Jake Quickenden has been struggling with health anxiety for over 10 years after he lost both his father and brother to cancer. He joins Lorraine live in the studio alongside our Dr Amir, who will give his advice on how to cope.

So relatable. I feel exhausted from worrying all the time about my health and it’s ruining my life
I can feel you man
same. i hate this condition with a passion

I recently lost my mum to cancer. Hearing this makes me feel so seen and heard, I feel so relieved and kinda emotional, I'm not gonna lie. For me, I think about how my mum must have felt when she heard she got diagnosed (she was terrified of dying). If I get in that loop, I feel panicked, so I just take a deep breath. I'm slowly getting better, but it is one heck of a battle and it's exhausting at times.
I’ve been dealing with exactly this after losing my mom 3 years ago. She was only 59. Some of my symptoms relate to me obsessing about my breathing and thinking i’m not breathing right or not getting enough air. And also thinking i’m going to randomly get a heart attack. It’s awful to live with but have been currently seeking help for it. Distracting myself has been a big help. Hope I can overcome this
Same my mom has had a lot of health issues. She was diagnosed 15 years ago with an autoimmune disease. I didnt realize then but that's when my health anxiety started I thought I was sick after tons of apts, web Mding, and er visits eventually progressed into gad and panic attacks. My mom recently had an aneurysm and is in the CCU. I'm so close to her its the worst feeling. The health anxiety is kicked back in full force.

Had this for most of my life, I remember it from such an early age. It is debilitating. People don't understand how awful it becomes.
Can 100% relate to this
I can relate so much it got soooo bad for me at one point
I can feel myself getting bad again
Has anyone heard of the anxiety guy? I highly recommend watching him or listening to his podcasts. I've come a long way since I found him on here.
Just subscribed to the Anxiety Guy on your recommendation, he's brilliant... so helpful and it's nice to know you're not the only one going through this👍
Yup been watching him since 2020 now! He also has great health anxiety affirmations as well! Those work really great!! 👍 😁

It sucks I worry so much I’m so exhausted and my parents have basically given up on me😊
Same
I got it after seeing my grandma pass away infront of my eyes because of cardiac arrest. I thought I've overcome it but I'm just lying to myself. I still struggle with it.
I have this and also about other people close to me health. It’s awful
I can totally relate to everything Jake as said. It’s a copy of me
I think I’m going through this
you probably are
I just got over my health anxiety it lasted a month.
It absolutely sucks
Well done jake
It is an absolute torturous disease. Tortured by your body and your mind it drives you to suicide 😢
That is one of the best comments I’ve read on this. You have absolutely nailed it.
Yeah, I'm not suicidal at all but sometimes my anxiety gets so overwhelming that your thoughts usually tend to go to these dark places but of course I could never do such a thing but it's terrible when your mind thinks those things without you even wanting to think about it.🤦
Not suicide. People with health anxiety are more likely to be afraid to die.
Health anxiety is actually a fear of death
I can’t play sports properly because my mind is always thinking these things during it
No peace of mind for someone who suffers from health anxiety😔
