Look there’s a chance that u will get breast cancer , there’s also a chance u don’t and live til ur 80 in good health , there’s a chance your turn into a parrot who sings folk songs , life is fulll of possibilities. Dwelling on the negative ones takes away from living our life. We gonna die , whethere it b cancer , old age , getting into a fight with an ostrich. Life is not guaranteed for anyone , just enjoy ur time here and go ur erp and take medication if u need it. You’re gonna be okay

I get that one every now and again! What helped me was a plan on what I would do if it did happen, what kind of surgery I'd get, etc. Because I'm porky and over 40, it's a possibility. If you are over 30, you probably can get a mammogram. That will help a lot. Breast cancer if caught early really is treatable. So I get it. Be vigilant...but keep that most folks beat it. I have the health anxiety too and I've been worrying about pancreatic cancer lately because my blood sugar shot up fast

Ask your doc to get a ct scan they’ll help with the pancreatic cancer. I had one last summer because I had a sharp pain in my abdomen, turned out I was constipated. But they couldn’t see the pancreas because I had too much fat in that area. So now I worry about pancreatic cancer too, but my blood sugar is fine

Oh I've been poked and scoped up the ying yang. I hear ya...do you have physical symptoms of any sort? I did at 23, which is why I ask. One you ID that the OCD is feeding the anxiety it's a huge step and good on you it happened at 23! You have to believe you can get better but it's hard work.

I’ve had a sore right armpit lymph node for ages but the doctor just says it’s hormonal :( what was your symptom? What did it end up being?

Frequent urination. I have interstitial cystitis and Fibromyalgia (for reals. Lots of people think they have it but don't). Have they done blood work on you? There's all sorts of stuff that can be other than breast cancer. I've never heard it chalked up to hormones...your breasts can swell hormonally but lymph nodes not so much.

I have an appointment with a gyno on weds where I’m going to ask about IC! I had two UTIs back to back and sometimes it still hurts to pee even though my culture is clean

Important thing to note most of the things it could be aren't serious. It's causing you discomfort and that's why you are fixated. Could also be a bra issue? I'm not kidding. I hate bras and avoid evil poking underwires

In my case, it normally don't hurt to pee. When it does, it's a flag that I might have a UTI. Could also be kidney stones. If it is IC, I'm sorry. Sleeping with IC is a bitch and it can make you feel crazy ☹️

I was scrolling on here and now I’m having a panic attack. Someone posted resources and one of them was a NOCD article and I thought that was so great. I clicked on it because I like learning about this disorder and I love NOCD’s resources. But I read that one of the compulsions for pocd is watching cp? I thought that wasn’t a thing with POCD. I literally cannot breathe because I feel like this thing is now possible and I cant calm down. That was the first time I’ve ever seen that stated as a compulsion. I feel like I’m dying. What triggered my spiral in the first place was months ago someone contacted me and told me they watched it but claimed OCD and I felt absolutely horrified. I deleted my account and removed that person entirely. I am freaking out so bad I really can’t seem to breathe right now

I’m on my period and o think my ocd feels a little worse today… I feel anxious and like something bad is about to happen, like I can’t move or talk cause I’ll freak out or snap and do something. Also I had a gronial response about an SA topic and I feel horrible, I’ve noticed that I do have these gronials as if I’m actually into that but idk if it can happen that you have the gronial and think “oh I’m horny, not about this but I am” is that possible? Idk how to say it… also I think I just want reassurance but I’m also scared…

I’m anxious about HIV. What if I get it? That’s a scary thought to me. And then I’m scared/worried about giving it to others, not knowing if I have it, etc.
