I really like this guy. I found his delivery very soothing in an assuring kind of way. It's almost like he is telling me "hey stop being silly and move on".
i was diagnosed with cancer when i was 13.it’s been 5 years since i fully recovered.i guess it’s really wrecked my mind to the point where i think that it will happen again and i’m gonna die.sometimes it’s just feel like everything doesn’t matter, because eventually i’m gonna be sick again
Being a hypochondriac since a kid it’s very hard. Just this week I thought I had pneumonia because I had shortness of breath. I believe my hypochondria developed from my aunt as we were very close and I experienced it second hand and I got it from her. I’m still learning how to control it. 🖤
I have this ever since I was a little kid, I would always go in anxiety mode whenever I feel like something's wrong with me. I just learned about this today, I am glad I am not the only one who goes through this everytime.. It really gets worse to the point where I couldn't even calm for a second. 😭
I had an acquaintance that did actually survive breast cancer, which was caught early. But it messed her up mentally, after she recoverd she always thought she had some other disease
I always think any muscle cramp, twitch, pain, or ache is MS. But all my tests always come out clear. But I'm still convinced that they missed something. Its disabling.
Yes! My calves have been twitching and I was convinced it was ALS. I also think I look jaundiced and think I may have liver damage or cancer that’s metastasized. The acid reflux is stomach or pancreatic cancer. Hypochondria is ruining my life. I’m so tired of checking myself constantly.
My eyes been twitching and my left arm been going numb and tingling. I am scared I have MS. I go to the neurologist in a few weeks and hope everything is fine. I definitely have what this man is talking about. I cant stand it any.lonher. I just started Paxil today but I have fear over it also. This sucks !
Gosh, the internet I swear is the worst with this illness. Like the worst thing is when you see people saying don't trust doctors on online forums. *shudders*
My mum jokes when I have stomach pains or I'm really tired. Once she joked that I might have Malaria, and another time something like rhino virus. Sometimes I just begin to accept my "death".
I'm convinced that I really have Hypochondria. I excessively have bad thoughts of having an incurable disease or any other common or rare diseases I hear all the time. Whenever I hear about a disease, I can't help but look up the symptoms right away. I constantly run check on my body to make sure I don't have lumps, rash, bruises or any other things that is a symptom of some kind of disease, and whenever I notice one tiny bit, I go see my doctor right away which is like every 3 weeks to a month! And even though doctors tell me there's nothing wrong, I still think there's something wrong and I always go and check with other doctors for a second opinion. I know I'm crazy and paranoid but I can't help it. It's even worse because not only do I constantly think of diseases but I also think of death everyday! I'm only 19 and I think of dying everyday. But like I said, I can't help it. :'(
Sxy Miinion the best thing to do and avoid and i know its hard now days with the internet, not to search it. dont look into it. dont get obsess over it...easier said than done. my mom still suffers it because she wont believe me when i tell her whats wrong with her, even though i suffered and got hospitalized many times for it. I already had anxiety disorder but i never knew growing up in country where mental and emotional illness is not well understood. I got obsessed with this medical book when i was about 11 and when i got my hands on it around 13, all i did was read it and think i had everything on the dam book! all i thought about was diseases ..terminal ones. I think it manifested around 13 but i had such worry way younger because i remember being afraid of sick people. I suffered..i suffered alot and in many years. when i was 15 my mom realize the problem was the book and she burnt it. but then i would watch x-files and think all those weird stuff are in me lol. i was i got older in the last few years, i made the commitment to not look up whatever symptoms i feel b/c i know it will start again. I still cant help but look into weird disorder but never associate it with me. So avoid looking it up! if you feel a thought coming on, distract yourself and remove yourself from whatever place you are..find people talk to! look up for funny or animal video..things you knwo make you laugh other times..good luck!
Sxy Miinion Hey im 12 and i think i have it to i had a headache and now im worried its a tumor not long ago i devoloped breast buds i thought it was breast cancer i cant help but look up symptoms i got pinworms a few weeks ago and they came back like last week and i was convinst i had a tapeworm...yes you heard me i cant count how much deadly diseases i thought i had i was thinking i had cancer in my rectum or intestine i thought i can a cervical cyst. My parents always tell me that i have hypochondria because everyday something else hurts i had problems with diffrence in my discharge i thought. I had vaginal vaginosis my mums mum had hypochondria and theres always something new its hard about being a child and constantly convincing myslef i have cancer ect.
