I have been dealing with anxiety for a little over a year. I feel like I am going out of my mind. I feel like I should be locked up and can't participate in normal life. I feel like I just want to explode. How do I get through these feelings in particular? I can tolerate almost all of the other symptoms associated with anxiety but when I feel like I am crazy I just want to curl up and die.
One thing in particular that makes me feel crazy is a thought I had the other night. My husband was telling me about a girl they found dead near our home and it sounded like she had been strangled. I immediatly started thinking about whether I could strangle someone and then the image of harming my family came into my mind. I just about lost it because I love my husband and my daughter and I know I could never harm them. The image is really bothering me though, like if I can think about it why couldn't I do it?
