Hypochondria article

Hey guys, here is an article I thought you might find interesting and somewhat comforting. It’s all about how we tend to overreact to normal aches and pains in our body. Give it a read if you want.

It certainly seems an interesting concept. I suppose being more sensitive to the things we are experiencing seems a common factor with all forms of anxiety. I wonder, if we, the people with health anxiety, have a heightened feeling for pain or discomfort? Or we don’t have any comparison therefore we prepare for the worst.
