I forgot the word, but I'm like a sickness freak. Whenever I cough I think I have pertussis. ANd I always think about cancer and bad illnesses. How can I make this stop?
Sporkster answered Saturday October 30 2004, 5:10 pm: You're a hypochondriac? Well, all I can say is assure yourself that you're not sick. Try not to think about illnesses all the time. Think positive! Eat healthily, exercise, and you should be just fine. =) If you have any additional questions, feel free to talk to me. <3 Sporkster [ Sporkster's advice column | Ask Sporkster A Question ]

K3587 answered Saturday October 30 2004, 4:15 pm: I believe you mean hypochondriac. Anyway, your immune system is very strong. It has survived thousands of years of evolution and only gotten better through the generations. There have been lots of advances in medical science in the past thousand years as well. By the time you reach the age where you really have to worry about cancer and such, it will most likely be curable by then. There are millions of doctors, chemists, and scientists researching each and every day and finding breakthroughs in technology and medicine.