I'm really bothered with some neurological serious illnesses. I'm so scared. Muscle twitches can make me feel like I have ALS or any serious disorders. It's killing me. I've been to different doctors and they said everything's fine. T_T
I have it. The doctors know I have it. I know it’s all in my head. After being in and out of the doctors every week or sooner. The doctor told me I’m a hypochondriac and explained it to me. I understand it’s all in my head. I also have PTSD and anxiety which doesn’t help my hypochondria either. With that said, here’s a new problem I’m facing. Since I now always think whenever I’m sick or hurt, that’s it’s just all in my head. I broke my foot in a few different places and it took me two weeks to go to the doctor. Because I didn’t know if it was really broke, or my mind was making me think it was. By the time I went to the doctor. It had already started the healing process. I only went to the doctor because the swelling was so bad my skin felt like it was about to rip open. The X-ray showed it was broke in several different places and started healing. Most of the bones broken were the floating bones or whatever the doctor was talking about. Said most of the time those bones have to be surgically removed after breaking but mine seemed to be healing fine. I kept my foot in a work boot after I hurt it, just in case it was broke. I never went back for a follow up. Surgery is scary. So far no issues with my foot in the past few years of breaking, so I’m good. Point being, I never know when I’m actually sick or hurt anymore. It went from one extreme to the other. Is there no level ground for someone like me?
One of my good friends is experiencing textbook symptoms of this but idk how to help he won't go to a pysch or a shrink he just wanders into ER rooms hoping they'll do surgery on him for his disease of the hour
I'm 14, female, and I figured out this morning that I have hypochondria while reading through a paragraph in my Health textbook. This video helped shed some light on a lot of things, and I'm glad I don't have to constantly worry anymore! ^^
@@pandakeen it's crazy how that comment was 10 years old, I had a chest pressure after running for few minutes, I related it to heart attack ever since then I can't stop worrying about it I'm convinced my heart is ruptured by running
I really have some conditions like severe constipation , constant headache , back pain and so many others. But none of the doctors could find anything. I've done many x rays and colonoscopy and endoscopy too. All for nothing 😐
My grandpa is a hypochondriac he drubbed his toe and though he needed a joint replacements and one time he was at the hospital after heart surgery (not major it was a biopsy) his chest hurt and he thought he was having a heart attack
I have hypochondria... my doctor put me on amitriptyline and it only made it worse. I got crazy hallusenations and was 100% sure I had suddenly become a schizophrenic...
I don't even know what to call my one I know I m suffering from hypochondriasis and still I am thinking I have a serious diseases I m only 14 come on!!!!
When i was kid I got traumatize from the film coraline where she enter in dimension and stuck there I think what if it happen to me im so scared then I saw this Rick n morty simulation think and im scare if it happen to me
I have fear of having Testicular Cancer and I keep hearing that I'm fine , but I worry day and night :( PLEASE SOMEONE PLEASE I NEED SOMEONE TO TALK TO I FEEL LONELY AND SCARED PLEASE :'(
i am hypochondriac too, and i was searching and i found a lump, you can imagine how scared i got, but i saw a doctor and it turned out to be nothing dangerous it just went away
I kind of suspect that my brother has this -_- he claims to be allergic to 90% of the food chart so far. so the food I can't have in the house is: cream of wheat, shellfish, bok choy, spinach, brussel sprouts, folgers coffee, brown rice, sleepy time green tea, hazel nuts and the milk hazel nut too, and sadly ect". he is like 28 years old and very petite and a stoner. I love every food above but accept shellfish, just a picky eater. but seeing my brother with this hypochondria is very annoying to "act" like he is allergic. but I think he is just acting even knowing he isn't allergic to anything. does that count as hypochondria? do I have an allergy? yes I do. but I don't want people to know I am because I am embarrassed and ashamed to have one.
