Summary
Welcome back to another episode of Your Anxiety Toolkit Podcast. Today we have on Christian Newman, the Health Anxiety Coach, to continue our discussion on health anxiety. Christian was on the podcast a while back and because we get so many questions about health anxiety, we decided it would be great to have him on again to answer some of your questions. On this episode, Christian answers "How do I know if my symptoms are anxiety or something else?", "Is there anything other than CBT and ERP that I can use to treat health anxiety?", "How do I stop googling my symptoms?", "How do I stop focusing on sensations?", and "How do I learn to accept a doctor's diagnosis?" Christian also shares a bit about his 30 day detox program to help you recover from health anxiety.

| 1:18.4 | those main tools, answer the questions that you guys had. And so I am just really, really |
