what do you know about hypochondriac ? how do you fix it?
Hypochondriacs become unduly alarmed about any physical or psychological symptoms they detect, no matter how minor the symptom may be, and are convinced that they have, or are about to be diagnosed with, a serious illness.
You really don’t fix it. It’s a mental illness. You can try to remedy is with medication if it is associated with something like anxiety or depression, but as far as the hypochondria itself, there isn’t much to do.
person psychologically obsessed with his/her health. too much thinking and wanting to have some kind of illness .... can be treated with counselling and rehab
Many individuals with hypochondriasis express doubt and disbelief in the doctors' diagnosis, and report that doctors’ reassurance about an absence of a serious medical condition is unconvincing, or short-lasting. Additionally, many hypochondriacs experience elevated blood pressure, stress, and anxiety in the presence of doctors or while occupying a medical facility, a condition known as "white coat syndrome".
