About this episode

On episode #82, I answer the question - what is health anxiety? Also known as hypochondria, health anxiety can take over your life. When I suffered from it, I would continuously obsess over different areas of my body for weeks thinking that this strange mark on my skin or sensation within my body was life threatening. Then I would seek out loved ones for reassurance, google my sensations, go to the doctors, or stay at home in my safe zone continuously. In this episode, I go over the reasons WHY people suffer from health anxiety and HOW you can overcome it, naturally.
