Suggest Remedy For Mental Health Problem

hi, im having problems breathing. i have to yawn so long in order to get a full breath. i keep thinking im going to die, like everyday i feel like im going to die. its to the point to where im just accepting the fact that i will pass on, but im only 20 years old. i dont know why i feel like this, but then i start thinking i might have a tumor because of headaches and when my throat hurts, that i have throat cancer and my lymphnodes are swollen so i probably have HIV and then im going to die. i dont know what to do.

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. I sincerely suggest that you are victim of your own negative thinking. You cannot term your current state of mind as clinical depression.In psychology, we broadly call it obsession. You had that disturbing sensation once. You expected it to happen again and tried. Then you started experiencing it as you were expecting it. Then your body brought the familiar symptom because you are expecting it. Then you started worrying that the symptom is coming again and again and expect it. Body brings it again as you are expecting it. You become worried and so on. That is obsession in simple terms. Ignore it and the problem vanishes.

Psychotherapy techniques should suit your requirement. If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
