Just wanted to share a laughable moment I had today (kinda laughable). So I've recently been FREAKING out about radiation exposure and all the xrays and CT's i've had recently #certifiedhypochondriac . That's been the focus of my anxiety. Well the last week or so I convinced myself I have oral cancer. 10000% convinced there was a tumor in my mouth or jaw and spreading in my face. So what did I do? I made an emergency dentist appt. because I haven't been in like 4-5 years (terrible, I know) and ended up having like 10000 x-rays done. Ok it wasn't 10000 but it was quite a few to get my entire mouth and the funny part is I was so relieved everything came back normal that I didn't even care about the xray risks. BUT now that i'm home guess who's googling "dental xray risks" and psyching myself out. LMAO. I honestly just have to laugh at myself at this point. This health anxiety thing is a TRIP. I hope we all can step back sometimes and REALLY try to rationalize our fears. I'm starting to realize the more I FORCE myself to do this, the better off I am. Of course, easier said than done!
