something! But turns out I need glasses! But I know how you feel you aren't in this alone, just make sure you speak to people about how you are feeling as I think that helps me to ease my mind

Hi 

My name is Kod

I also suffer with severe health anxiety. I look at something I think I have cancer.I now think I have skin and bowel cancer because. It is controlling my life and not sure what to do. Any tips will help please.  

This is so relatable. Health anxiety is awful... My doctor's know about it but won't discuss it with me and can be quite dismissive (they are great for everything else). When I have something that is not normal for me I automatically think that I have terminal cancer and won't see my little boy grow up . I try to stay away from Google but as previously mentioned it's like your looking for it to tell you 100% that your fine or not.... I am happy that I have found this page as k thought I was alone and going crazy with thoughts. (I will rarely second money incase I need it for my funeral !!). It's exhausting. Also your right anxiety has so many different symptoms that can be misplaced as something else. Anyway thankyou for allowing me to post. Have a lovely day Xx