All I know is that my entire life, starting with my parents and friends, I have been around hypochondrics. Since hypochondriac starts in the mind, add to it a suicidal ideation in these people, I have had to say no more! I have had to change my job, the people I associate with so I don't have people wasting my time and clinging to me mentally, physically and spiritually. I am a successful clothing designer, I like to travel. Hypochondriacs have a choice to either be happy or be sick and they are no longer welcome to cling onto me because they don't have the mindset to do anything creative with their minds. The mind controls the body. The last person I was a caregiver to, called an ambulance and said it was life threatening. When they got there, the real reason came out. All he had was a runny nose! Please God! Need I say more?
I diagnose myself too. problem is I am often right and it is confirmed by doctors :( Like my bad wrist TFCC tear.. I WISH I had been wrong:( having a major wrist reconstruction does not sound fun to me! then again, i was an LPN at one time too. I am NO hypochondriac but do suffer ALOT of neuro issues thanks to having ACC and septo optic dysplasia:( My MRI and neurologist confirmed that one.
You can over home Hypochondriac. I suffered from Panic Attacks, anxiety, OCD and hypochondria..so does my mother and she still does at 77 but i learned on my own how to deal and get over them. I only still struggle with minor anxiety daily but i can completely manage my panic attack as soon as i feel its coming on and my hypochondria is gone. No therapy, no meds. In where i grew up.. you dont have that luxury..
kowthar ali could you please tell me how you did that? I feel like my hipocondria is worse than ever and I need to get over it. I'm young and I want to live my life without being constantly agitated.
I was one of the unlucky people who were assumed by doctors to be a hypochondriac because I had anxiety issues then later to find out years later I really did have a medical problem and I was not just all in my mind.
Can people with this condition be convinced that they suffer from other mental illnesses,like O.C.D. perhaps.Can parents with this condition convince their children that they are mentally ill as well?Because my mom thinks she is O.C.D. but was never diagnosed and I as a child had A.D.D.,Schitzo effective,social anxiety,anger issues,bi polar and so on but as an adult I have nothing,been to a doc and he say's it's post tramatic stress nothing more.I'm wondering if my mother has hypochondria.
Rob Essensa hypochondria can almost be like OCD. The O stands for obsessive and that is what a hypochondriac deals with. Obsessive thoughts that they are doomed and have something wrong with them. So obsessive they may get real symptoms of the disease they think they have. And cannot be reassured when tests come back negative. It becomes so bad for me sometimes it give me panic attacks and I can't control myself. ☹️
The problem is I KNOW my friend is a hypochondriac. Every conversation I feel is evolved around his new ailment or pain. Hes obsessed over every minor thing and insists on discussing it with everyone searching for answers but no matter what anyone says he’s convinced he needs to go to the hospital or doctor to get an exam of some sorts. Iv told him many times he could be a hypochondriac but he takes it offensively like hypochondria isn’t real and I’m just insulting him. Trying to show him this video was HARD. He kept saying “he doesn’t do this and he doesn’t do that” trying to defend himself in a sense but the reality of it is that he generally does have all the symptoms
So the psychologists make people believe they have a problem, and prescribe them placebos or real medicine that can cause a life-time of addiction and sometimes a fortune in yearly spendings...
The Vicious Circle of Hypochrondia - Trigger - Pain, superstition, etc. Mine was my mom saying that my dog wasn't up to date with the vet. Then I saw a cut on my arm and thought, "oh no, rabies!" Ironically my dog wasn't up to date with fecal matter tests, he was up to date with shots. Thought/Searching - "What is this?" you ask You search it up. Wow! It's cancer! I'm going to die...! Oh wai- Depression - You sink into a form of depression at the thought of imminent death Realization/Increased awareness This is where there is a chance of escape. If you realize what is actually happening and in turn stop worrying overall, the circle is broken. However, you now gain an increased sense of awareness of your symptoms, and unless you choose to ignore this it amplifies the symptoms psychologically. And so the circle repeats. Congratulations, hypochrondia sucks.
I had a brother who had this disorder. There came a time when he was truly having a medical emergency but was ignored because of this. He suicided. True story.
I'm a hypochondriac, and i know it:P i'm not an idiot ... Well... Its just this anxiety issue where you really fear. It's not funny at all when you are the one you are experiencing it.
