Hyper aware of own thoughts

[biffjeff]

I'm quite the hypochondriac and my latest worry is that I'm developing schizophrenia, something I'm sure a lot of you fear or have feared in the past. I've been obsessed with music since I was a kid and have always had songs in my head, but now I'm hyper aware of my own thoughts it seems constant, with related words triggering songs instantly from the moment I wake. I even hear songs looping as I'm waking. I also latch onto sounds, murmurs or thoughts that seemingly pop out of nowhere (probably just subconscious) as a sign of something more sinister. I know it's almost definitely just a potent combination of GAD, health anxiety and OCD (undiagnosed) but it's just exhausting. Does anybody else get this?

Have you ever seen a psychologist to get a true diagnosis?

I'm always having weird thought as I am half awake/asleep. Schizophrenia is genetic so if nobody in your family has it you won't get it. (Learned this college hope the professor was right??) anyways I'm also a hypochondriac myself! Health anxiety is it for me.  I think you're mind is focused on these thoughts and therefor is latching onto the trigger words. Try to keep your mind busy and be active. I doubt it's anything serious! Well anxiety is serious but you know what I mean
