Hello everyone, I am 18 years old and I have been struggling with hypochondria and panic attacks for 1 year, at least I hope it is just hypochondria. Еvery day I think I have cancer, whether it is leukemia or lymphoma. At first it was not so scary, but over time I began to feel so tired. I took a few blood tests, they were all good, but lately my hemoglobin and iron have dropped, which scared me even more. I have no symptoms other than fatigue. Should I be scared? is this a consequence of excessive thinking? I'm afraid to tell my parents. I sink deeper and deeper as if there is no way out. Please help me!

Hello I am also very scared of Leukemia. I think you have fatigue because you just don’t sleep well. I was so terrified when my gums got swollen and started to bleed a little two weeks ago. I couldn’t sleep because I was terrified and that was my reason why I have fatigue. I am only 15 years old and my worst fears are cancer and sepsis. And your hemoglobim and iron can be dropped because of stress or bad food. When I tell something to my parents they also just laugh on me.
