Alway Scared

[always scared]

I found out tonight the hard way that this board is just as scary as google.

I came on here for some reassurance and I walked away more scared :weep: I am such an idiot. When will I ever learn to stop this madness

Yeah, unfortunately health anxiety can be very triggering to others with the same fears.

What else are you doing to help treat it?

Hey, Always Scared, how are you feeling right now?

Unfortunately, health anxiety can make us selfish even to the needs of our nearest and dearest, much less internet strangers. It always makes me desperately sad when I see it on here.

This has happened to me before. I’ve come on here and ended up reading threads where someone’s listed symptoms/things they have googled about a disease. A lot of the time it’s something I haven’t even heard of but it ends up triggering me.

I’ve just learnt to only click on threads that I know are about something that won’t bother me based on the title.
