Giving myself the stomach flu....

Ah, the power of suggestion!

Remember, it's only a trick of that nasty anxiety/

If your friend had won some money in the lottery...would you be jumping up and down, anticipating your 'sure to be' future windfall?

Of course not!

This is just negative thinking manifesting itself.

Kick it in the booty with your postive mantras and other tools.

Yes you can give yourself symptoms...and the more you convince yourself you have the flu, you will be making yourself more susceptible to getting a virus. Stress affects your immune system and makes you vulnerable to illness.

Oh totally. The amount of "diseases" I've made my body have is insane! Just remind yourself that if you're mind is strong enough to convince yourself of the negative, it's strong enough to get yourself out of that!

Thanks, everyone.

My mind was clearly playing tricks on me. Shocker!

I've moved on to new aches and pains. Stabbing eye pain!

How do you all keep from running to the er or doctor for every ache and pain?
