Answer by Countrygurl
Hypochondriasis is considered by definition is to be preoccupied with fears of having a disease, or the idea that one has a disease, “based on a misinterpretation of one or more bodily signs or symptoms.” This does not mean that the disease is imaginary, just that the person see body parts or signals as signs of a disease.
However, hypochondriasis in most people comes about after a serious illness or death within the family. If this is the case for you, seeking therapy may help, but as with any other condition, such as anorexia or alcoholism, it will never be considered “cured”. Ask your health care physician to recommend you to a psychologist or other mental health professional who can meet with you in person and discuss your situation and appropriate treatment.
I hope that this helps.
