Health anxiety

Hi

I suffer with health anxiety, I always feel sick when it flares up and then I can't go out because I am afraid of being sick when I am out. Does anyone else feel like this?

Im exactly the same at the minute. The minute I panic when im out it comes on and I have a strong urge to vomit.

I say if your gonna be sick just let it happen. At least thats what im trying to tell myself. I know leaving the house is easier said than done. I find it hard going anywhere on my own. I find it hard being around large crowds and find it hard in confined spaces like taxis etc these places trigger my nausea and could wind me up in bed for days not wanting to leave the house.

I send you big hugs, i hope you feel better soon xox

Thank you, I was thinking of try hypnosis x

I have health anxiety as well. When I feel anxious I don't find the urge of doing anything besides laying in bed and sleeping. Or if I'm out all I want to do is go home. I turn to exercise and physical activity. I've been going through a lot of stress and its been helping me a lot.
