Hello everyone. I am having a relapse episode of hypochondria. Does anyone know how to cope with it?

      I have somatization disorder so I get this all the time. Honestly I let it run its course and say "if it can wait 10 minutes, I don't need to go to the ER" and then I end up watching some video and realize "Hey, I feel okay" and if a symptom persists I go to a doctor when I can.

      For me I'm struggling with this to just when those thoughts creep in even if it's out loud tell yourself what you need to hear to feel safe. Listen to calming music or if your religious girly music. Stay around the people you love.
