A member asked:
How can i deal with a loved one's hypochondriasis without sounding dismissive of his complaints? (other than suggesting therapy, which i have)..

Treat with Love: Listening is a great way to demonstrate caring. The core of a hypochondriasis is fear--recognize the fear and support your love one in finding peace and acceptance of fear as a part of life. Go for counseling together--with the idea of supporting your loved one on the journey of seeking freedom from the fear. Love and support with encouragement is the best medicine.
