In psychology, whenever the teacher talked about Anxiety, panic attack, bipolar, depression, schizophrenia and other disorders, I would keep thinking to myself, "I think I have that disease."
So, the teacher give us a list of signs that you might have that disease, I keep thinking about that list and if I see one sign, that drives me crazy thinking about it.

It is a mental thing.... if you think it ......you will have it or get it. It is like drugs people think they have to have them and it is so hard to quit. If you tell your mind that you do not need them you will stop.. What makes a person who they are.. is how they think what is in there mind..... you think good you get good .......you think bad you get bad...

Hi there, sweet girl. It sounds like you are a bit neurotic. My mother is the same way...she reads a side effect and suddenly she has it. This is a psycho-somatic effect...meaning that your psychological obsession with the symptoms cause you to have physical symptoms as well.
A lot of disorders and illnesses have similar symptoms to each other, so it's easy to get obsessive over this. Don't stress over any of it...it's normal and some people just worry more than others. As you get older, you'll probably stop worrying so much about this stuff...but you're probably in a transitional stage, and have a lot of emotions running through you.
Take a deep breath, you ARE normal...(p.s. I am Psychology major working on my Masters)

LOL.
I've always been like that, too. Even as a kid, I would read my mom's Home Medical Book, and wonder if I had just about every disease or ailment I read about.
I currently work in the health field. I guess I was destined. So, for me, I think you are normal. I don't know what other people would say about us, though.

What you spot on conventional, is what's conventional. occasion: in case you spot a guy or woman hiccuping that often conventional yet while its nonstop for days or months, that's maximum in all probability no longer conventional. additionally if a guy or woman replaced into born with some thing like six hands on each and each hand won't seem conventional to us in spite of the indisputable fact that that's conventional to that guy or woman. So in specific circumstances that's a guy or woman ingredient that no person else will understand.

Did you know there's a disease that makes you feel like you have a billion other diseases, but there's really nothing wrong with you, other than your body wants to have a disease or that you personally want the attention.

What you is called "medical student syndrome". Happens very often.
Psychological conditions are extreme forms of little things that we all have, so you probably do have some of the symptoms that you read about, but that's normal.

Don't worry.. All of us have little signs of almost everything, it's the severity and the rate of the sypmtoms that make a person mentally ill. You're fine.

if it really does get you crazy thining about it then you obviously suffer from anxiety. Anyways my brother who graduated with a psych degree said it was easy for him to abstract things to make it fit into his own life, he was like it was like I had every mental illness. He also admits that psych majors tend to go into that feild to resolve their own problems. You probably do unfortunatly have anxiety, and mental illness is just like a physical illness, you should get it checked out.
~good luck
