Scary thoughts

I am 20 years old. & I've been having alot of thoughts about me passing away. Anything I do, I feel its my last and a rush of nervousness runs through my body and triggers my anxiety and sometimes even panic attacks. I know it could be OCD but I am not sure. The doctor says that its anxiety and that I am healthy and have nothing to worry about, but I worry so much about everything. It has started to even mess with my everyday life, and I have been really sad lately. I don't know if I should go to a psychologist or if this is something I can deal with myself. I am scared of the feeling but I catch the thoughts and know that they are bizarre even if they seem realistic. I don't want to fall into depression due to the thought of me dying young. I miss being the way I was. I used to always be wanting to go out to places and was very talkative. Now I am fearful and worry of accidents alot, and bearly even talk. I want to feel better! 😔😔

@Yami33 Thank you for sharing! I could really sense how anxious and scared you are. I understand that you have consulted with a doctor already but it still concerns you. Maybe, you can talk about this with family or close friends. They can give you another perspective and they can help you figure out if you want to get 2nd opinion, etc. I think reliable, good sources of information on menthal health will also help. Sometimes, there is so many distorted information on mental health conditions out there can really hype them up and may instigate so much fear.
