@advisor25 , based in my experience, people know when someone has health anxiety without being told. It’s often quite obvious to family members, friends, co-workers and doctors. So, there’s no real benefit from not talking about it. Talking about it, confronting it and finding ways to manage it helped me a great deal. I am so much better. So, there is hope.
