I'm not really sure what it is. I always think somethings wrong with me. I don't know if it's because I want something to be wrong with me, or because it'd explain some things or what. Why would I want something to be wrong with me if that's the case? I just don't understand it. The second I get a headache, start having pains, start coughing or anything I usualy look it up to see what it could be. Is anyone else like this? Well thanks in advance, take care.

Whether it's that you're scared something severe is wrong with you or whether you want the attention you would get if something was wrong with you, that's up to you to figure out from how you feel when you're acting like that.
Do you want to be sick so that people would have sympathy for you and talk to you and want you to feel better? OR Do you think it's something severe because you're scared that something is really wrong with you and you don't want to die/go to the hospital etc..
Here's a couple sites to check out:
Go to these two websites and take the tests there to find out if you may have hypochondria. Remember, this is not a diagnosis; it's just a test to see if it could be possible.