Do i have this?! I swear i was having heart attack symptoms and now I’m in debt because I went to the emergency room after chest pressure/pain , irregular heartbeat, and neck AND back pain to get an EKG🙃 BUT to be fair , no medication helped, it only went away when the nurse told me I should try applying heat & sure enough when i applied heat on my neck and chest for 3 days straight it subsided. Now I only get the pain when I’m taking a school exam or something of that sort.
Same here, I went to the doctors many times fearful that I would have a heart attack, bowel obstructions and appendicitis, always ended up finding out it was nothing. The reason I clicked on this video was because I solely believed I had appendicitis.
i mean i do get pain :( i felt real fatigue like i was going to die i really thought it was leukimia ,yes i do research everyday about symptoms but they really do bug me :( ,abdominal pain ,tiredness ,feeling drowsy after eating ,yes i do have anxiety and depression ,oh and my heart aches alot it hurts :( i went to the doctor because i was fatigue ,she said it was anxiety i was really ready to punch her in the face ,.....i wish mental hospitals and therapy places could let the Hypochondriacs get tested on what ever there worried about it will take a whole heap of weight off our chest :(
dang bro that happened to me last week. the doc seen nothing abnormal in my blood work so hes so quick to dismiss further testing like mri's and just tried to put me on damn antidepressants.. I'm so frustrated.
GOD YOU DONT EVEN KNOW, The anxiety I deal with all the time is unbearable. The simple anxiety and constant release of adrenaline is bad for your health and mind. It pains me all the time and I feel hopeless but at the same time responsible to help the world the best I can with the best of my ideas and many kinds of irritations pain me very often and as soon as I get a pain, I look it up for several minutes with all kinds of horrible results which only further my minds focus to detect symptoms.
I have been suffering this condition since I was around 9 years old 2011 and my health anxiety developed when I suffered from a stroke at the age of eight years old after taking my mother’s medication. Almost 7 years later in 2018 I am almost Sixteen years old and I want to be well enough for my birthday party I have my own disabilities too
I had hypochondria when I was younger. I was so anxious that it led to OCD. it was so weird, i thought i was the only one and i actually thought i was psycho. :L
Don't listen to this video. "hypo" means "too little of" and "chondria" means "cartilage". So "hypochondria" means that you have too little cartilage. This leads to conditions as mild as severe arthritis, or as severe as a total collapse of your nose and ears, since they're supported by cartilage.
you don't have it, you'd know you'd have it if (for example) you just had a simple cough and you would freak out and think it was a flu symptom or something
There are plenty of studies of the characteristics hypochondriacs. What is missing is a study of the patients who have an undiagnosed illness. How do these people differ from hypochondriacs? Hospices are fuill of people who are dying because they were thought to have imaginary illnesses. Many chronic illnesses are misdiagnosed for years. What is different about the people who are genuinely suffering? A study the misdiagnosed would be far more valuable because it would save ruined lives.
Being a hypocondriac means your ego is inflated. You think the universe revolves around you. That would be OK if you were witty, amusing, a trend setter, an artist, but because your energy is geared towards producing non existing medical crisises, all you do is bore the hell out of everybody. The natural condition is to be healthy. Last time I ever saw a doctor was when I picked up mild food poisoning in 2016 at a picnic. The only problem I have is my hypocondriac husband. Everyday is crisis day. A headache, stomach ache, . What's next? Malaria? Typhoid? Polio? I got it! How about Bubonic Plague? Please God, he's driving me crazy as well.as his doctor. And my hypochondriac mother and brother

Headache = tumor, chest pain=heart attack, leg pain = pulmonary embolism, mole= cancer... It is just so ridiculously frustrating.

I diagnose myself too. problem is I am often right and it is confirmed by doctors :( Like my bad wrist TFCC tear.. I WISH I had been wrong:( having a major wrist reconstruction does not sound fun to me! then again, i was an LPN at one time too. I am NO hypochondriac but do suffer ALOT of neuro issues thanks to having ACC and septo optic dysplasia:( My MRI and neurologist confirmed that one.
This presentation declined really fast when it suggested that people should take neurotoxic drugs.
