I guess a lot of us anxiety sufferers have searched up our symptoms without giving it a second thought. But it is something you should give up right away as it is a huge obstacle in your recovery process.
You have to understand that your mind, in this anxious state, acts like a sponge for negativity and catastrophic scenarios. Simply looking up symptoms will feed your mind with hundreds if not thousands of horrible and devastating results and scenarios.
But that is not all. Because you are under constant stress and fight or flight mode is constantly up and running your brain easily connects the results with your symptoms. A heart attack seems a lot more plausible for feeling the way you do than a panic disorder after all… at least in the current mental state you are in.
Finding and reading up on all those horrific illnesses will only make you more aware of your body and the way it is feeling. Symptoms you did not experience or were not aware of suddenly become the center of attention as you now know that these can be a sign of a certain disease and down goes the spiral….
You may find some short term relief by getting reassurance from a doctor but your underlying anxiety disorder does not simply vanish. So even been given the “ you are physically healthy” will not stop your symptoms to pop up and that is the reason why so many of us are tempted to self diagnose ourselves and find alternative explanations. It is a cycle we can never break out of if we do not find the courage and the strength to finally trust our doctors….

Thats my life in past 2 years, living in fear getting a stroke,Ms,cancer,heart attack ...
Yuppp i know how debilitating anxiety can be. Its incredible how powerful our subconscious is. It is in need to find some plausible explanation for all of this.
Try building up your body with exercise. It was something that truly helped me a lot. Once the body feels better or actually good your mind will be more positive and acceptance a lot easier!
Improvement Path I do exercise 4times weekly , i take Vitamin D3 2000IU one a day in winter time , omega3 3,4times a week, magnesium 4,5times a week , it’s helping me that’s true but again there is 20% of day that’s always can trigger you a panic attack , anxiety, headaches ,tingling , so iv’e just accepted anxiety it the way it is , live as much as I can , travel , sleep enough , work etc......
Thats great and it sounds like that you are on the right path. Have you been keeping up the habits for a while now?
Yup, you have the exact mindset as i had when i finally started to recover.
I have anxiety so i should make the best out of my life. I gave up a lot of things that i thought were not bringing me any hapoiness in my life. I quit a good paying job and switched to something i enjoyed for example. Digging deep and finding a root cause might be something that would help.
Yes dued I can understand you
You won’t believe if I told you that I went to a neurologist to tell him that I feel I had MS it’s because i was googling my symptoms. For two years, it was no month without going to hospital. for an internist, an ophthalmologist, Cardiologist, dermatologist. My fears now centered around cancer, and I cannot go to the hospital because of the curfew 💔💔 I feel i had cancer and it spreads in my body and i’m dying
I'm so glad that I'm not the only one going through this! And the part where he said that symptoms didn't show up until after googling them is so true. Like recently my left foot went numb and when I googled this, it started telling me that I had MS, stroke, ALS, Parkinson's, diabetes, etc. After reading all of the symptoms further I would somehow start feeling those exact symptoms, which would make me convinced that I have those diseases. I would start having severe anxiety thinking that I was going to die. After watching this video, it helped me feel relieved that I'm not the only one going through this. Thank you
plus even though you know your not the only one going through it something in your brain tells you that your case is different omgggggggg I hate it!!
Exactly!
@@brittanyforever4482 I know right! Few months ago the right side of my neck was hurting so I searched it up in Google and it started telling me that I had throat cancer, lymphoma, spinal cancer, etc. Surely enough few days later I start feeling symptoms that relate to what I just searched up. I hate how your mind tricks you into thinking that you legitimatelyhave these deadly diseases.
So glad to Read this and Im not Alone..I always Noticed I feel the Symptoms of One of the Ilnesses AFTER I read About it.
