You need help with these thoughts as your obviously really struggling go and see your doctor ask to see a therapist or some sort of medication to try to help you

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Mariapalmer]

[Mariapalmer in reply to Johnnie1234]

They won’t think your crazy, a lot of people struggle with intrusive thoughts you just need some help and that’s ok , good I’m glad you’ve made an appointment

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Mariapalmer]

have you had what im going though ?

[Mariapalmer in reply to Johnnie1234]

I’ve never woken up everyday imagining jumping off things etc because although at times I wish I wasn’t here I’d never leave my family to deal with that so I think that stops me but I do have a lot of thought where I feel I can’t take life anymore, you need some help , a lot of people struggle with what your going through , therapy etc can help

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Mariapalmer]

[Mariapalmer in reply to Johnnie1234]

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Mariapalmer]

Nope but will be soon

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Mariapalmer]

oh okay i hope i get better everyday is a fight with this .

[Mariapalmer in reply to Johnnie1234]

It is indeed I’ve been fighting anxiety and depression for around 4 years now

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Mariapalmer]

wow thats long

[Mariapalmer in reply to Johnnie1234]

Very long I have no quality of life its very exhausting , it’s taken me 4 years to agree to take medication as I can’t take this type of life anymore , that’s why I always try to tell people to get help sooner rather than later as nothing bad happens to you like dying but you just loose every part of your life that is good and become more miserable as it goes on

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Mariapalmer]

im afraid of taking meds i had the anxiety panic attack with physical sympthoms for a year and a half but the negative thoughts those crazy thoughts came about a week ago back to back everday i dont know why.

[Mariapalmer in reply to Johnnie1234]

So am I , but I’m not prepared to spend the rest of my life suffering the way I do so I have to try

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Mariapalmer]

yeah same i need to get better

[b1b1b1 in reply to Johnnie1234]

Good for you in making the appointment with the therapist. I think it is a good start to getting you "old" self back. Just be completely honest with the therapist. They will NOT think you are crazy. The reason for this is that YOU ARE NOT CRAZY. xxx

[Tempestteapot]

Well done Johnnie for making the appointment! It's ok to tell your therapist about these thoughts - believe me, they are a common part of anxiety and I experience intrusive thoughts when I wake up each day. Your therapist won't think you're 'crazy' - she'll have heard it all before and it will give her a good insight as to how severe your anxiety is and how best to help you. Good luck - and let us know how the appointment goes.☺ xxxx

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Tempestteapot]

you doo what are your thoughts hopefully i get better

[Maagaa in reply to Johnnie1234]

1234 where is your family? Wife, Mom, Siblings, any children.? Usually a family member can be of assistance at a time when your thoughts are racing. Try reaching out chat with friends or family this will help while you’re waiting to speak to Dr or therapist. Keep busy God Bless

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Maagaa]

no children just mom and friends and girlfriend thats all for now im trying my best i dont know why those thoughts are in my head i never thought that way.

[Maagaa in reply to Johnnie1234]

Have you had a traumatic head injury or something like a death or event that could have scrambled your thinking. It does happen that you feel you’re over a traumatic event in your life but your mind and thoughts hang on.

[Johnnie1234 in reply to Maagaa]

no i havent had nun of them i just had a bad panick attack with weed i only had anxiety and physical sympthoms ever sense then over a year and half but the negative thought stuff had it for a week recently i wasnt thinking that way.

[Vibrap]

I am a very anxious person. Whatever I do become anxious and I have been suffering from it in all my life. Very often I get panic attacks as if some danger is going to happen to me. I cannot concentrate on anything and my mind will be wandering everywhere. I cannot go to bed until about 2.00 to 300. Am @nd I suffer from lack of sleep. As soon as I woke up in the late morning I suffer from all sorts of negative feelings and fears. In order to control my anxiety I do e exercise for about 45 minutes everyday. I also do meditation twice a day for 20 minutes each time. I have undergone very long term therapy and some CBT. But controlling my anxiety is not possible. I have very little mental focus and I cannot remain attentive. I have a wandering mind.
