Our minds oh wow how to turn them of??? Our brain is designed to process thoughts so its a rationale thing to do ....THINK...but what about the crazy things that suddenly pop up, do we call those rational? I don't know you or your history but I can say this as soon as you start thinking about stuff that can either hurt you or someone else its definitely a cry for help and fast. There are so many people suffering from mental illnesses that it's beyond crazy. You are not the first or only person that has had whatever thoughts you've had right now but

Good news you can get help and this forum is just a stepping stone

Thank you! It's not thoughts like hurting myself or anyone else just irrational thoughts but I'm seeing a therapist and learning ways to cope with my anxiety and panic attacks

Glad to hear you are taking steps to get better we all need help in some form or the other. Irrational thoughts just part of anxiety but together with help we can learn to cope, and even when you fall again just pick yourself up and try again. I'm always here to listen and help as far as I can. Be strong