@@ivanenriquez7974 same 😭😭. I'm so freaking scared rn
Thankyou for the video. I really need to stop googling, it even makes me don't wanna go to doctor coz i scared if it is right. :")
Same lol I had stomach aches and I though I had cancer
i swear im a hypochondriac
I got pimples on my tongue and it bothered me a lot and I went to Google and asked for it on Google that I had tongue cancer that night I didn't sleep I didn't wait for anything to calm down I went to the doctor he said it was nothing but I was terrified so I asked for a blood sample and it turned out to be nothing. And its still annoying but i dont care its nothing
Same but I went to the doctor
This is so me are you ok now i am going through this very badly
I’m going through this phase rn and omg its horrible, yesterday I promised myself I wouldn’t search for symptoms but today I literally spent 1 hour on the internet searching for symptoms.
I’m just gonna call my doctor and see what’s wrong instead of going on Google.
That is the wiser choice. Hope everything went well!
same
What's killing us most is the fear to die. But we have forgotten that something will eventually kill a man. So be prayerful and believe in God. Take your mind off any symptoms once you have tested for them and everything is normal.
thank you lol
It's basic human tendency to relate to the worst illness possible provided as the result on Google as to gain conformity of being out of danger. But as soon as only 1 symptom matches to the worst of the worst disease, even which Google considers rare, we feel all the symptoms and start panicking. I shivered a whole day and even got fever due to this shit. And after 2 days I'm normal as heck...
Bro how are you now. 😊
That’s one of my biggest compulsive behaviours! My parents say I’m perfectly fine but I Google them anyway and they say “You’re going to die”!
You and the audience on comments section make me feel relaxed. At least i am not alone.
do u wanna talk to me on instagram and just describe our symptoms together so we don’t feel alone

Having anxiety and using Google was the worse thing I could’ve done.
yeah, definitely need to step away from that!
Thank you for this channel and this amazing presentation guys. This channel was the only one to understand me when I first understood and learnt about my anxiety/panic attacks. I had hope after understanding what were panic attacks and what was really happening to me - today I’m way better than before.
My anxiety triggered my hypertension. I’m on medication to control my High Blood Pressure but I’m feeling way better now that I know I’m dealing with. My eating habits and fitness life have improved BUT GUESS WHAT NOW? Since I’m losing weight and that is what I wanted, I’m now assuming that something else is wrong with me. See, knowing that my mom died of cancer 9 years ago - all my assumptions are revolving around that particular chronic illness. My body would created every symptom because I’m constantly thinking of the worst. One moment, Cancer and the next Heart Attack, Stroke, etc.
Thank you for bringing clarity on this video - I will immediately stop googling stuff because yes, I do attract negative thoughts into my life and the feeling is not so great afterwards.
There is a old African Proverb that says “if you can deal with the enemy on the inside, the enemy on the outside can do you nothing”... My body is in a healthy state and I’m feeling good when I’m around people until I go deep in thoughts, that’s when all my triggers take control over my mind and soul.
Our thoughts can either push us to our future or become our worse enemy. Anxiety is my worse enemy but what else can I say, pray for your enemies rather than to worry about them... You can only win from there.
WHOEVER IS READING THIS - You are a WINNER and you’re in control over your body. Strength to you - may this Test become your victory Testimony one day.
Now that you know the trust, never let an old flame burn you twice.
Love and peace from Durban, South Africa 👏🏽
Love you for this! Glad you are doing better!
DAMN IT!! I SHOULD’VE WATCHED THIS BEFORE!! NOW IM SUCH A MESS! FRICK YOU DR. Google.
Easy access to these info makes having an anxiety disorder so much more difficult. Always better to get checked out by your doctor and then stay clear from dr. Google 🙏
JENNIFER QUEEN 제니 I’m late but I know how you feel 😭
Jennifer yeah please help I think I’m going to die
Google keeps saying that i might have cancer LMAO
@@sanity375 bs dont listen
Man this video is so true, I looked up my symptoms. Google told me diabetes, cancer, stroke, heart disease etc. And when I look up the symtoms that's when I feel the symptoms I've just read I started to feel those symtoms and others. Anxiey is hell
Yes, never google when you have health anxiety. It just makes everything so much worse. Remember that this can be overcome
I recently watch your video and I thought I need to restraint myself from googling my symptoms but one day I lost my willpower and back to googling my symptoms. It was the worse decisions ever. My anxiety back and I got muscle anche and thought I am gonna die from serious illness
Nice vid! Seems like you’ve really gone through a lot.... happy to see you’re using what you’ve learned and sharing what caused you to grow. Your dedication to help others is admirable!
