Overthinking
I am 23 year old and was leading quite a normal life but since past one month every small thing makes me scared that it will cause some infection leading to my death. I think and search irrational things and about illness which makes me more si ck. If I post pics I feel someone will use against me. I am not able to concentrate on other things.

Hi, it is definitely not normal if u hv a feeling like this.
At the same time for every new behaviour there is a resin behind it. As it is just a month back, Pl do introspect yourself for the past experience and figure out the reason.
Otherwise I feel u better consult a Psychologist who would be able to help.u out.

Hello, from the brief description that you have provided here it seems that you have developed health and illness related anxiety and irrational beliefs. A comprehensive assessment to understand your problems and mental health status is required. I would urge you to seek a consultation with a psychiatrist near you at the earliest.
