How many of you google your symptoms when you are sick

And think you are dying? Yep. I have been there. I just need to go to the doctor, right?

I usually do the opposite and Google to convince myself I’m fine.

But if you’re worried you should go to the doctor.

All the time. I have severe paranoia that I have cancer. It’s a big delusion of mine. I do have lots of actual medical conditions, but I often think, “what if it’s actually cancer?”

When I get sick, I think the worst.

I recommend you just see your doc and they can tell you what’s really up. I bet you’re not dying, don’t worry too much, if possible… :slight_smile:

I actually have alot of actual conditions too, some not as common. The people at the doctors know me by sight. But I do feel like I am dying sometimes! And I know I am not!

Yes, I do this. I, also, always think the worse and I am paranoid that I will die young. I think it is sort of a reaction to the trauma of a psychotic episode-if something like that happened to you, you expect the worse at the slightest physical symptom…
