Hi I have a recurring thought, that strikes me during the day..
it's related to anxiety.., which I'm thankfully getting under control now..
but the thought is related to an unpleasant experience I had a while back,
about two weeks ago now..
I suddenly got this thought that I would get cancer because of my anxiety and the cortisol that was released into my system.., the truth is that I eat really healthy, I work very hard physically.., so I burn off most f my excess adrenalin..
Ok so that thought I going away now..
But the other thought is that because of me telling myself that my body was riddled with cancer cells once, I will somehow initiate some kind of terrible rapidly spreading cancer in my body..
I know that this is not rational thinking, because I don't have cancer..
All I need is sound medical information, and support, so that I know, I have not done some irreparable damage to my body, by having had that one single thought..
I tell myself every day, that I am healthy, fit and strong, I have visual affirmations that I superimpose in my imagination, of my entire body being free of any disease.., so why do I have this one thought..

Please help me to understand this.., and put it into a realistic light for me..

Ingo

it must be the fear of getting cancer from your "environment" - make sure you don't expose yourself to too much sunlight (especially in hot days) and stay clear of any radioactive substances. also, don't breathe in any carcinogens! (passive tobacco smoke is one of them)
