Every sensation sets me off. Spiraling.

[Amw311]

Just when I started to feel a bit of calmness, letting go of my recent episode a bit...yesterday I ended up with a weird sensation above my belly button. A hard to explain sensation. Not a pain, not a numbness, more just a random localized pressure sensation. I had been wearing pants that were “high waisted” and very tight around the waistband so I thought maybe it could be that. But it started yesterday snd is still there today. And or course since it’s a strange sensation, my mind says “something neurological has got to be going on” whether it’s MS or something else. Can’t catch a break. Anyone else spiraling over every single sensation?

Yeah, that's health anxiety all right. Want some links to treatment?

This was months ago now...I had a pair of socks on all day and when I took them off, I had an decent indent in my leg from the socks (which is totally normal for most I guess). Made the mistake of googling and it was all bad stuff of course...mostly heart related. Since then, my health anxiety has been kicking into high gear.
