Mistrust of some of the fairer sex really able to bring them to the grave...
Luba was lying on the bed and stared at the ceiling: "it's over... Before health was not paying attention and now the game's up! At work drove. The house was great". It all started with an almost imperceptible pain in the stomach. Luba and attention at first did not pay. It hurts and hurts. But when she told us about the first signs of cancer of the stomach (from Nicholas, they say, likewise, all started), Luba lost the rest. In the clinic the doctor explained malaise "critical days". But she for some reason the doctor didn't believe, "he Lies, not otherwise. They, the doctors, 41 woman with a cart - Mare easier. I in fact feel this tunic, and there pulls. And for some reason it all on monthly knocks". "Hacking" is thus in itself a week or two she stopped to sleep for the night. And have seriously thought about it, of course, a serious disease. Fortunately, family time "matched" poor woman psychiatrist.
The doctors of the 2nd Minsk hospital told me that not once encountered with patients who... faked pregnancy. Women wanted to become mothers in the first days of the "delay" of the menstrual cycle they were told myself thought about pregnancy. In the end, all early signs of pregnancy were evident: increased breast, was sick, and the "critical days" does not occur. Then they got to the hospital, where they soon discovered that "the king is naked". Someone these stories will seem funny. Someone might be sympathetic. What can you say health professionals?
With the question: "
what is suspicious? "we asked the doctor of the highest category, the therapist Anastasia Peter.
- Know: every fourth of us at "favorable" circumstances could turn into a worried man. For we are all prone to fear of disease and die. And it is natural. By the way, the concern for health is often inspired not any particular disease, and a passion for the medical literature, stories of friends, watching movies, where the characters suffer all kinds of incurable diseases. It is ignorance, lack of understanding of many things cause irrational fear. And suddenly this to me?! Sometimes, it seems at first a little disturbing fears turn into an obsessive state. Doctors call this "hypochondriac fixation". Mistrust becomes a disease. The patient searches for new evidence to their fears. He is unable to escape. Focusing on suspicious symptoms. Then fires the imagination. Because fear has big eyes, and now the patient is "ready": the end of his clear - disability or burial mound. And because all is still "healthy" it is important to know: the hypochondriac's not just "shit perceived". He really can't pull myself together, because he is the greatest reorganization of the entire nervous system. Often suspiciousness affects women. They are more emotional. More vulnerable, and their nervous system is under the pressure of stress can give a "failed".

When can this happen the "rebuilding"? Are there any "signals" danger?
For the hypochondriac "starting" point can be any trifle. Easy angina in the imagination "imaginary invalid" becomes diphtheria. Headache - brain tumor. Nausea in acute pancreatitis. Not even too strong painful sensations in the legs or the back they seem to be the forerunners of severe lesion of the spinal cord. Such people live in constant tension, waiting for paralysis or heart attack, diabetes or glaucoma. They are confident that they are in danger of deafness and blindness. They don't even pay attention to what, by all the laws of nature, some days we feel better and in others worse. The roots of all changes in the body suspicious looking only at yourself. However, he is absolutely sure that somewhere something is decaying and and look into something terrible will result". And gradually from a normal person into a hypochondriac. And this is in itself evidence of a dysfunction of the Central nervous system. It is as if the "contamination of consciousness", which switches to "work in the body", and the fact that the norm of this work should go by itself, automatically. As a result, such dysfunction interferes with the activity of the cerebral cortex, usually aimed at resolving more complex problems "outside world".
- It turns out that the brain itself "provokes" the hypochondriac "looping". After all, the brain is able to signal any disease, to imitate it?
Alas... If you convince yourself that you have a sore back or leg, I assure you, really hurt. Although, lead doctors thousand surveys, nothing found. I had a patient that is not one year were examined in different cardiac clinics. The results of ECG and other tests were perfect. But she continued to pester doctors complaints, "But it pains me! " The woman was not pretending. The brain did send false signals.
- Is it possible to classify the types of suspiciousness?
Often one person can watch a whole bunch of different phobias: for example, fear of infection and germs, or bacteriophobia. These often turn to doctors for prevention". Fear of cancer (cancerophobia) or fear of sudden cardiac arrest (cardiophobia) makes hypochondriac examined almost every month. Being healthy people, they, nevertheless, really are asking for serious procedures. There is a phobia associated directly with fears of "white robes" or injections (and suddenly something will bring? ). Agoraphobia - fear of open spaces - is it terrible suffering patients. They literally don't release themselves from relatives day nor night. In fact, it is the same fear of death, illness, but motivation is loneliness. Claustrophobia - fear of enclosed spaces. And it is also a "mask" hypochondria. The patient is afraid of the Elevator only for fear that he might become bad, and there is nobody who could assist. The fear of madness, when a patient is unable to cope with thoughts about the disease, death is also a kind of phobia. And all together it is, as they say psychiatrists, persistent psychosomatic symptoms. And there is no help persuasion. And jeers. It requires serious treatment by a psychiatrist. And the sooner the better.
Otherwise...
- It can reach up to delusional ideas. The hypochondriac may decide to get rid of disturbing thoughts by... suicide. Such withdrawal sometimes it seems easier than the constant fear of getting sick.
- Some kind of a vicious circle...
- Scary and more. Hypochondriacs often not aware of the insolvency of their fears begin to self-medicate: unreasonably drink antibiotics, stuffed ourselves newfangled medicines for all illnesses". Not trusting the "official doctors", go to "unofficial". But this does not help.
What can you do?
- If you think you suffer from hypochondria, for a start all the same ablebits, check that hurts. If all tests are normal, go to the psychiatrist or the psychotherapist. The main thing is not to delay emotional suffering, which gradually go into a heartbreaking depression. If more and more you overcome the "bad" feelings, eclipses the joy of life, do not leave it unattended. Contact your psychiatrist.
Tips psychiatrist
If three quarters of your notebook busy phones friends, the doctors, if you are after a random story about death is not someone you know week can't come to yourself, you conceited. Not to whip up his hypochondria, try without the need not to read a particular medical literature and never diagnose yourself alone. Hypochondria is a manifestation of a mental disorder, then you need to strengthen your own psyche: less stress, more fresh air, vitamins, small celebrations. If the stage of suspiciousness exceeded all limits, the man simply turned off from social life. He can't work. All his thoughts, all desires are focused only on the need to stand up for themselves to disease and death. Do not bring themselves to such a state! And another thing: now there are many ways to get rid of the mistrust. Including without resorting to medication: hypnosis, herbs, sports, reflexology, acupressure and t.d. And from your hypochondria will not be over!
