"people with health anxiety tend to use both avoidance and safety-seeking behaviors as a copying mechanism"

so true. a few years ago I was anxious that I would suffer anaphylactic shock bc of food I ate (I suffered anaphylactic shock more than once bc of food so it was a legit fear?) so I tended to avoid food that made me feel it could happen again even tho I knew it was safe to eat
