Needs some advice A.S.A.P

Since I can remember I have been having issues with what my family thinks is hypochondria. Whenever someone around me gets sick I panic and get so anxious and stressed that I make myself feel sick. I do not feel like I am contracting deadly illnesses like what I've heard about from most hypochondriacs, but it is still a major issue in my life. I can not go anywhere without a kit filled with plenty of pills that i could possibly need. I can never stay the night anywhere other than my house because I am nervous about the "what if" factor. This constant worrying has been driving me crazy and making me miss out on so much in life. I really need some advice on what to do. I have thought about therapy, but the price is a factor. Please help me.

This really doesn't sound as much like hypochondria as it does anxiety. Have you ever spoken to your doctor about that?
