Hello!

I’m not sure that I 100% understand from experience but I can at least understand why someone would feel that way. Most of the thoughts that get stuck in my head may seem silly to people on the surface. If I was to say I was afraid of anything it would be my thoughts spiraling out of control. That process that begins with the simple thought “did I lock the door?” And ends with being just shy of a panic attack because me leaving the door unlocked leads to the gruesome death of my family sort of thing.

What thoughts are you afraid of? I haven’t been on much since maybe November but I’ve decided to make an effort to be more sociable again and I always liked this platform. If it ever helps to talk about it more privately feel free to reach out to me. Please just don’t be offended or think something is wrong because I took a while to get back to you. I wish you all the best!

Yes I know how you must be feeling, I had to go for a Dental Appointment for a tooth extraction Sedation Clinic and that managed to get me going, My mouth has been sore for a week now after treatment. Dentists put the fear of god in me

Yes. Sometimes my mind goes to some dark places, it scares me when I do that. I try to find something happy or at least pleasant to pull me out of my dark well

Yip . But just remember they are just thoughts . I always just say if they bother me “ it’s just a thought and I don’t believe in it “ and try to replace it with a happy thought or do something that I really enjoy
