I have anxiety have for a long time. Recently I started having strange thoughts and it worries me. I want to get past it and be my old self. Or at least learn how to cope and deal with it.

I feel the same.. I’m always trying to go back to my older happier self. I read a quote recently that said “you have no obligation to your former self” it relieved me from looking back at who I was, and encouraged me to start thinking about how I can create a new better me

Sounds like ocd.

You will be okay! This is only temporary! Maybe try getting the help you need such as therapy or see a psychiatrist to prescribe you medication. Remember what you are going through is only temporary, it will most last forever even though it may feel that way. Strange thoughts are normal

Hi Shiney,

I am sorry you are feeling like this. What kind of thoughts are these? might be difficult to explain, but when do they happen? how do they make you behave, feel? how long has it been happening?

Rather than trying to go backwards, go forwards and become a new better self. One that has mastered this situation. It's level up opportunity, you just have to beat the monster in the castle first. Tell us more if you can and we can support you better then! Take Care!

Happens at strange times makes me feel sick and often times the thought is totally out of my personality and scares me, makes me think I have a brain issue. And makes me detest myself for having the thought.

Not what you're looking for?
