Thanks for introducing yourself to the group, Lorraine. You're definitely not alone on the hypochondria thing. I do the same shit and it's super rough. Mine is a result of having OCD. My health is just one of the things I obsess over. I get a sore throat and start googling various symptoms until I'm convinced that I'm already dead. My doctors told me to never google a symptom again because my brain can't handle the responsibility.
I'm happy to hear that introducing yourself was therapeutic for you. I think you'll get more comfortable in time with sharing stuff about yourself. It's weird at first, but I think it's overall a good thing to find support. Like, I had no idea you had the hypochondria thing before, so that's super interesting. Sometimes it's just good to know that other people do relate or go through the same things.
