Apricot (Health Anxiety)

Hypochondria,
Is what,
I’ve been,
Told,
I have,
Health anxiety,
Sounds,
So much better,
I sometimes,
Feel,
Like,
I’m walking,
In an,
Apricot,
Coloured,
Jelly,
Somedays,
It will hold,
My weight,
But,
Others,
I sink,
Down,
And down,
Never,
Reaching,
The bottom,
I am,
Constantly,
Worrying,
Over my own,
Health,
Checking,
For any signs,
Of lumps,
Bumps,
Or any signs,
Of being ill,
I don’t want,
To be ill,
But,
The anxiety itself,
Feeds,
Thoughts,
Making,
My head pound,
And my heart race,
I have asked,
People,
For reassurance,
And perhaps,
They can put,
My mind,
At ease,
About the doctors,
Tests,
Because I worry,
They might be wrong,
Or they have,
Overlooked something,
I don’t watch,
Any of the medical,
Programmes,
On TV,
But sometimes,
I’ll spend,
Hours,
Looking online,
To see if I can,
Find something,
That helps,
To ease,
The storm
Inside,
My head,
I avoid,
Physical,
Activities,
Incase,
They make me worse,
So,
Far,
The self-help,
Has made,
The apricot,
Jelly,
More stable,
I’ll write in,
My diary,
And keep,
Busy with other,
Tasks,
But,
I’ve noticed,
The worries,
Are preventing,
Me from leading,
A normal life,
The doctor,
Suggested,
Therapy,
I’m willing,
To try it,
So one,
Day,
My mind,
Doesn’t feel,
Like,
It’s a jelly swamp