Thanks man! Really apreciate it! Yup, those 5 anxiety filled years were the worst and i believe that some very simple and straight forward advice and explanation can go a long way for a lot of people out there. At least i hope it does and i will keep doing my best 💪
@@ImprovementPath it is helping me tremendously.....Thanks for Content.
This is so bad for me! Once i feel a physical symptoms i immediately searched it. When i found something that similar to what i feel i start watching it and feeling the other symptoms too, now im dealing with it everytime i cant leave it on my head. Im so drained and exhausted, i just want to sleep everytime
So if you feel the symptoms after you look them up, is that your brain trying to simulate the effect?
Im so glad I read this...Im not alone..YES!!!..Exactly What Happens to Me!!..so Just Maybe thats exactly what it Is..Your Brain Responding to your anxiety about reading the Symptoms of an Illness and causes you to Feel them..
@lunacraftx same 😭 I'm so scared
Bro exactly. This is what is happening to me right now and I regret it. I was slouching and doing assignments for like 6 hours straight so obviously, my chest ached. However, it's not my middle chest, it's my left chest. It's common knowledge that your heart is located in your left chest, so I boosted into Google and searched "left chest pain" and literally ALL that I found were heart related issues. But I live a healthy lifestyle and I don't have a family history of heart disease/s. So yea, now this dumbass anxiety is causing me this heart-like ache, now I insanely regret it.
This is literally me right now, anyone know how to ‘reverse think’ it? Like what to do if you find yourself become too anxious about google’s diagnosis?
@@jeffma7507 maybe try something for calming. If you can't get a small dose of a benzodiazepine to use just once, try Passionflower, or Californian poppy, for a couple of days. They're pretty much completely harmless, but have decent anxiolytic effect. If your symptoms get better on those, it will give you a "proof" of just how powerful somatization can be, and that might help you realize it's possible to self-induce symptoms of an illness you don't have.
Thank you so much. The accuracy in this video hurts xD I have a stiffness in my fingers joints. All of my family says it was because I use it alot and stayed in the same postures for long time (I'm an art student), but when I google it up, Bam , Rheumatoid. And ofc I went sh*t scared. It feels better tho to know that I'm not in this loop hole alone and I wish anyone who were facing this kind of things would have enough strength to get through this bad habit. We'll going to make it guys.
100% not alone! You can get over this!
yeah I can relate...I googled vision related symptoms on google during anxiety and it was nerve racking !! I got scared it said like tunnel vision , blurred vision etc I was like bruh .....
Same here mannnn! Same thing happened with me, my fingers got hurted in the gym and when I googled it shows that I'm having arthritis, Autoimmune etc and i started feeling the symptoms of it, I was having bad mood, i don't feel like to do anything my head feels like burning sensation I'm getting jealous of other people and all then I discussed it with my family and they told me that I'm scared and they take me on a trip and after that it is all good and I'm feeling amazing, that's sounds good that I'm not the only one suffering from it LoL😂
i thought i had diabetes, cancer, stroke and etc.
Oh yes i can relate!
😅
Me too
What made you feel like you had diabetes? What were the “symptoms”
@@mclovin3649 my symptoms was coughing once and having mild headache, I think I have fibromyalgia
Thank you for maing this video. Health anxiety is a recent thing that has taken over my life and has made day to day living a nightmare. Im glad im not the only one with these fears, and that someone was able to explain it to me and calm my nerves, even if only for a bit.