You can over home Hypochondriac. I suffered from Panic Attacks, anxiety, OCD and hypochondria..so does my mother and she still does at 77 but i learned on my own how to deal and get over them. I only still struggle with minor anxiety daily but i can completely manage my panic attack as soon as i feel its coming on and my hypochondria is gone. No therapy, no meds. In where i grew up.. you dont have that luxury..
kowthar ali could you please tell me how you did that? I feel like my hipocondria is worse than ever and I need to get over it. I'm young and I want to live my life without being constantly agitated.
I was one of the unlucky people who were assumed by doctors to be a hypochondriac because I had anxiety issues then later to find out years later I really did have a medical problem and I was not just all in my mind.
what is it
@@freyakeating5072 AV Node Reentrant Tachycardia
Can people with this condition be convinced that they suffer from other mental illnesses,like O.C.D. perhaps.Can parents with this condition convince their children that they are mentally ill as well?Because my mom thinks she is O.C.D. but was never diagnosed and I as a child had A.D.D.,Schitzo effective,social anxiety,anger issues,bi polar and so on but as an adult I have nothing,been to a doc and he say's it's post tramatic stress nothing more.I'm wondering if my mother has hypochondria.
Rob Essensa hypochondria can almost be like OCD. The O stands for obsessive and that is what a hypochondriac deals with. Obsessive thoughts that they are doomed and have something wrong with them. So obsessive they may get real symptoms of the disease they think they have. And cannot be reassured when tests come back negative. It becomes so bad for me sometimes it give me panic attacks and I can't control myself. ☹️
The problem is I KNOW my friend is a hypochondriac. Every conversation I feel is evolved around his new ailment or pain. Hes obsessed over every minor thing and insists on discussing it with everyone searching for answers but no matter what anyone says he’s convinced he needs to go to the hospital or doctor to get an exam of some sorts. Iv told him many times he could be a hypochondriac but he takes it offensively like hypochondria isn’t real and I’m just insulting him. Trying to show him this video was HARD. He kept saying “he doesn’t do this and he doesn’t do that” trying to defend himself in a sense but the reality of it is that he generally does have all the symptoms
My best friend recently had to show me this also, I have finally admitted I am a hypo and have been one for years!
So the psychologists make people believe they have a problem, and prescribe them placebos or real medicine that can cause a life-time of addiction and sometimes a fortune in yearly spendings...
The Vicious Circle of Hypochrondia -
Trigger -
Pain, superstition, etc.
Mine was my mom saying that my dog wasn't up to date with the vet. Then I saw a cut on my arm and thought, "oh no, rabies!" Ironically my dog wasn't up to date with fecal matter tests, he was up to date with shots.
Thought/Searching -
"What is this?" you ask
You search it up. Wow! It's cancer! I'm going to die...! Oh wai-
Depression -
You sink into a form of depression at the thought of imminent death
Realization/Increased awareness
This is where there is a chance of escape. If you realize what is actually happening and in turn stop worrying overall, the circle is broken. However, you now gain an increased sense of awareness of your symptoms, and unless you choose to ignore this it amplifies the symptoms psychologically.
And so the circle repeats. Congratulations, hypochrondia sucks.
anjopag31 Dude shut up.

I had a brother who had this disorder. There came a time when he was truly having a medical emergency but was ignored because of this. He suicided. True story.
I fear that I am that brother....
I seriously have this
***** how could you even believe you had schizophrenia in the first place? :O
+Charlotte Hawkins I'm the exact way. I have no symptoms of schizophrenia and I've been tested for it, but I'm still very worried.
I'm a hypochondriac, and i know it:P i'm not an idiot ... Well... Its just this anxiety issue where you really fear. It's not funny at all when you are the one you are experiencing it.
Do i have this?! I swear i was having heart attack symptoms and now I’m in debt because I went to the emergency room after chest pressure/pain , irregular heartbeat, and neck AND back pain to get an EKG🙃 BUT to be fair , no medication helped, it only went away when the nurse told me I should try applying heat & sure enough when i applied heat on my neck and chest for 3 days straight it subsided. Now I only get the pain when I’m taking a school exam or something of that sort.
