Greg has been to 3 different doctors insisting that his spot is cancer. So far, every Dr. has told Greg that the spot is just fine. What mental illness do you think Greg is living with

Answer 1

Answer: Hypochondriasis or hypochondria

Step-by-step explanation:

Grey is in 10th standard and is having a spot in his arm, he is visiting many doctors for checkup as he thinks that it is cancer.

So far, every doctor said that it is not cancer but he is constantly insisting that the spot is cancer, he is suffering from hypochondria.

This is a kind of mental illness in which the person thinks and is worried of having any serious illness. Inaccurate perception is seen in the people suffering from this mental illness due to which even if there is no medical condition they still force to visit doctors and consider themselves to be be severely ill.Due to this reason Greg thinks that the normal spot on his arm is cancer and is constantly going to different doctors for checkups.
