can’t stop worrying

Hi,

I went to my GP a week ago to have some moles looked at and he has referred me to a dermatologist in hospital to check one. my appointment isnt for another week but I dont know how im going to wait that long. I'm terrified, I'm only 20 and have never experienced anything like this before. The mole has changed since my appointment and is now raised, I know it's not certainly cancer but I suffer with health anxiety and cannot get the idea out of my head. the mole is black and brown and very small but has a lighter patch around it and is changing quite quickly.

  • Don't suffer in silence. If you feel you need to chat it is a safe space. I understand how you feel completely as I am very scared at the moment , we are human and we have feelings and that's ok. I keep telling myself everything will be ok but I honestly don't know as the surgeon wasn't sure him self so all I can do is pray for good health again one day. I'm 24 and I've been poorly for a long time now unfortunately. Im sure we will be ok we are still young xx
