A member asked:

Male 22. i'm so scared of lung cancer. i have anxiety and feel little breathlessness at rest, but during hard exercise i'm totally fine. never smoked ?

Glad you're scared: Hopefully you'll avoid smoking and thus make your risk negligible. You've done well already to get some behavioral Rx -- we all grow up learning a few things wrong, and getting with a wise person can help us with our blind spots and the things we do that aren't helpful. A few hours talking about your lung cancer fears, and a bit of awareness of what normal breathing is like, should cure you.

PHOBIA: Phobias are very treatable by a Clinical Psychologist with expertise in multiple types of psychotherapy to help you with ZOOM & a Psychiatrist for medication. Your fears and anxiety could be heightened because of the Covid-19 pandemic. Stay safe, cautious & hold on to hopefulness to elevate your immune system.
