Cherelle I just want to let you know when I was at my worst you saved my life and I literally mean saved my life. I'll be forever thankful for you and for everything you've done and continue to do for everyone
I’ve been struggling for years with health anxiety, but the last few months I’ve spiraled downwards really badly. Got back on medicine and therapy but my main trigger is cancer like you’ve said yours used to be. I find so much comfort in your videos. Thank you.
Maybe ths will change yo mind... we ALL get cancer since the time we are born... our bodies just destroy them everyday thru our immune system. It's not really the cancer , it's actually the fear that keeps u worried that it's a death sentence. I bet if they have a cure tomorrow u will be happy and releived. Guess what? Something else sooner or later will put fear in your mind...something new. It's a never ending cycle. Accept and move on.
I thank you for trying to help people. Anxiety is horrible. One thing that helps me is the attitude of gratitude is fortitude. Every single time you go down the rabbit hole, stop and think of 1 thing you are grateful for. Even if it's just one thing, think of it. Hold onto that thought for as long as possible. It won't always work, but it works mote often than not. Definitely helps more than googling.
My experience with health anxiety is so severe that I often pray I won't wake up. I used to go to my doctor for every single symptom and now I'm terrified of going to the doctor. As much as I hate medication, I wish there was something that could make me suddenly snap out of this. You are so blessed to have found relief and be able to help other people 💓
@@s.sflower Yes, this is currently me. I'm actually having a few concerns but so incredibly scared and now finding it hard to carry out my day. It's really sad 😔 I hope you are well no matter what❤️ God bless you.
@@lynnsq wow, thanks so much for replying to me... it's crazy cus I'm legit going through the same things. I do feel some symptoms that I want to get checked out but I just CAN'T! I can't call my doctor to make an appt, I can't imagine myself going through it. Then the anticipation on waiting for the actual day to arrive, waiting in fear to actually get seen, laying down in the table ughhhh. Thennn the worst of the worst is when the doctor is examining you in pure silence then actually waiting for the results. My husband is tired of me always complaining and I don't blame him, I'm annoyed with even myself. Idk what to do, I really don't. God bless you too 💕 thank you for even writing back.
@@lynnsq and yes it is hard to carry on with the day. Like right now I had to go out to do a few errands which is fine so I can get distracted but then these thoughts just pop in my head, I feel brain fog and just off... I started breaking down in tears talking to my husband on the phone. I feel like I look crazy!!! 😖😣 I've been trying breathing techniques which do help to calm me down but they don't get rid of my actual physical symptoms... I know I need to get checked out but I just can't 😣
@@s.sflower I can identify with everything you're saying. I'm not married but I constantly tell my friends and family about my fears of illness and ask for reassurance. Of course it helps for a moment but they aren't doctors so the fear just returns. Lately I'm so fearful that I'm not eating much. Its awful. Please feel free to reach out to me if ever you need to vent. I definitely understand how hard this is.❤️
I've been suffering from ALS/MS - health anxiety. I've always been a hypocondriac but lately my worrying has gotten so out of control that I can't stop seeking reassurance or taking a look at my extremities to see any sign of atrophy. I've also been experiencing percieved weakness and twitches which I never had before. I always come to your videos to calm myself down and not let this constant over thinking ruin my life. Thank you so much for your support
Dude get over it why fear it's all in the mind stop worrying all ure twitches and all will go get a good night sleep involve in some activity and stop thinking negative. If u have serious issues it will show up soon this anxiety plays with ure nervous system so it mimics all neurological disorders
@@Truerealism747 Yes, I even got pain on my forearms sometimes. I found out that avoiding coffee and excesive attention on those areas on my body, paired with breathing excercises helps relax the muscles
Love your videos they calm me down I try to distract myself with films an what ever but it doesn’t seem to be working at the moment I went to the docs after it being in my head iv got a tumor he said get your eyes checked so I did an hour later it come back clear then my brain calmed down with the thinking but he told me they start with dizziness since he’s said that I can’t get past that out my head now that my heads dizzy or feeling heavy it’s really stressing me out
