In the past month or two I've been convinced that I've had Syphilis, a blood clot, my teeth were falling out, I've been going blind, I've had a brain tumor, chlamydia, hook worms, skin cancer, and the list goes on... It sounds silly, but I do a really good job of convincing myself. I will obsess about something for a few days, and I only get over it when I start obsessing about something else. I never go to the doctor any more because I don't know when I can trust 'symptoms.' I've always been like this, and suffer from anxiety attacks from time to time, also, which i've learned to deal with, but the hypochondria seems to be getting worse. Drugs aren't for me (been down that road). Does anyone have any references (books, websites, experiences, tricks...) that has helped with this? Thanks!
