Hey all. I'm not sure how familiar you all are with my health anxiety history, but my primary fears over the past several years were skin cancer and heart related stuff. The skin cancer worries stuck around for a while, but I guess it didn't last terribly long. However, I seem to have occasional dreams related to those worries, despite not having any apparent worries about it during the day.
I'm honestly not surprised that it crept into my dreams last night. I do a quick scan over my body every few months or so to keep an eye on the moles I have, and last night was one of those times. But still, last night I had a very strange (by strange, I mean it made no sense haha) dream related to skin cancer. It wasn't scary or intense, but related and - again - very strange / nonsensical.
What dreams do you have regarding health anxiety that you seem to have no apparent anxiety about while awake? Whether it's a past fear, or something you otherwise never think about? Curious to hear your similar stories!