I have been suffering from health anxiety 🙃 since 2 years ,recently I got chest pain and went for ecg test due to extreme anxiousness ecg came out abnormal and then did echo that was normal.
Iv stopped the checking for the most part cant seem to get passed #4 Avoidance, the fear feels too strong at times and theres still a bunch of things i used to love to do that i haven't done again in years bc of it. Is it a JUST DO IT type of thing? What are ways to approach overcoming that??
I have sarcoma health anxiety, because of this seemingly malignant lump on the side of my index finger, and it's incredibly debilitating 🥲. Gone to the doctors to get it checked out, and they performed an external analysis of it (not quite a biopsy, but essentially prodding around it and finding stuff out?) They insisted that it is most likely not of concern, but I doubt that, and I fear that they either missed something or they didn't analyse it properly, and it's stressin' me out 🥲. I've learnt to at the very least, not try and prod it and mess with it, and I've diminished my symptom searching tendancies. I just hope I am not suffering from something, at all. Nobody wants that. Nobody wants to suffer, and thus no one deserves to. I'm only 18 this year 🥲. I got a lot to live for. I can't let, this thing get a hold of me. Cherelle, your videos have been incredibly helpful, and they have helped me in steeling my mindset on how to properly face any physical symptoms I may experience in my body. God bless you, and this community ❤
When I quit smoking weed anything that I did my heart rate will go up. Even showering it will go up to 140 and it will scare me. I kept on googling the withdrawal symptoms which aren’t bad like other drug withdrawals but if still was uncomfortable. I was scared to either feel dizzy or faint while showering but cold showers helped if I felt like that. Now my heart rate when showering goes to 110 or 115 because my withdrawals ended but I still have to deal with vitamin d deficiency which can cause heart palpitations by doing anything
Hi, my experience with sleep jerk is slightly different. I was getting them even when I was relaxed on holidays. I noticed that they get worse when I am tired but they are horrible as I am living with them for nearly 20 years. Any tips ?
yeah me too. I sometimes get convinced I have a undiagnosed illness, and I’m just letting myself die each day. But every time my doctors say it’s anxiety.
Yes!!!!!!! Going through this right now and it's horrible. Idk if I should force myself to sleep or stay awake just in case. I need help 😫 😓 but I'm too afraid to see my doctor.... ughhhhhhh
I’ve been avoiding going to the doctor. A couple years ago I stayed going to the ER and making appointments I felt better going to the ER or doctor now. Totally opposite now Iam in avoidance of going to the doctor now last time I went I had white coat syndrome and my blood pressure was thru thr roof
@@angelalowe6549 yesss this was legit me last year! I would go to the er and my appts like nothing.... but now I srsly can't even think about contacting my doctors office to make an appointment 😒 it's so horrible I hate it. Idk what to do
I don't know what to do, i know i stress out over health too much, but i know there is something wrong with me cause i have very bad eye floaters, and i'm only 16, any advice on what to do?
I’ve had floaters for yrs. Your brain will eventually will get used to it.. I work with an ophthalmologist. You can make an appointment and have your eyes checked. Floaters are not a sign of any other diseases. They’re very common . It’ll get better.
I have them too & im 18. I thought I had heart issues too but I was already checked w ekg, and echocardiogram, and they said it’s fine. The only thing is to try to ignore the floaters & distract yourself.
@@wassupg5272 bro literally same, my blood pressure was really high, and I’m skinny, so I thought I hat a heart issue. But how many floaters do you have, cause I can constantly see them and I have like 5 big ones
@@renderblair4675 yeah my blood pressure was high too. I had to be put on medication. But usually I see many random floaters, from big to small floaters. I don’t count them because theirs just too many, especially in sunlight or when my heart races or when I stand up quick.

If you don’t want cancer get your vitamins checked. Having low vitamins in your system can cause cancer and many more illnesses.
I would not to give advise about what causes cancer or not to someone who’s afraid of it unless you’re their doctor. This just increases fear

I used to love Grey's Anatomy before this health Anxiety started, now I can't watch it because it sends me into a state of panic
How do you stop? I honestly feel like I can't without feeling completely alone and isolated.

How can we get in contact with you personally?
Does anyone have concerns about health ... Afraid to go to any tests, have symptoms and don't know if it's anxiety or disease? I'm losing my mind ...
