Author of His Own Disease

Description

When Baekhyun arrives home from China with his band members it’s to two e-mails. One says that nothing is wrong with his blood test and that he’s a healthy, young man. The other says that the mole was benign. Baekhyun begs to differ with both of them.

 

Foreword

about.


this story is baekhyun-centric. it deals with hypochondria and has a wrong, but obsessive view of somatic diseases just like actual hypochondria.

---

there will be references to chanyeol's oneshot (I'm Laughing but it's not Laughter) in this story as well, although the focus will be a different one entirely. baekhyun and chanyeol are not a couple, not in love or in any other way romantically involved but if you've read both oneshots you might understand the link between the two. idk.

baekhyun is, as said earlier, a hypochonder, a milder mental disorder but not everything has to be rare and groundbreaking. baekhyun is definitely struggling enough with his hypochondria as is.

if you choose to read, i hope you enjoy.

Hypochondriasis, also known as hypochondria, health anxiety or illness anxiety disorder, refers to worry about having a serious illness. This debilitating condition is the result of an inaccurate perception of the condition of body or mind despite the absence of an actual medical condition.

Chapter 1: Reading through this I found Baekhyun quite comical especially the way he goes from doctor to doctor and gets increasingly worried about everything. On a serious note, it must be so hard to deal with a condition like his. Baekhyun's mind is a dark place. Imagine your friends and family constantly ignoring your worries and doctors forcing you to die. Ugh! I'd hate everyone.

Chapter 1: I imagined myself in his shoes and how much tired i'd feel everyday. Physically drained from going to hospitals and mentally drained for constantly worrying of my impending death.. Poor Baekhyun :(
