Dr google...where do i start how google made me stressed,depressed and fueled my health anxiety and almost nearly made me lose my boyfriend. So out of no where came this sudden onset of health anxiety when i started university and constant reminders about how vital it is to get the meningitis jab so then i started googling things and i had diagnosed myself with all sorts when in reality there was nothing wrong with me and for the next 2 months i constantly googled i even prioritised google over my university work I drove myself into an oblivion thinking i had all these problems when i was fine then one day my boyfriend had always been understanding however I had drove him crazy constantly googling asking him things 24/7 and to nearly lose the one you love the most was a massive wake up call i stopped and realised im the one who has drove myself into this horrible depressed state all because of google which my doctor told me 95% of information is inccorect and how google has caused people to develop depression, mental health problems etc so if i have one bit of advice please please STOP googling it does nothing but cause unwanted stress,depression and makes anxiety 1000 times worse so to all people who suffer anxiety dont google ive gotten over my health anxiety and i am so much happier and content just by not googling, google is a misery maker and makes people with anxiety go insane so please i cant stress this enough as hard as it will be at first please do not google.
