5 Tips for Coping with Health Anxiety

[Fraser]

One of the biggest things I need to work on is not googling symptoms over and over and going nuts on research. To that end, whenever I feel the urge, I replace reading about various forms of cancer with researching and reading about my actual problem: health anxiety. Below is an article I came across this morning that might be helpful to you if you are on a similar journey.

Hi Fraser, thank you so much for providing such valuable resources. I’ve ordered the “Overcoming Health Anxiety” book you suggested. I have 50 years experience with this beast. Many times in”remission” and far more times out of control. I realize, once again, I have to do the work. Thank you for the reminder. Peace and good health be with you (and may anxiety take a trip to the never ever) lol
