Ah, Dr. Google. How I wish I could wring his phantom neck.
I feel quite passionate about this one, because I see 'Dr. Google' as a MAJOR BLOCK to progress in the healing and recovery process of tinnitus (& any health condition really).
If you watched my video on Health Anxiety, remember:
👉Googling your symptoms is NOT your friend
👉Health forums that are full of panic, despair, and negativity are NOT your friends
It is essential to keep in mind, you are not the same as the person next to you.
How could you be?
We are all entirely different people with different physiology, different psychology, different biochemistry, different lifestyles and with different life experiences.
Googling symptoms and engaging in panic driven health forums only feed into Anxiety.
Guess what... Anxiety is one of the main core drivers of Tinnitus.
Your friend is SCIENCE, GUIDANCE, TIME, FAITH in yourself, in the process of change.
Most of all COMMITMENT to change, step by step, day by day.
Small logical steps, create giant leaps of change over time. It's a cumulative effect.
That's the reality.
Google will not save you. Instead, it will likely destroy you in the moment, hinder your progress, prolong your symptoms and cloud your judgement.
Do yourself a favour, and fire Dr. Google! You don't need him.
And if you haven't yet watched my video on Health Anxiety I recommend you take a look to see if it resonates with you. Here it is below:
Until next time, enjoy the process of removing from your life that which doesn't serve you!
