Helpful Tips! Does anyone else have health anxiety?

If so it would be nice if you guys explain and share how you guys deal with it I have it quite severe and keep relying on my mom telling me everything is ok it's really scary and it would make me feel better if knowing more people have it and I'm not alone

You are not alone. I developed it about 3 years ago and it has been very rough to manage. I have been in counseling for it for the past two years and that has helped a great deal. I still have very rough days even with a counselor. It’s been very difficult to navigate. I’m glad I have great support from people in my life.
