I can’t imagine going a day without worrying about getting c*ncer or some other horrible disease

Post Content

I’ve struggled with mild health anxiety since I was a kid (thanks, Mom!) that got a million times worse when COVID started. I worked with a therapist for a couple years and got my health anxiety from debilitating to manageable to much much better. For the past couple years it’s been a low hum in the background. I don’t spiral out over it anymore, and I don’t have rushes of impending doom about it, but it crosses my mind at least once every day. It feels frustrating to never fully abandon it. I don’t get how others are free from this.
