Confused??
Anxiety Support / by Haztaz
Last post
 July 3rd, 2016
...See more So basically I have always struggled with anxiety - worrying, overthinking, paranoia, stress etc and I find myself constantly on edge, I see almost everything as a threat to my well being and I feel like I'm just so desperate to stay alive (even though there are no immediate threats to this anyway). However, where I become confused is that I often have intrusive, lingering, obsessive thoughts about death and dying. Suddenly out of nowhere I will remind myself that one day I and everyone I love will die and I feel this wave of fear and sadness pass over me. After overthinking about death and how inevitable it is for so long I've started to question the point in life at all - what's the point in anything if we all die? So I find myself torn between two overwhelming emotions - sheer desperation to stay alive and the fear of anything that could threaten that but also complete panic and misery as I understand that what I'm trying to prevent every day (harm/death) is inevitable anyway. Sorry if this has been all doom and gloom and I hope it hasn't triggered any of you reading it, I just really need to talk to somebody who might understand how I'm feeling.
