A video for health anxiety sufferers to show to their loved ones..

[@khaledsayed-s9g]

My family doesn't have a clue they think that I am just being lazy ... I wish of they can operate from my mind for just 10 seconds so they can understand what I am going through ... It is so frustrating when you look kinda fine on the outside but a complete mess on the inside ... So much love for you all my anxiety sufferers 🙏🤍

[@MikeJackson690]

Nobody really understands anxiety until they've experienced it themselves. In a way, while living through it, you have to try and have some empathy for them, which is very challenging when you're mentally unstable. It's just horrible. I hope you're ok 😌

[@khaledsayed-s9g]

@@MikeJackson690 thank you so much .. I am doing much better than I used to .. I am still struggling with symptoms but I am getting better at sitting with them (with the help of somatic tracking practices) ✌️

[@wittilly]

I love what you do. Since I found your channel only watching a video when I feel anxious again maxes me feel significantly better. I am so so happy that you and your channel exist!

[@Ana-Maria-M-A]

I’ve been watching your videos almost every day for a month now, they’re like the only ones who make me feel comforted by, and I talk about them with my mom some days, just so she knows what’s like for other people that had health anxiety like I do. She doesn’t understand English so I can’t really make her watch it, but I’m so open about everything I feel and she sees my daily struggles and yet, I don’t think she realizes how excruciatingly painful this is for me. In fact, now that I’ve been to a doctor to check on my unfortunately not made up heart condition, and the first exams showed I’m stable, she’s feeling more free to ignore my daily agonies. This heart condition of mine has this factor where dental problems can cause risk and I have more than one problem at the moment, they keep popping up like my body is attacking me, and when health anxiety symptoms give me a break, this happens and makes me panic again, I’m so helpless. I feel like a huge burden to her, it’s like everything I think and say bothers her, because they don’t believe anything is real, and I’m always like yeah to you is easy to dismiss it but this can be IT for me. It’s like having a bullet lodged somewhere in my body. I hate this so much, I empathize and pray for everyone going through this. We are so strong, we can get out of this, I believe in us!!! Despite all the horrors I’m doing my best to fight it, every day I’m trying, even if I’m dizzy or fatigued or plain exhausted, I TRY. I’m proud of myself for all of this, and I want you to feel proud of yourselves too.

[@ChericeByler]

Wow, this made me cry! I have been dealing with this for years and after going through breast cancer 3 years ago it seems to be worse now than ever. So glad I found your channel. God bless you for sharing your perspective with all of us!

[@Sinnersrule]

Cherelle, first of all you are an amazing human being and thank you so much for your videos. You don't know me, but you've helped me more times than I could count and more than people, my therapists and psychiatrists included. Lately, I have been feeling so depressed because of my health anxiety. It's an unending and excruciating roller coaster. I'm tired of going to doctors, getting all sorts of tests done (including colonoscopy and endoscopy btw). Even hearing the word "hospital" makes me sick. All of my doctors have told me that there is nothing wrong or serious. I'm currently dealing with IBS and acid reflux, of course before I visited gastroenterologist, I had thought the worst case of scenario... before that it was something with my skin, and before that it was twitchings, before that it was my eyes... It has been years and I feel really tired, your videos are like a ray of sunshine leaking between dark and heavy clouds, thank you for giving hope and relief, even if it is momentary. I literally cried while watching your video. So, anyone out there dealing with health anxiety, you're not alone and I pray it will pass.

[@Hisusi_Het]

I sooo feel you. Been on this boat for 7 years and I have had 70 tests done. From eyes, heart to stomach, tongue and head and everywhere. Im soooo sick of my life. Therapy doesn't help me 😢

[@Sinnersrule]

I had changed literally 7 therapists before I found the one that helped me. She did EMDR on me, which enabled me to regulate my emotions more properly, and most of my symptoms went away. Of course, I still struggle with health anxiety, but at least I'm not having severe panic attacks anymore. I pray that you'll find relief soon!

