Hypochondriac

[nh_user_674989]

I am new here and feel that explaining my situation may help. I am a hypochondriac when it comes to my health. All I do is constantly worry about my heart and wondering whether I am going to have a heart attack or stroke. Now, I have always suffered from mental health but this is a completely new form of anxiety for me. I consider myself healthy but for some reason I can not convince myself that this is the case. I create my own symptoms it seems; dizziness, heart palpatations, headaches and a weird feeling in my chest. All feelings that make me feel like in my mind it is more serious. My blood pressure is all over too. Sometimes it is perfectly normal and then high, so now I am concerned my blood pressure is high. I cannot seem to stop worrying. I been to my accident and emergency four times over the last year and a half with chest pains, heart flutters and everytime checks are normal. I have had blood tests, ECGs and they are all normal. Anyone ever experienced this before? I feel like there is always something wrong with me. I am a really active person too. I walk a lot, exercise a lot and it never removes the doubt in my mind. I am obsessed with my heart and always check my heartbeat.
