I have been doing pretty good for a long time in regards to health anxiety. Each time a new thought would pop up, I could easily dismiss it and not engage with the ''what if'' questions. But it is slowly peeping its way back into my life again, and I find myself obsessing and checking my body every day.

We (me and my family) lost both our cats that we've had for 14 years this year. Our first one in january, the other one this april. We have been absolutely heartbroken and I still cry about it. At the moment I am really overwhelmed with exams as well. Can't help but think there must be a connection between these things.

Have you experienced something like this yourself, where stress in other areas of your life makes your HA worse?
