I must say, I appreciate all of your videos. I first came across your page when the “blood spot” video popped up. I’ve actually been to the doctor 6 times, last year saying something is wrong with me. Blood count came up fine. I still deal with the dots and went to the doctor again about two days ago because I thought something was wrong with me, I’ve lost my appetite over the past year and a half due to a separation. Some how, I managed to tell myself something was wrong with me because I had lost my appetite. It just spirals and just yesterday I said to someone I just feel like I’m dying and this video came up! I have major health anxiety after my separation, it was a sudden shift. I just want to say thank you so much for the comfort you provide for everyone and to allow a safe space to share our stories. One love beautiful! ❤️
1:57 that sentence you just said right there. That pretty much takes the cake for long term anxiety. It's the, "ok, maybe I was overreacting on the last disease I thought I had, but this time, this is the real deal."
There, that is exactly me. How are you doing now?
I'm literally experiencing what you went through before, my health anxiety and/or death anxiety got triggered after experiencing sleep paralysis. After that experience my mind and/or gut feeling has been telling me I'm gonna die soon. Whenever I try to do something to distract myself, my brain goes "I'll enjoy my time here because this is my last moment" everytime. I couldn't have a moment of relaxation because of how much the thoughts and feelings get over me.
how are you now?
THIS. THISSSS.
im currently going through this right now. im almost 100% sure that I injured my back in some way during weight training, and now it's causing weird ass symptoms like loss of taste, loss of smell, not completely but partially and im convinced that I have some deadly disease and my mind is constantly telling me, "you're gonna die", "you have such and such disease", and other worrying thoughts that has made me spiral into some deep thoughts.
and what makes it worse is that jm literally going BACK to the damn doctor today bc of the numbness and loss of taste and smell.
Anxiety makes us all feel like we're dying but thankfully we got doctors and family for help
When I read some of these videos I laugh so hard not because it’s funny but because I realize how outlandish WE ALL THINK and it’s like hmm I really am not alone and it’s the best feeling in the world try telling somebody what you’re feeling when you don’t actually have proof ! It’s crazy I am a nurse and I still don’t know how I became a nurse with such fears but some how when I take care of my patients it’s takes my mind off it and it’s the best feeling ever ! I’ve learned to go with the feelings instead of fighting them doesn’t always work but it helps a lot more
You don't even imagine how much your videos helped me. I was convinced had ALS it's been about 2 and a half years. With muscle twitching all over my body. But the way your videos explained the difference. i was able to overcome this horrible time in my life. I came back and watched your videos again to find closure. Thanks for the time you put on this videos it helps a lot of people.
Damn that's crazy it that happens to me to . Like my arms , legs , shoulders . It's terrible
How did you overcome it??
Thank you for this! I’m always bothered by how my obsession with what it “could be” will likely actually kill me one day due to the stress it puts on my body via inflammation I’m causing myself. I’ve convinced myself that I WILL die from cardiac arrest despite my dr saying it’s anxiety. I’m always battling with feeling that I’ll be that one off case.
You're definitely not alone in this exact experience. I'm deep in the same dark tunnel. Hope you're getting better.
Its so horrifying when u cant go to the doctor or get a scan for reassursnce
Sadly having that constant access can also be really dangerous. You’re never satisfied with a negative diagnosis, and it drives you further into hypochondria.
@@Sd3cinema this is so damn true. Every test had made me feel worse and worse. Key is learning to sot with uncertainty. Much easier said than done.
I have been thinking that I am dying for over four years. It began with some tingling in my toes and then it snowballed from there. The tingling went away and then I went on to other illnesses. Stomach cancer, bowel cancer, colon cancer, lung cancer, liver, cancer, brain cancer ...........and every other cancer one can think off. Living every moment of every day thinking I am dying has completely ruined my life. I also developed deep depression a few months after the health anxiety started. I have tried everything imaginable, but nothing has worked. I relate to Cherelle's story 100 %. Nothing brings me joy and I am sad all the time. I would greatly appreciate to hear from anyone who has overcome health anxiety. Please.
