Dealing with a fear of illness and death, especially when it's been ongoing for a significant period of time, can be challenging. It sounds like you might be experiencing health anxiety, which is when excessive worrying about health becomes a significant source of distress. Here are some steps you can take to manage these fears: Educate Yourself: Sometimes, fear can stem from lack of knowledge. Educate yourself about the specific illnesses you fear, their causes, symptoms, and treatment options. This can help demystify the unknown and reduce irrational thoughts. Limit Exposure to Triggers: If news articles or images related to illness and death trigger your anxiety, consider limiting your exposure to these triggers. You don't need to completely avoid them, but moderating your exposure might help reduce anxiety levels. Practice Mindfulness: Mindfulness techniques can help you stay grounded in the present moment and reduce anxiety about the future. Deep breathing, meditation, and yoga are all practices that can help manage anxious thoughts. Challenge Negative Thoughts: When fearful thoughts arise, challenge them with rational thinking. Ask yourself if there's evidence to support your fears. Are there alternative explanations for what you're experiencing? Set Boundaries for Worries: Designate a specific time of day to allow yourself to worry about illness and death. During the rest of the day, try your best to redirect your thoughts to more positive or neutral topics.
