Gene Weingarten wrote a book about this - the short form is that if you get a bad enough disease that you are hospitalized, the doc tells you you'll be dead soon, and tells you to make arrangements and say goodbye to your family -

you will forget the hypochondriac disease stuff and get very focused on staying alive - no matter what. it worked for him.

You might never make 50. You might die in a freak accident. Why not worry about that prospect instead of about dying from a disease?