I'm right there with you. I've literally convinced myself of every cancer since 2015. Every year I'm like "dude if I make it to next year I ain't worrying anymore". Here I am 8 years later thinking I got lung cancer. For the past 4 years like once a year I end up hacking up blood. I've been told a lot of people do after having covid, that it could be coming from my sinuses, as of a couple weeks ago they said it could also be a bad stomach ulcer that burst open. It's happened 3 times in the past 3 months usually for 5-7 days at a time a few times a day. It's got me convinced it's lung cancer even though my white blood cell count looks great, they said my lungs sound great multiple times, and they've also done 2 x-rays on my chest and said my throat and lungs look good. They're suppose to run a scope soon and if that comes back negative for lung cancer I'm just curious as to what my anxiety will cook up for me next
@@zimbyasmr5802 Sorry you are going through this.I know it is a complete nightmare.Iy has been many years for you too
Do you also have depression, and do you take medication? I've had CT scans,ultra sounds and x-rays which came back fine.i am ok for a day, and then it starts all over again.I did hear that blood can be from sinuses and or caused by covid. I hope you can find peace, brother, and keep in touch if you feel like doing so. Sometimes talking with strangers can be more helpful than with someone you know. Best of luck.
Dan pain free you on youtube helped me with daily videos
@@zimbyasmr5802 just wondering how you are doing now.
@@user-cb8sg9py7r not sure I understand your comment,
It’s like you spoke for me. Thank you x
This is my right now, it truly sucks! It’s gotten so bad i’ve researched assisted suicide to “help” me die in case i’m actually dying.
I literally did this last night
@@KekW185 we are wild honestly
I have done this too sadly
I have never related to anything more in my life. This is me exactly at the moment. I’m trapped in a cycle of year thinking I have the worst cancer and I am dying. Symptoms are so strong and I keep thinking that it’s being missed. ThAt even the scans are missing it. I want to demand more tests, I’ve read about people who had scan miss things, it’s torture. No joy in anything. I hate it. Stripped me of everything. Thank you for sharing this Xxx

It truly feels like torture...i could have recorded this same video. Absolutely everything you said i have experienced. Going thru an awful episode now. Ive dealt with this for years, but having 2 little little kids now makes the fear 100x worse which makes the health anxiety in general exemplified.
am also struggling to accept that it anxiety....feeling like am going to die everyday...this way of thinking has taken over my whole entire life..💔💔💔
A very terrible way to live. I am depressed a lot because of my health anxiety. Such fear and embarrassment especially when trying to talk doctors. I get so ashamed of me. I know I am smart enough but I can't stop catastrophizing about what my symptoms could mean. So hard to live like this. You are brave. I too have tried everything to get over this.
Me too..no-one believes me, "it's all in your head"..but the symptoms are real. Right now I'm convinced I have MS...I feel like I'm dying each and every day.
I deal with same thing. I feel embarrassed to talk about it to anyone and I don’t think my family understands. I talked to therapist for several visits but he didn’t seem to understand how scared I was everyday and gave me no helpful advice.
Your ALS video’s have helped save my life and sanity. For the first time in a year I don’t feel completely alone. ❤️
Every word you said is exactly how I feel right now. Currently in the thick of this right now . And even though I can acknowledge I have health anxiety, I am still convinced I'm dying 😥
Thankyou for your videos🖤
I’m in the same boat right now. Even saw my doc today and he said everything looks good, but within an hour or 2 of getting home after the appointment I felt I was on the verge of severe anxiety attack 🤦🏽♂️. Hope you’re doing better now : )
@@ianirving8494 unfortunately I'm still suffering 😿 Hope we both recover from this one day! 🖤
@Pretty, same thing here. Even though I know I have HA, I am still convinced I'm dying. Each and everyday is torture. I see you comment is from 1 year ago so wondering how you are doing now.
@@sciencetest8 unfortunately I am still in the same cycle :( I even just released a song/video about it yesterday.
Unfortunately health anxiety still grips me 😢 I'm so sorry you also suffer , it has taken so much of my life 💔
@@prettyaddictedcult ,thank you for your kind words
I am also still struggling with health anxiety and sorry you are still battling it. Hope that writing and music helps you. Would love to hear what you have written
Keep fighting brother. You know my one wish right now would be to have a full day being anxiety free. I would give up everything I own to be happy again
Thank you for making these videos.
