Worrying about "manifesting" conditions
I don't know how to really explain this without sounding stupid, but for some reason my mind seems to believe that if I worry about something too much then I'll somehow get it from just thinking about it. I don't know how it gets to that conclusion, and I'm aware it's unrealistic but I cannot help but think it and it makes me panic a lot more when my HA gets bad, as I'm already worrying about having something and then my brain wants to tell me that I definitely will get it since I'm thinking about it.
I'd really like to know if this is a thing that happens to others? Apologies if this post makes no sense I don't know how to explain too well.
