I had a really bad night last night which is a real shame as the last couple of days haven't been too bad.
I woke in the night and couldn't get back to sleep. My mind was really busy and just wouldn't stop thinking. The thoughts were really disjointed and for some reason my mind kept devising new scenes for Little Britain and becuase I couldn't make it stop I got the inevitable panic sensation where I began to worry I might go mad, dive out of bed and do something awful to my whole family.
I think I dealt with it in the best way. I didn't over react, I lay there and tried thinking of something else which didn't work so I tried just telling myself that thoughts don't mean anything. I didn't go into a panic and I did stay there and go in and out of sleep and these thoughts.
How do other people cope with things like this? I am shattered today and a bit disheartened. I know full well that I would never hurt anyone but it scares me that in panic I have those thoughts.
Any advice appreciated.
