Dr. Google Has the Worst Bedside Manner
from 🫶🏼 Life And Bullshyt 🫶🏼 Hosted by Janine Schwartz
We’ve all done it. You notice a symptom, open Google “just for a minute,” and somehow end up convinced the worst is about to happen. In this episode of Life and Bullshyt, I’m talking about my own experience with health anxiety, the rabbit holes of “Dr. Google,” and why our brains crave certainty when we’re faced with the unknown. This isn’t about ignoring symptoms or avoiding medical care—it’s about recognizing when anxiety starts writing the story before we have the facts. If you’ve ever spent hours searching your symptoms online, waiting for test results, or letting your mind spiral into worst-case scenarios, this episode is for you. Take a deep breath, and let’s talk about why sometimes the healthiest thing we can do is trust the process, wait for the facts, and show ourselves a little compassion along the way.
