Holly have you joined the non Googling ban on here yet :o

Well I have always suffered with health anxiety & believe me Dr Google is not our friend

If you go on there you will believe you have everything & more

When I joined here , it was suggested I came on here instead & have done ever since

I no its hard to resist , I still get tempted , but I no it will make me worse :o

Everyday , say for today I will not look on Google , no matter how tempted I feel , come on here , post , talk , read , & tell us you have resisted if you like & we will support you in trying to continue resisting , you can do this :)

Love

I'm with you on this Holly.

My fingers are twitching to get Googling even though I know it'll just frighten me more.

I've re-joined the non Google club after a spectacular fall off the wagon last week where I terrified myself into trembling with fear - yet I kept on going trying to find reassurance - and did I - of course not!

Stick with it Holly.

Can't they put a notice on it , like this site can damage your health, like they do with fags.

I am glad i found this website. I suffer from anxiety, i have feel every single symtomp possible, from eye problems, headache, lack of breath, chillings, nauseas,etc. i have been to different doctors, never found a problem.

I keep searchin online for hours, my husband and my family, is starting to complain because i stop doing things i used to do before, even with my kids. This is driving me crazy!
