Health Anxiety is Back

[HeyItsThatKidd]

So...I've discovered that I've lost a total of 12 pounds in the last month...from 160 to 148...I'm once again terrified but I will note that I am in A Marching band and just completely a month long Band Camp with pretty intense conditioning and I don't eat breakfast, but I do try to eat as much as possible for lunch and dinner and maybe a little after we're done practicing. However, I believe losing that many pounds in such a short time is an issue. I'm also worried that I was a victim of Misreading last year during my appointment for my health scare that was determined as Pneumonia... if anybody still remembers that story....I'm just afraid and I'm dreading yet another terminal illness...

Your weight loss may well be due to the intense band practice. Now that it is finished and you can return to your normal routine your weight is likely to return to its usual set point.

Hi Hey, I know how you feel. I am constantly afraid that I am going to die from a heart attack or stroke, even though I been seen by doctors who give me a clean bill of health.

You are young and the odds of you having a major illness are miniscule. You may want to consider seeing your doctor to get on a mild anxiety med., at least until this passes
