Health anxiety is so crazy to me because what do you mean I have a bruise that I’ve convinced myself has been there too long and that means I’m dying

Did you get it checked out?

Same you don’t know how many times I’ve gone to the ER for having anxiety attack because I think I’m dying or I have cancer 🤣🤣 I think it comes from us getting older now because like last year I wasn’t even thinking about my health, but I don’t know why I’m so self-conscious about my health now and why I’ve been paying attention. I think it’s because I’m about to be 26 and that means I’m four years away from 30 and people say your 30s are still young and people say cancer doesn’t show up until you’re like 45/50 but still everyone’s body is different! And plus I just feel like I have to catch things NOW before they do turn into cancer when I’m 40-50 years old

I'm the same way. The number of times I'll have a random ache in my arm and be all, "WELP, I GUESS THE OL' TICKER'S FINALLY ON ITS WAY OUT!" before realizing that, nope, just a tiny muscle ache. 🙄