[@Hisusi_Het]

@Sinnersrule wow what's that ? I'm in Australia not sure what to look for

[@Sinnersrule]

@Hisusi_Het I have friends in Australia. I could ask them and see if they can recommend someone. EMDR is eye movement desensitization and reprocessing. The therapist basically makes your eyes move in a specific way. For example, they might give you headphones and make you listen to "beep" sounds that come from one headphone at a time, or they might ask you to follow their finger with your eyes. While you do that, they speak to you and help you process unpleasant memories and heal from trauma. It's really interesting. Also, you can google therapists who do EMDR on Google. I hope you get better in no time. Remember, you're not alone and it will get better 🙏

This video is GOLD.

[@lm0703]

Try adding an EXTREME fear of the medical profession and tests (results in particular) -- so, basically, a hypochondriac who won't go to the doctor, ANY doctor. The best remedy I have found is exercise to take care of the health anxiety, but nothing has helped with the distrust of the medical profession or the fear associated with it.

[@JustSavRose]

Same I will not take any medicine, if I do instant panic attack

[@meyolino97]

I've experienced the situation you described since 5 years now, i think it s not improving at all and also my somatic reaction is worsening with time. I describe it like trying to forward in life carrying a truck load with the reverse gear inserted, a nightmare. I changed some psychologists along the way , but i didnt find the solution to this restless state, so I decided that is time to get help from a psychiatrist and set a therapy to let my brain refocusing and maybe understanding better the path the psycologists have shown to me. I hope to find the solution. Thank you for your precious videos, you r helping a lot of people

[@lj6819]

I feel your pain. I've had somatization disorder now for 14 years and it's been torture. I have a psychiatrist and a talk therapist for years now along with medication and nothing. I'll have stretches of feeling fine but when it comes on, it comes on hard. Right now I'm dealing with daily nausea for the last 2 months and I'm under the assumption that its my mental condition though I continue to see doctors to rule anything out. I tried something called TMS that helped me for a year and a half but now I'm back to my old self. Anyway, good luck with everything.

[@meyolino97]

@@lj6819 I hope we can find a way through, we can't give up.

I have Health Anxiety. I've convinced myself I've had Cancer Before but i didn't have it. I was so terrified felt so scared I was in tears. I'm only nearly 38 still scared of getting Cancer.

[@lindalinsdell7446]

Can I ask a question? Did you always feel sick like having constant nasal congestion on top of other symptoms. I’m literally always worrying about my health and the doctor tell me over and over that my results show nothing to be worried about but I literally feel like I’m dying tbh I feel like I’m living in a dream I’m having the same symptoms that scary the shit outta me and I’m constantly worried about my health and my symptoms don’t help.

[@steftaci8983]

Hi cherelle, i have suffered with health anxiety for about 6 years although I wasn't aware that I had it till about 18months ago when my sister sent me one of your videos , and I feel it really helped to understand what I was suffering with and that other people also suffered the same thing!! I feel lije I have really progressed regarding my own health , but I now seem to be panicking and eorry about my loved ones especially my sons and I don't want to push it on to them and make them worry unnecessarily but I can't help it , any advice on how to deal with this please???🙏🙏❤

[@stevebrown-bz5ry]

Can't cope with health anxiety...it's taken over my life....and whatever I try....isn't working..... Waiting another eleven days for a hospital phone appointment from urologist......about my scan results..... Trying to convince myself..if it's bad news....surely..they'd have given me an actual hospital appointment....not a phone call.... But now..I'm on hold, waiting nearly another two weeks...to find out...... I'll never make it....I'm so worried.

[@sharonscott1776]

Can I please ask did u have tiredness, no energy, no motivation or interest in anything? If I’m watching tv my mind isn’t on it, I’ll grab my phone and start googling or look on facebook. My concentration is non existent. I was with a drug addict for ten years, I never used drugs, but I lived in survival mode for ten years. Where is he, has he used drugs, has he cheated on me. And once I asked him to leave in Nov 2022 since then when the stress had gone, now I feel tired, exhausted, drained. Dr has done all blood tests. My monocytes are mildly high for a year. Then I google that. I just don’t know what’s wrong with me.

[@hollydaugherty2620]

Sounds like you have clinical depression. Stop seeing your medical practitioner and see a psychiatrist or therapist/counselor.
