I know i'm healthy, but i always think there's something wrong with me. what the hell..

Any ideas on how to cope with this?
Maybe meditate on the fact that im healthy?

It's not really YOU (as a clear-headed individual) who's thinking it, actually. It's your partially malfunctioned, anxious brain that can't help but conclude the worst case.

Take an airoplane flying past. Do you worry it's going to crash into you? or do you just look, take no real notice and carry on with what you're doing?
(An extreme example, I know... but it kinda highlights the point)

Mr super anxious would worry about the plane. Mr rational would not.

Who wins? Mr rational of course!

You need to adopt a "i don't give a shit" attitude. It works really well :-D

You my friend may have a "genetic dispostion" to be the way that you are and havent taken the time nor effort to find out how to clarify it, or discount it. Your parents, you G-parents,..You must do some reasearch because the things that you're thinking about at 15 ARE NO WHERE NEAR WHAT I WAS THINKING ABOUT!!..You're feeding this inferno yourself bro, so either learn about it or chill.. You've got (pulmonary embolisms) on yer mind and i had (pizza, party, p****) on my mind at 15!!....If you had "the switch" then you wouldn't be concerned like you are all the time bruh.
