yes it's called hypochondria. i have very bad anxiety and a fear of throwing up, when i think i'm sick i start worrying about it and actually make myself nauseous and then i worry even more. it's like a cycle, you just have to convince yourself it's just your mind making you sick and forget about it as hard as it is.



hypocondriac
