Health anxiety :Can I overcome it?
I constantly hear people talk about their 6, 8, or 10-year struggles with health anxiety, without anyone mentioning how they actually overcame it! Even when I hear from people who claim to have overcome health anxiety, they often qualify it by saying they still experience occasional fears, which makes me wonder if it's even possible for me to fully recover and return to my pre-anxiety self. My doctor says I'll be fine,but I'm not sure when I'm hearing others dealing with this for years.