Thank you for this!! I just googled my symptoms and I'm so freaking scared 😭
You should have yourself checked up just to make sure, I've also experienced issues like these people on the comment section but it's about chest pain and slight difficulty breathing. I literally spent a week trying to search for it and all I get is heart and lung conditions so I told my mother about it and went directly to the hospital and guess what, I'm normal 😌. The Cardiologist told me that the more we tried counting our heart rate, the more concious we become so it will just cause more anxiety and contribute to constant worrying.. they've ordered ECG and 2-D Echocardiogram for the test btw and it was just all last year.
I'm convinced that my anxiety is just always present and won't stop making me believe stuffs that I shouldn't be believing in to so the idea for me now is to make sure of it always by having myself checked up.
@@necovalenzuela9142 it was nothing, it was just acidity 😂. But Google said it might be esophageal cancer, hiatal hernia, etc🙄
@@mcgil8891 That's good news! Hope we'll be more alright soon!
@@necovalenzuela9142 thanks. Haha yeah
Same I’m going to the doctor on Friday pray for that everything is fine
The only thing that can make me relive health anxiety is if I just learn to accept I'm gonna die 😂😂😂 I always still end up believing the worst will happen
Idm dying. But I do mind dying too young. I'm still 20!! 😭
@@mcgil8891 I’m 13 and this sucks
I tell myself I completely accept it then the next minute I start overthinking bro 😭😭
nah bc i accept it sometimes but then I just double back on the idea of it.
You are correct, most people who have problems probably goes on google and search up how to make their problems stop. However it often feels like it is making their problems worst than before
This is true
so true i searched up stuff and everytime my heart sped up just a little i thought i wus having a heart attack. the anxiety kinda dissapeared overtime realising that i never died and just kinda stopped believing.
Bruh I can feel my heart beat through my chest when I touch my chest. And I swear google sucks cause heart papilatiijs is from anxiety
I searched up my symptoms on Google and it shocked me. Thank goodness I saw this video :)
Happens to me a lot and I really hate it, especially with “Heart attack like” feeling. I wouldn’t wish anxiety on anyone 🤧
Anxiety is the worse omg
Can speak with experiences that it makes your anxiety 10,000x worse.
for sure!
A short list of diseases that I have "discovered" in myself just over the past half year:
- Stroke
- Fatal ventricular fibrillation
- Throat cancer
- Angina and CAD
- Multiple sclerosis
- Lymphoma
- Skin cancer
The fear of one disease is replaced by another with short periods of calm. I live in constant fear, I can't take it anymore.
Yep, really regretted searching google to self-diagnose myself before a urology test. Really hope the worse won't come...
Any updates?
@@dranoell7758 Found nothing abnormal. All tests are negative. But, still have to deal with my symptoms for a while but getting better.
Several people told me this. I'm doing my best to avoid doing it, but I looked up reassurance posts earlier today for my case despite this...I *NEED* to stop doing that and see a psychologist.😖
Honestly imma stop now because whenever I’m googling symptoms my heart is racing and I’m always scared
Thank you so much for this video. I needed it, honestly these past few days I've been very anxious about some of my symptoms which became worse when I googled about them. I can relate to your story 100%. After watching this I am feeling way better. Seriously I can't thank you enough.
I didn't knew this was a thing more people go through. I thought I was the only one. This did stop my anxiety.
Same issue with me. I thought I had angina, type 2 diabetes because my feet was hurting a little and urinating a lot. Then came to realize I was just only dehydrated cause I drank next to no liquids that day and drank a lot of water before hand. If you’re a hypochondriac like me, stay away from googling your symptoms.
Should i be worried that ive had symtoms of cancer for months? It could also be symtoms of anxiety but ive been physically sick for more than a month and doctors dont know why. I cant expect you to know straight answers but can anxiety go for months with physical symptoms
Bro how do u feel now ? How much times it takes to recover from anxiety . I was anxious for entire 4-5 days but now even after knowing about google , i sometimes feel good and sometimes again worrying . And I also waking up with anxiety for some days .. idk why ?? Just hoping to be normal again … 🙂🙃
Great video, and everything you described is what I do now. I'm slowly trying by making a diet change and I havent gone to the doctor this year other than my physical.
