Answer:

Cyberchondria

Step-by-step explanation:

Cyberchondria is one of the recent terms coined to explain the information which a person tries to attain an illness through the internet. Internet is a source which helps in attaining all the information related to any topic. It is also a place where people walk in to seek for the other information. There are a lot of chances that this information may prove wrong, thereby causing anxiety and depression to the person.
