Why Do I Think Any Small Health Niggle Is A Life Threatening Illness?

Episode 4: Health Anxiety, Trauma & the Fear of Time Running Out
In this riveting episode of The Trauma Queen, we dive deep into the trauma roots of health anxiety—where triggers, subconscious fears, and past emotional wounds collide with our perception of time, death, and safety.

Have you ever spiraled over a small ache, a cough, or the fear that something is secretly wrong? This fear isn’t irrational—it’s often the echo of unprocessed trauma, especially complex trauma or abuse, where the body and mind learned that safety was never guaranteed. Jessica Ella unpacks the hidden layers of fear, mortality, and urgency that live beneath health anxiety—and how your brain’s survival wiring is trying to protect you.

Learn how trauma distorts time, fuels panic, and shapes your identity—and walk away with powerful tools to calm your system, reframe obsessive thoughts, and begin feeling healed, present, and truly thriving in your life again.
