Is anyone here a Hypochondriac?

[when_in_rome]

Just recently, I've thought perhaps I may be a Hypochondriac. I'm always worried I may have a brain tumour because of my terrible memory and headaches. I worry that maybe I have this unknown sickness, that doesn't show many symptoms. I read a book about a guy who has a brain tumour and will die in a year, but he had no idea!! I feel like just for my own ease of mind I should get some tests done, so i don't need to worry anymore. I know it's silly but it honestly worries me. Anyone else feel like this sometimes?

What can I do to change my thinking?

Go get some tests done, drink plenty of water and try and have a healthy diet if your not already, i'll have a heap of people from my brothers church pray for Jesus to heal you of whatever may be wrong and most days i personally have blue berry smoothy to lower blood pressure etc, read about super foods and other things that will fight off and prevent head aches as well and give them some time to take there effects, i was reading just the other day somewhere about a lot ways to get rid of head aches, you'll be just fine, relax and don't stress :) infact when i was just finishing typing this i remembered that 2 or 3 cups of coffee or tea a day can get rid of and prevent head aches but anymore then that can have the opposite affect apparently, i drink coffee often and dont get head aches very often if that helps, don't worry you have people praying for you
i speak to sickness and disease today and proclaim that according to Phillipians 2:10 that every knee will bow down to the name of Jesus Christ! Every name in Heaven, on Earth and under Earth bow it's knee in/to Jesus name!

I feel it sometimes. But it's just displaced imagination. It is impossible to feel this worry when you're fully distracted. Maybe bury your head in a good book or find a creative outlet. Anxiety is a common compliant. You should be fine.

rest and healthy diet could be the solution. but of course it's not just one day. stress and lack of sleep could make you forget. for the headaches, there could be a lot of factors like your BP or eyesight. It's best to go to a doctor especially if the headaches are really really painful not just migraines. Don't freak out yet! hehe!

I was when I was younger
a headache would be a brain cancer

A twisted ankle would be a broken leg.

A cold would be the black death.

Only way I stopped was I forced myself to think rationally each time

If they have few to no symptoms then wouldn't you having headaches and memory loss be a good sign that you don't have it?

Yeah I can see how that'd worry you, like what if you were sick you just didn't know. It's the same for me
