Worry causes stress, stress can weaken your immune system. Stop worrying and just enjoy what life has to offer in the here and now.
I'm terrified of getting a horrible disease, what can I do?
Huh this is the second time I talked to someone about this actually.
Do you obsess over it? That is a sign of OCD possibly. Otherwise, sounds like anxiety to me. Might just be having a small phase that will pass in time.
Advice: Try to live and focus in the present and try listening to your instinct, much of them work to keep you safe and make you avoid danger . But NOT if its irrational. Things exist that are out of your hands and always will be. You can only work on the extent of which they control you.
Sadly, we all worry. If its out of control then seek help.
I am actually curious however, what you mean by "Horrible disease" can you give any examples? I know people that to this day are living with them, it changed the way they live life. But are living.
So is it death you fear? Or is it the pain? What aspect.
You can live a healthy life .. That's about all any of us can do.
Thats life. You live only one time their is car wrecks cancer and everything else the world throws at you. But you go on
Why don't you just be thankful you don't have a terrible disease, if you get something serious later then you deal with it but we can't bog ourselves down with worry about what might happen.
Do you worry about coming into contact with germs?
You may be a hypochondriac . Your going to be alright.
The only thing you can do is try to make sure to live a healthy lifestyle. As long as you're eating right, exercising and drinking plenty of water on a daily basis, then you have no need to worry. It's really important to have an optimistic mindset to help you think more positively instead of worrying about getting a disease. God forbid if you do get a disease during your lifetime, there will be many ways to treat it, medically and naturally. I really believe this is why there are so many cancer survivors today, because they always try to stay positive no matter what.
