I get the sentiment, but no lie, I often have had health anxiety that I could actually calm down by googling symptoms. Because more often than not, the really bad stuff does not really fit into the symptoms I had, at least not properly.
We all do this

There’s a limit to that with health anxiety for some people, they need to believe in the illness enough that they’ll find the listed symptoms or distort things to fit.
One of those things that can be good or bad, depending on the underlying process.

Better yet.
Go to a Doctor and watch him/her do the same with a sciency named google.
Then you really know you’re gonna die.