I’ve been going through the same thing! This was helpful! I just want to overcome it!
The amazing Cherelle . Your knowledge and experience has help so many people . Beautiful outside but even more beautiful inside
I love you Cherelle. Sending you a virtual hug 🫂
U are the ray of hope to me. I just feel ur another version of me sitting in another country but experiencing same. Good luck dear
This is me !!! Im in bed watching this ,probably dying!!!!🤣
I swear I love you for sharing your journey I struggle with this stuff everyday ,, I wish we could be best friends lol it feels good to have someone that understands you and what you go threw everyday
The most useful video for me since I started listening to Cherelle. Not sure if you get time to read comments, but if you do, thank you so much, Cherelle.
Brilliant video this is me I think the docs are miles out & I'm correct in thinking I've got some deadly illness thank you for you videos so helpful I've got hipno thearopy booked in don't care how it costs just watch to live again 🤞🤞🤞
I got unnecessary scans done due to anxiety in the past which Im regretting so bad now because now my anxiety is around how those radiation and contrast dye have damaged my body
people in there 80s+ have those scans all the time, you're fine.
@@ciaranperry4677 :D
Felt like this today, I have health anxiety around my heart. Improved alot over the last year through CBT, but it can be depressing.
So sorry about your journey but I'm happy if you're doing better God bless.
Thanks so much, Phil!
Do you think Anxiety can actually keep re-creating the symtoms that you are worrying about?
I do
Yes, it happens to me all the time
@@lizgil7534 do you get fybromyalgia symptoms
Absolutely. It’s happened to me. Our subconscious mind is immensely powerful. We literally manifest the symptoms. Just breathe. Pray. I hope your doing better 🙏
@@dignifieddan.4198 peace be with you 🙏
Hello, your videos are really helpful to many people..thanks so much. Are you fully recovered now? 👍
Just reached my own 3 1/2 "anniversary" of the sane feeling. This whole experience describes mine exactly. I actually just listed off my own "terminal illnesses" last night. Took a few minutes to tally up the count. 18 deadly illnesses, is what I came up with. Brain tumor, HIV, GI issues and 5 or 6 different cancers. Now, I'm on kidney fixation because my bloodwork showed a drop in function.
I try to soul search for what the process is doing to change me for the better, but it's hard.
I commented on another video and I must say, even tho i dont have "health" anxiety, also no social anxiety but general anxiety probably cannabis induced. Your sympthoms and "case" is one that i really can relate too and indeed it seems you are someone who already done her research. I also think DP is the worst anxiety sympthom because it is a really dark place you are in. I really dont trust my own mind anymore after that didnt know my might could get so dark and weird. But i can manage DP because it is consistent and i think too myself oo bruh im thinking that BS again. But anxiety in general is a bigger struggle. Low bloodugar is something i think i cope with now. Feel awful after my first meal and low bloodsugar creates brainfog and anxiety. Its just a constant battle
I just found your videos 💗😭😭 Your amazing and you sound like my life 😭😭 anxiety sent me to the hospital a couple weeks ago and I was told that I have a pericardial cyst on my heart and now every day since I think I'm going to die everyday.. I'm going through a Devorce and I have a broken heart. I just took a prescribed anxiety medicine that my doctor gave me like a month ago that I didn't start because my anxiety wouldn't let me..
I thought I was dying everyday for the last 6 years
What happened
What symptoms did you have
You should do a video on whether you think two people with anxiety are compatible for relationships or marriage.
I been going through the same thing 10 years, health anxiety. some scans I have no choice because of the condition I was born with, but these are MRI with contrast
Im suffering right now, never cared about my health before. Did you experience symptoms and get diagnoses that were all clear?
@Cherelle thank you for your sharing 🙏 I face the exact same thing and feel so alone and scared. When you were pregnant did you feel also really bad? When I was pregnant my thoughts got even worse and felt extremely anxious. Now thinking about a second baby I don't know if I can go through this again. Thank you 😊
I’ve never related more to this. All started earlier this year with some numbness in my cheek and pain in my eye. Then ALS rabbithole with twitching and spasms and perceived weakness. Then aneurysm fear. Ive had multiple brain scans this year and have got to the point that I can sit with my symptoms but there is that fear that maybe I gave myself something worrying so much. This is no way to live. Found peace with daily meditation and thinking about living in the present more.
