I've just been doing some online searching re hypochondria, which has been infomative. Now, I'd like to hear what others have to say about living with a hypochondriac. How do/did you cope with it? How can you get someone like this to the Dr (I understand it is 'psychosomatic' and that treatment is psychotherapy). I'm about to lose my own sanity (some days are worse than others) listening to all the health complaints (I've tried doing online searches about some of the 'conditions' my friend 'has' and tried to walk her through logical explanations, but she's only interested in going to the Dr and trying all manner of treatments...) At the moment, we're roommates for the sake of convenience, but I really don't think I can take a lot more of this! Some days it is, literally, morning to night... I'd be interested in hearing how others have dealt with this. Thanks!
If there is a good site you know, could you please include it? I've mostly been in the Mayo clinic site. Thanks!
