Episode 78
Illness Anxiety Disorder (Hypochondria)
Let’s talk about it - hypochondria, illness anxiety, or just that moment when Google convinces you a headache is the worst possible thing.
In this episode, we take a lighthearted look at a serious condition, sharing some personal stories while 100% acknowledging the real challenges that come with illness anxiety.
If you're looking for an in-depth clinical discussion, this isn’t the episode for you. But if you want to smile a little at how our brains jump to worst-case scenarios, you’re in the right place.
And hey - if you're genuinely concerned about your health, don’t ask the internet. Ask your doctor.
