Health anxiety... AWFUL. so is all anxiety though.. Symptoms I've had.. Pain in just about every inch of my body, dizziness, throwing up, trouble breathing, feeling tired, sweating, just that awful uneasy anxiety feeling, bowel issues,.  Having health anxiety I also look for something off or wrong in my body, example, I used to feel lymph nodes, look at stuff on my tongue, feel for lumps (swear I would feel stuff that wasn't there).  There is seriously so much I can't even begin to list... How did I deal with this.. Went to the doctor, had tests done, knew I had to trust my doctors, and get on medication, anytime I would start to have anxiety I would tell myself... I went to the doctors had many tests, all came back fine, I am healthy.. Positive thinking... Sometimes I tell myself..... there are what 6 billion people in this world.. None of us are getting outta here alive, Might as well enjoy this life while i'm here... (not trying to scare anybody or spark anxiety)  Finding religion also helped me.

Hi there, I've been dealing with anxiety for two years now. It's THE worst thing! I have had all the symptoms, dizziness, nausea, heart racing, tingling, numbness, feeling like my throat is closing, shakiness, feeling "out of my body" and just not right.  It's hard to deal with everything, and it can be very scary! But just remind yourself that it's only anxiety and it will pass, also that it can't kill you! :)
