Anyone relate?
Hi guys I’m currently going through intrusive thoughts I believe maybe OCD, I am digitised panic and anxiety but I have these intrusive thoughts that make me feel uncomfortable and as if they were real, my fear at the minute is that I may lose control or grasp of reality, or I’m going insane? Anyone else get these overwhelming thoughts that feel real too, I also was getting scared of people I have knew all my life, the feeling of something bad would happen to me, I wasn’t and haven’t been sleeping very well either? Xoxo

I'm sorry you are struggling.
Not sleeping will also make you feel worse.
It's important to know, you are not having a break down or going insane.
It can be hard to switch these thoughts off so it might help you to talk to someone to find healthy and lasting coping methods.
Listening to music might help alleviate the thoughts and reminding yourself, they are not real and they can not hurt me 💜💕
@purpleClementine952It sounds like you’re going through a really tough time with intrusive thoughts and anxiety, and that can be very overwhelming. What you’re describing—feeling like you might lose control or go insane—is common with intrusive thoughts and OCD, but it doesn’t mean you’re losing your mind. These thoughts are unwanted and don’t reflect reality. It’s important to reach out to a mental health professional who can help you with strategies to manage these thoughts and improve your sleep and anxiety. You’re not alone in this, and there are effective treatments that can help you feel more in control. If you want, I can help you find resources or coping methods.
