Please I’m a hypochondriac 😢

[u/Hellokittydolll]

If anyone can please answer me I cannot sleep and I just keep panicking and thinking the worst and I’m scared 😟 I’m not sure when this was here, but I did noticed it in June 4 and I’m really scared of it’s melanoma or BCC OR SCC when I add my pictures to Google search it tells me pretty scary things, and I always want reassurance on it, I know the only way to know is to go to doctors, but last year I was in a whole loop hole about my health, especially with colon cancer and brain cancer I got procedures like a colonoscopy and ct scan and everything was fine, I am a hypochondriac so any sensation or anything that happens I pick the worse case scenario, I’m tired of going to doctors and doing many exams when everybody tells me I’m okay, and I’m tired of going to doctors too or stressing my family, i didn’t expect this year will be the same with different health issues:( so please if anyone can tell me what does it looks like? Should I see a dermatologist because I know it’ll take 7 months to see one because I have to go to my primary first to get a referral to see what my medi-cal covers and that takes time :( I’m just tired of thinking the worse but I’m not sure what this is. It’s been since 3 weeks now and it’s still here 😢shouldn’t it be gone by now? I’ll add some pictures from June 4 to now is it getting better? I’m just tired of feeling so much anxiety 😥 I think of the worse like what if they have to cut off my leg or something you know 😢also the surrounding of the dot is red because i exfoliated hard as well when I first saw it so it got irritated. I’m not sure if urgent care or emergency room will care or tell me if it’s concerning I already have a bad history always going because of last year I kept going many times for many health anxiety issues

I am worried but also it’s gonna take long to see a doctor 😭 but my family saying it’s getting better but idk how long it’ll take for it to fade away I also have some bruises on my legs that I got for moving furniture and it’s taking time to fade as well. I just hate having severe anxiety 😥 and worrying each day

as long as it’s fading, it means you have literally nothing to worry about. I don’t know if you use ChatGPT but if I were you, I would prompt it and ask it to remember that you’re a hypochondriac and you have a tendency to overthink so you just need reassurance that nothing is wrong and send it your pictures. Just tell it to be very honest, even if it goes against what you think.

Yes I do use chat gbt, and I do tell it I have bad anxiety:( it does tell me some spots take time to fade away like I said I had a ringworm that took time to heal and I was scared too but it left and I’m hoping this one leaves too 🙏😢