How are you feeling now
@@arunkumar-jj1fe honestly it’s been tough, but I learned that not reacting to thoughts and simply observing them is the way to go. My mind is trying to protect me thinking the absolute worst, so just allowing them to happen instead of flipping out getting another test is the way to go.
Thanks for this video.
God bless you!! (John. 3:16).
I'm writing from my daughter page, but I came across your page and let me tell you. These last 6 months have been an emotional roller-coaster for me. I'm still not sure if anxiety is what I have due to EVERY last thing I've been tested for come back normal. I've had numerous of test I've had ct scans,mri of the brain. I've seen 2 cardiologist, gi specialist, neurologist, I've been the er 7 times have many ekgs, echo, stress test, 2 holiter monitors, abdominal ultrasound. Constantly worrying and googleing symptoms. Thinking I'm dying is an understatement. I have 4 small children so getting better is a must for me. I have dizziness, lightheadedness, headaches, heart palpitations, pressure on my head, intrusive thoughts Constantly. It's so weird because it just started out of no where. I'm a nursing student so I'm learning about alot of medical conditions and illness. Being a student and a full time mother was very stressful so I'm not sure if that contributed to my anxiety but it's the toughest thing I've ever had to deal with in my 33 years of life. However, listening to your videos does allow me to know I'm not dealing with this alone
Cherelle did you ever think ylu have bone cancer. I kind od hung up on mh ribs on ly chest being not symetrical..its like just a little bit pushing out on one side and not im obsessed. I Google again. I have been fine for so many months and now this setback
Not everyday but it felt like I stopped breathing. It was scary but I just let it be but I came to.
Same story, it was so so bad.
Hi I've been getting symptoms thar are unexplained. All started after my kids mum was diagnosed with a brain tumor but Dr kept telling her it was anxiety soi can't trust doctors now hiw could I get over this
I am the same way!
Ho, hope everything is OK with you.... Do you use any med??
All mine came on after taking ciprofloxacin. Its awful I have a daughter who is now 7 and this began when she was 1 and half . Feel like I've missed most of her life with this crap. But I still work as a dryliner to keep her safe and roof over my wife and daughter.
Same here 20 cipro pills
@Florina Bayon That's alot . I only took x2 .
My father got CFS from those 1989 I have fybromyalgia symptoms that means all your family are allergic to them
Yes. I was given this drug and it all of a suden caused twitching I had never noticed before. I have had anxiety for 3-4 years at this point, but never twithcing. Then a PA gave that drug (ciprofloxacin) to me and the twithcing started. It has now decreased but at times will still randomly cause twitching on different parts of my body.
What side effects did you have from Cipro? I’ve noticed a change in my health since taking it.
I'm currently going through this hell right now. And it's affecting my job in a negative way. So scared of losing my job😢 Was having weird symptoms for months and then I got an e k g and they told me it was normal. So out of curiosity. I went online to look up my results for the e. K. G in my portal and it's said abnormal with Incomplete right bundle branch block Borderline with a rightward axyis
Im gob smacked at how simmilar this story is
Im still locked in this situation
Curently on low dose anti Ds
And started therapy
Anyone experience one sided paralysis daily from anxiety?? Leg and arm on one side along with facial twitches etc🤨? Thanks in anticipation of response
@@_FTCU thanks so much for replying.. it’s awful but nice to know it’s just another damn anxiety symptom!!
@@Fee293 I have like a constant lip twitching so I guess yeah
I get facial twitches mainly when I’m driving and the sun is beaming in my face. This never happened prior to anxiety
I have !
Sup girl how you been
Right now thinking I’m dying from ALS, it’s awful 😔
You’re not. Ignore those thoughts they are not true and all the symptoms you have are from the anxiety. I’ve been there it’s horrible but it’s not real. Stay in the now and focus on what is.
Me too I have twitches all over and hypnic jerks during naps
@@alandanger6285 same, 😢 how r u today?
@@karenfaustino3793 still have twitches tho not as bad or distracting and my hypnic jerks during naps are no more.

Why can’t we just “know” we have debilitating anxiety and hypochondria?! Lol
First