Same here, I went to the doctors many times fearful that I would have a heart attack, bowel obstructions and appendicitis, always ended up finding out it was nothing. The reason I clicked on this video was because I solely believed I had appendicitis.
i mean i do get pain :( i felt real fatigue like i was going to die i really thought it was leukimia ,yes i do research everyday about symptoms but they really do bug me :( ,abdominal pain ,tiredness ,feeling drowsy after eating ,yes i do have anxiety and depression ,oh and my heart aches alot it hurts :( i went to the doctor because i was fatigue ,she said it was anxiety i was really ready to punch her in the face ,.....i wish mental hospitals and therapy places could let the Hypochondriacs get tested on what ever there worried about it will take a whole heap of weight off our chest :(
Omg I have the same thing ugh it sucks it really does and I also have bad anxiety.
Same boat
dang bro that happened to me last week. the doc seen nothing abnormal in my blood work so hes so quick to dismiss further testing like mri's and just tried to put me on damn antidepressants.. I'm so frustrated.
GOD YOU DONT EVEN KNOW, The anxiety I deal with all the time is unbearable. The simple anxiety and constant release of adrenaline is bad for your health and mind. It pains me all the time and I feel hopeless but at the same time responsible to help the world the best I can with the best of my ideas and many kinds of irritations pain me very often and as soon as I get a pain, I look it up for several minutes with all kinds of horrible results which only further my minds focus to detect symptoms.
How are you doing now
Yes, because I am going to a mental therapist xD...I am not too bad about this so idk if it's really me or not....
I'm only 25 and am an hypochondriac
Hypochondria jokes dont get any better.
I had to laugh at this one just because this is me every single time 😅
I have been suffering this condition since I was around 9 years old 2011 and my health anxiety developed when I suffered from a stroke at the age of eight years old after taking my mother’s medication.
Almost 7 years later in 2018 I am almost Sixteen years old and I want to be well enough for my birthday party
I have my own disabilities too
I had hypochondria when I was younger. I was so anxious that it led to OCD. it was so weird, i thought i was the only one and i actually thought i was psycho. :L
How did you stop
Just learned about this.. im hypochondriac... tsk
I think I have hypochondria but I don't want to go to a mental health professional because I think my skull is cracked. -:-
Don't listen to this video. "hypo" means "too little of" and "chondria" means "cartilage". So "hypochondria" means that you have too little cartilage. This leads to conditions as mild as severe arthritis, or as severe as a total collapse of your nose and ears, since they're supported by cartilage.
Does this mean i have hypocondria? I have a depression disorder and if i get really fustrated 1 time i hqv thoughts that i have anger problems...
you don't have it, you'd know you'd have it if (for example) you just had a simple cough and you would freak out and think it was a flu symptom or something
ہائپوکونڈرئیا سے مراد صحت سے متعلق بدگمانی کی بیماری ہے۔۔۔۔
Hypochondria its a life-threatening condition!
I imagine things from ghost adventures and I think it is schizophrenia and I am 11 I am a idiot
There are plenty of studies of the characteristics hypochondriacs. What is missing is a study of the patients who have an undiagnosed illness. How do these people differ from hypochondriacs?
Hospices are fuill of people who are dying because they were thought to have imaginary illnesses. Many chronic illnesses are misdiagnosed for years. What is different about the people who are genuinely suffering?
A study the misdiagnosed would be far more valuable because it would save ruined lives.
A hypocondriac is a person who suffers from hypocondria.

@MrHiddenDinosaurs Hahahaha true that
I suffer from this

Being a hypocondriac means your ego is inflated. You think the universe revolves around you. That would be OK if you were witty, amusing, a trend setter, an artist, but because your energy is geared towards producing non existing medical crisises, all you do is bore the hell out of everybody. The natural condition is to be healthy. Last time I ever saw a doctor was when I picked up mild food poisoning in 2016 at a picnic. The only problem I have is my hypocondriac husband. Everyday is crisis day. A headache, stomach ache, . What's next? Malaria? Typhoid? Polio? I got it! How about Bubonic Plague? Please God, he's driving me crazy as well.as his doctor. And my hypochondriac mother and brother
