you sound introverted and pretty intelligent. The closest thing i can diagnose you with is early signs of depression which is based on your age. It seems like you get locked in and hooked on things that are irrelevant and in the past. You dwell on things that dont matter. Its not a bad thing its just how people like you and I think. The best ways to cope with it is to stay busy and not be alone but like you said that can't always be the case. Try searching for more meaningful active and productive hobbies than reading or learning or watching tv. Try carpentry or automotive. Things that require less thinking and more body movement will bring your minds focus to your body. Let me say the reason i said your intelligent is that you havbe the mind to think this rationally whereas a lot of people can only focus on whats right in their face. You think critically which is why im recommending doing things to distract your mind. Also i think these productive active hobbies willl bring you more joy and pleasure than tv or reading or learning which will also help keep your thoughts more positive to begin with.
you can also try yoga or meditation.
as a tip: when i start having negatvie thought i say this to myself in my head. "Im going to think positive 1...2...3" and get back to doing what i was doing. It helps a lot after some practice. And if tjhat doesn't work try thinking of something that does make you feel good. Something happy that happened to you in your life. rememebr the only reason you can feel so negative is that something positive happened in your life which skewed your reality of what is positive vs negative. this is to remind you that again something positive will come soon.

Why do you want to be an emotional hypochondriac?
The negative does attract easier than the positive. Think of negative thoughts as gravity. One pop, and you fall on the ground THUNK! Cos you've thunk too much. lol. You gotta want to float and not be grounded all the time.
You draw.
Draw it out. Draw all that anxiety and negativity out onto paper. Hopefully it will be cathartic.
I don't know if getting struck by disease/medical mishaps was just an example or what you are affected by the most. Here's something from that realm and artsy too. See and read. And maybe feel inspired and draw.
