Health anxiety! And breast examination ?

How is someone with health anxiety supposed to do their monthly break examinations? I’m 26! And suffer from health anxiety really bad!! Every time I feel my boobs I’m constantly thinking I can feel lumps?...the harder I push the more I feel lumps!..I’m going to be ringing my doctor tomorrow to be sure! But I’m worried that’s what I’m going to be doing every month!...h I am currently doing cbt!...how am I going to get through this?

Sometimes their just veins.

step 1 = learn to do a personal breast exam (it's not about the harder you push)
step 2 = if you feel something, feel the other side... if it's symmetrical, then it's not cancer.

ask your doctor to do it
