Hypochondria
Anxiety Disorder Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Obsessed
I'm scared
Obsessed to die
No more normal sensations
Abnormalities
No more normal sensations
Afraid to breathe
No more normal sensations
don't breathe this fucking air
No more normal sensations
Don't live this life
In these lyrics, the singer is expressing their experience with hypochondria. They feel ill and are obsessed with their health, to the point where they are scared and convinced that they are going to die. They describe a lack of "normal sensations" and the experience of abnormalities that only serve to feed their anxiety. This includes something as simple as the act of breathing, which the singer is now afraid to do.
The imagery of "no more normal sensations" and "abnormalities" convey the singer's sense that their body has become alien to them- they no longer feel like themselves. They are trapped in their own mind and are desperate to escape the constant fear and uncertainty that comes with hypochondria. This is highlighted by their final plea to "don't live this life"- they are begging for a way out of this cycle of anxiety and despair.

You're incredible. Thanks for sharing this content for free with us here on Youtube.
I never realized I had anxiety or was a hypochondriac until I moved out on my own last year. most of my anxiety is at night when im stressed out and not sleeping enough because I think that I will die or something, and no one will be there to call an ambulance or find my body. I never have gone to the doctor over this because I always tell myself it's in my head, and eventually, it goes away and I feel fine.
My older brother was a hypochondriac when I was younger, and I remember going to different doctors to check his heart over and over, but there was never anything wrong with it 😂.
Now I know what he went through, so I try my best not to let it control my life.
I know I'm healthy , and I always train hard 1-2x a week because I know that I wouldn't be able to train hard and make progress each week if I really had a serious illness 😂. I know I'm healthy, but there's always a part of me that wants to freak out, but I do my best to keep it under control.
Thanks again for all the information. I really enjoyed the breakdown of the severities and levels of hypochondriasis.
