Health anxiety

Hi everybody I am new here. I’m 22 and have suffered anxiety since 2013. I have recently started having health anxiety about a year ago. First I was worried about my heart and now I’m worried about low blood sugar, I keep getting shakiness and I’m scared that the doctors are missing it :( my anxiety has been out of control lately.

Hello there and welcome ! I am also new here ! I understand completely about the health anxiety ...I have suffered with it all of my life ...convincing myself I am dying ...constantly checking my body for lumps ...googling symptoms ...going from Doctor to Doctor thinking they don't know what they are talking about ! It is a struggle that people don't understand unless they are going through it and a constant worry that is always in the back of your mind ! Hoping you find comfort in knowing you do not struggle alone with this !
