New to the group and very afraid

Hi everyone! So I've had anxiety for about 4 months now (I had it a couple of yrs ago as well) and I go to therapy for it. But I cant seem to shake my fear of mental illness and cancers. Im terrified I have ocd for some reason and terrified I have cancer because I have head aches (that I get from my mom by the way!). It feels like impending doom all the time and it's gotten better with therapy, like I dont have attacks just very unpleasant thoughts and anxiety. Any advice would be great! 18 y/o female
