As someone with health anxiety I am constantly focusing/hyper aware of every bodily sensation or pain. My most recent focus has been on tiredness/fatigue. I usually only ever focus on actual physical “symptoms” like pain for example if I have stomach cramps, I focus on them so much that I constantly feel even the slightest twinge. I’m now doing that with tiredness but I don’t know if I’m making the tiredness worse by constantly focusing and thinking about it, is that even possible with tiredness?

I’ve had a couple of days the past week where I’ve been extremely fatigued, like barely able to keep my eyes open all day and other days (where I wasn’t as focused on it,busy doing other things) where I felt fine. 


I would post this on the health anxiety sub but the mods seem to be super strict on their these days so it will probably be deleted.
