Health Anxiety is a scary thing....

Unfortunately with health anxiety we find into every little ache, pain, twitch and feeling then our minds run wild and the symptoms begin. I have had loads if blood tests, scans, trips to the doctors and ER with all results being normal and they can't find anything. It's good we now know that it's not this that or the other but yet we keep searching and thinking it has to be something yet it's actually all in our head. It's so hard to come to terms with the fact it's in our heads as the symptoms are real and scary so it it has to be something right? Wrong......I have learned now that it's anxiety and I now sit there and say go your hardest which sometimes it scares the hell out of me but I know nothing is going to happen to me it will pass and I need to stay strong. Sending you all lots of hugs and reassurance that you will be OK xx