Thank you! 🙏 sticking to a healthy diet and working out goes a long way with anxiety. Do things to get your general stress levels down so you build up higher tolerance during the day. That was the key for recocery for me 💪
These videos are brilliant. Thanks mate, such a big help. Subbed ✌️
Thanks man! Really appreciate it 💪
@@ImprovementPath You're welcome mate 🤜🤛
Bro internet is big cancer for human body
Worse than cancer it will ruin mental health bcoz we get stressed and anxiety lot when googling symptoms
this is so true. I searched up slight mouth pain and for a few months I though I had mouth cancer and strawberry tongue.
Over the last 6 months, I've thought I've had lung cancer, lymphoma, tonsil cancer and finally bowel cancer, my chest hurt, then my neck hurt, now my belly hurts...I hate google.
I can relate and I am sorry you are going through this. Maybe check out the recovery playlist here on the channel, I am sure that there are things in there that can help
I so needed this video! Right when you wrote down angina I started to cry cause that’s what I’ve been so afraid I have
same i looked up why i had pain in my left arm and it gave me and i was like 😳😳😳😳
Me: coughs once
Google: *Diagnosis: You're dead!*
I feel you
I'm in this phase again and I feel so tired of excessively worrying over and over. Whenever I feel something new, I google it right away. I know my symptoms are just because of stress and super worried about covid esp back in 2020. I believed I had a neuro disease but my doc said I'm completely fine. What stress can do to the body and mind is really destructive. To the person reading this, thank you for taking the time to read my comment. I don't have other venues to vent this out because my family is tired of my worrying...
I fully sympathize with you. I left my job back in the beginning of march and my body just got so stressed and it’s been hell ever since I’ve had so many tests done my anxiety is so bad my body feels so bad I freak out everyday about something even my panic and anxiety feel so different then just regular anxiety so many different symptoms tried a couple different meds hated them all especially buspar
I'm currently at this stage, in my early twenties and this has become my daily lifestyle.... Just finished writing exams from which I guess the stress had caused me to loose weight and it's like from 52kg now I weight 50 but my relatives often tell me I look sick, omg what's wrong with you are you dying? Googled the weight loss even though I skip breakfast most of the times or eat once a day, drank very little water I still googled and got all types of cancers and kidney failure, heart problems and this has caused me to worry more
now I'm on a deworming treatment as the internet has convinced me that I have a parasite In my body eating up all my nutrients it's gotten so bad cause I constantly feel like shit, weak, unmotivated and of course this just makes gaining weight harder, that and not enjoying the meals I take, with been eating the same dish for over 2 weeks now.... but ofcourse I still feel the Google results can be true and this medication for deworming comes with side effects of its on it sucks
I'm too stuck into this how to end this debilating habit I don't know
I relate to this sm. But I hope you're getting better
Bruh every time I search up my symptoms i start reminiscing about life and what I’ve done but then watched this video and realised how much of an idiot i am well at least I’m not dead :)
I got anxiety and panic attack due to Google 😐
Same im in this struggle and finally i found this vid
@GG Gaming dont worry it will go away on its on once you will divert your mind. just concentrate on other things whether your mind allow it or not do things forcefully which will keeps you busy thats the only solution and stop watching google because its not the solution. You will get well soon 😁
Im scared of getting arthritis,intestine cancer a heart attack and side-stitch-pain And they fr be makin it 120382910103039x worse than whats happening
Same here, every little thing made me think I gonna have heart attack or stroke, looked online for pain in chest, pain in upper back or anything.
Seems to be I just suffered anxiety attacks, thank you google.
It sucks because I had the exact experience you described in this video just hours ago, and then I experienced it again with this video. I started to question the reassurance it gave me. "I can't let my guard down just because of some video. What if they're wrong and I'm right and I wait until it's too late?" Anxiety is a cruel demon...
