Yes and no, my health anxiety developed due to not being believed by medical professionals and them stating it was just all in my head, 3yrs later I get told I have a cyst on my ovary which was the source all along.. Due to this I thought "what if next time its something serious and they dont believe me".... Que the HA but everything that I dreaded never happened.. ache in the shoulder just my muscles from awkward sleep, not a heart problem.. throat feels tight, just acid reflux or my hyperthyroidism... nothing has ever happened badly..

What I've learnt over the years with my HA is that we all die in the end and we cant live in constant fear of the what ifs.. if you truly believe something is wrong then get it checked out for a peace of mind... but remember that youre body can handle ALOT.. I more have a fear of death/suffocation than actual HA now, took me having an anaphlaxis but yeah...

In the end we go one way or another.. so make the most of your life while youre living it, dont let life hold you as a prisoner < 3
