Dealing With Medical Anxiety Prints

A Hypochondriac's Worst Nightmare

Fight or Flight

Worry tank

Mind-Fullness

'I guess my brain just started to really care about itself.'

That party went well.

'I've been a nervous rex all day.'

"Day 4,261... I don’t know how much longer I can survive. Still no signs of civilization. Food is scarce and I fear the wound on my ankle is infected. Still, all this pales in comparison to the horror of having to be anywhere at any particular time."

That midnight hour when fleeting memories come home to roost.

No Immediate Danger

'Who wants to be examined first?'

"You dropped yer wallet."

Flu vaccine.

'I'm afraid I'll fall and no one will hear me.'

"If you're not on the brink of despair you're part of the problem"

Things that go beep in the night.

It's A Breeze

Some of us are calm on the surface but paddling like crazy underneath, and some of us are just the opposite.

Honestly, I don't know why I even bring Harold to parties.

"Do you cover hypochondria?"

Transcend Dental Medication: "Prepare to let go of the pain."

'Just checking that I've turned off the lights, dear!'

"Hypochondriac's handbook. A little passion project I'm working on;, or, rather, I would be working on."

"If I go to the party alone, will I be able to leave when I want? But then, there's always the possibility that I will get stuck talking to someone. I can't shake the problem is me. What if no one else likes me? I'm the only one being critical... The issue is I'm not enough and it's really so huge." "The over thinker"

"I'm worried that I'm the only one who constantly gets anxiety attacks..."

"And that was just your sudoku chart."

"I feel we're making progress."

"It's great things are back to normal, except that there are people everywhere."

"But why not be happy about all the diseases you don't have?"

"Oh no, I never replied to Theresa's email! And tomorrow I must call Steve.... What does Yara think of me?"

'Where'd he go, nurse?'

"My problem is I obsess over whether I worry enough."

"It's just a little device I use to help relieve the anxiety from meeting new people."

"Regular angst isn't a problem. It's the post-modern existential angst that gets to me."

Never being able to think of the right thing to say at the right time phobia.