Its addictive then any other thing .....and its soo true that we get relief for just some time n here we are searching up for some new symptoms again
:( a really difficult habit to get rid off but things that I mention in the recovery playlist definitely help. Maybe check it out if you havent already.
The most sensible talk I have heard for a long time, given in a strong, yet sympathetic, voice. Thank you sir. Perhaps other symptom videos ought to include hypochondria as a possible diagnosis?
Blessings and peace
Oh man, I was getting better for the past few days and then I suddenly had heart palpitations for 2 days. Worse mistake was Googling it. Now I am back on the cycle. :/
But its okay, I know I can overcome this :)
Exactly that is the way to look at it! Youve done it before you can do it again!
How did you overcome?
@@sasuke0945 is it okay if we chat for a bit now?
i had heart palpitations for months which made me lack of sleeping and it affect my whole life
I am 100% healed after 5 years. We always can find symptoms that match with what we have. My agony last for 3 years, but the core agony was only about 1 year. I could not sleep, my body was aching and stiff. This anxiety must really mess up my hormone and gut. I really do not want this to repeat in my life. It was really really tiring.
This vid actually calmed me down, thank you for this 😭🗿
I was watching a horror movie and every time I watch someone getting stabbed my foot feels a tingle I searched it up now i think I have liver failure
I have had debiliating health anxiety and have this addiction of searching all my symptoms on Google. Been to doctors after doctors and all of them told me i have anxiety.. feels awful living this way I have been searching for my symptoms on Google for 2 hours and then I realized what harm I'm doing to my mental health by exposing myself to so much information that is unnecessary and hence I will talk to my Doctor about my symptoms and would resist the urge to check my symptoms on Google. ... I hope everyone who suffers from anxiety finds relief soon and can live a fear free life
Thanks mate ive been suffering from anxiety and google tricked me!!!!!!!
This video is superb and added to favourites. Nice one.
Yesterday i had like vibrations in my head or tingling in my head and i googled it and i wish i never did that because it said that its 1 month before your stroke and i started panicking and having bad thought i told my dad and he started laughing because they didn't check me to believe that i have stroke.
10 months late but I did you have that stroke? I'm guessing not but I'm wondering what it was.
Late to this video but I have autism. So I can completely relate to this. I used to search up symptoms. But that made me feel even worse.
Can you actually ignore the anxiety ? Bc I'm doing it rn I ignore the symptoms but I didn't think that makes my anxiety go away idk
Ignoring is going to be hard if not impossible. I would say the correct thing to do was to acknowledge the symptom and remind yourself of what that symptoms really is --> just a byproduct of stress
@@ImprovementPath 💯
Happens to me too. Googled up symptoms why my tongue was hurting and it told me i have cancer.
Okay google, Why does my chest hurt.... (Google) You have A DEADLY DISEASE

OH MY GOD! Thank you 😭this is way way way too accurate
i literally went to the doctors today and he told me i’m fine but i keep googling and i’m convinced i have brain cancer and ear cancer
Same
Please note that a doctor’s diagnosis is more accurate than the results of a broad google search. Google results can also display results for different questions or just give false information. Doctors will always be able to analyse your symptoms and tell if you are danger. If you are concerned about anything else, please contact your doctor again.
Fuuuck, it's midnight r.n I've been trying to sleep for hours, after I found out I'm actually a dead person. Damn decided never to google any symptoms. This video helped me calm down a bit
I have diagnosed myself with many kind of cancers, MS, ALS, PARKINSON,DIABETES, HYPOTHYROIDISM AND HYPOTHYROIDISM, ARTHIRITS, and many more.
If I had all those diseases I would be dead by now.
This pandemic caused this situation and its been an year since my health anxiety started.
Never google your symptoms.
That is my only prescription.
Those are rookie numbers, According to google I have
Lung cancer
Heart disease
Diabetes
Hiv
Rabies
The bubonic plague
Spanish flu
Coronavirus
Skin cancer
Ear cancer
Eye cancer
Stomach cancer
Herpes

Epilepsy
Type 2 diabetes

I am adopted to this in 2 months and I kept on scaring myself couldn't concentrate on my studies and literally sticking with a thought of symptom despite going through tests and my parents keep on motivating that I am healthy enough. I should better stop googling my symptoms and concentrate on my studies.
