I don't want to use the word hypochondriac, but you definetely over worry.
We are here one day, and gone the next. Enjoy today, as if it was your last day here.

I’ve been on Lithium since 2011. I don’t think I’m exaggerating my symptoms or being overly aware of my risks with taking Lithium.
Yes, I worry too much, but I think one day my hypochondriac nature will help me catch an early onset of something and maybe get it treated in time.