This really helped thanks so much, I’ve been having some chest pains and sensations. Then I started googling symptoms and came up with heart attacks, angina etc . I went for some tests and came up with absolutely nothing turns out I was fine. A week after still feeling sensations cause I kept googling those symptoms in different ways then I started having serious anxiety. It was serious but thanks a lot this has assured me that I’m not crazy
Thank you you just answered what I've been feeling for the past month. Ive been feeling some pain and needles on my abdonimal and sometimes chest pain along with shortness of breath. I started to worry ever since I experience some symptoms and anxiety causes to increase every week. Been overthinkin about my symptoms. I felt sharp pain all over my abdomen and kidneys that only occurs once or twice through out the day and only last for a second. Also felt some fatigue and tiredness. Cause of this I've been to the ER thrice in 2 weeks for excessive worrying about my symptoms. I had done chest x-ray, CKG, urinalysis for kidney, blood test for organs and everything and all came back normal and told me I was young and healthy. Googling symptoms really makes me to worry a lot. Glad to know I'm not alone. 😥
You're really a genius!
I really appreciate your work
I spend hours doing this crying. I've lived like this since I was 16, 45 now
Exactly what Google told me after seeing this video you saved me!
I have diagnosed myself with heart disease, brain tumor, anaemia,Parkinson and menopause (I'm still 18)...
I’m 14 and I think I have cancer heart disease asthma and so on but I don’t know what to do
Same and I’m 13 it’s hard
More googling the symptoms will lead you severe anxiety and ER.
I thought I was the only one who did this 😌 also panic attacks are the scariest thing in the world 😨
Far away from the only one. It seems to be a very common trait
Don't be toooo scared of panic attacks. If you're scared of panic attacks then you can induce a panic attack because you don't want to have an attack. Kinda like a self fulfilling prophecy. That happened to me and you just have to realize how ridiculous that is.
Can a person constantly feel swaying. Balance problem.. Insomnia.. Twiching.. Muscle weakness.. Ache.. Tingling.. A feet twich.. Altogether?? Its anxiety?
Jagjeet Singh yes its me living with anxiety ...eventhough there is no lyme case in india i still fear for it now
Thank you for making this video 🤗
I’ve been googling my stuff thinking I’m gonna die from a heart attack it gave me serious anxiety but I have no idea why I still manage to go back and google and get myself into so much trouble with my mom because I think I’m getting a heart attack especially since it’s the most frequent one I’ve gone to the doctor and they said I’m fine and stuff but my mind is just like 🙂 no go back and google which I hate but I’m looking at all this cause I couldn’t sleep and it makes me feel so much better (mom and doctor said it’s just my body growing that’s why I feel so weird)
I’m struggling with that right now, I felt my heart beat twice weirdly last night and I’ve had a bit of discomfort in my chest over the past week or two but now after I’ve done all the research It feels worse so I’m thinking it’s not what it seems
Holy crap same
Same...

I too had that fear and many symptoms that actually resembled it. Its always smart to get an initial reassurance from an doctor and then dedicate your time fully to recovery.
@@ImprovementPath nah im fine now the bone pain is caused by a the stress and anxiety

@@zxshean5226 that's good to hear I'm dealing with the same shit with my tonsils thinking I have tonsil cancer 🤔
Dude you know what I had a normal heart burn due to acidity google is showing deadly diseases like cancer and so on. I stoped googling my symptoms from then
Thank you so much made me stop worrying over things
I was having panic disorder i would always search about it and would find more negative things. Due to this i then went into clinical depression, then i would search about depression and my biggest fear was that i would commit suicide due to depression which i didn't want but my mind would always stress on it.
Anyone 50 who suffer from this as well?
Im only 17 yrs , me too have this habit and I'm depressed 😭😭
