Hi,
I am going through a bit of a ruff patch at the moment and I know the thoughts I’m dealing with at the moment are really irrational. For some reason I am having a hard time dismissing them as just that.
I read a book years ago that mentioned something about voodoo death some weird concept where a person happens to die on a date they are told they are going to die.
I know this is ridiculous but I had this thought pop into my mind earlier today ‘what if I die on such and such date at this time (insert random date and time)’. For some reason, I can’t get this thought out of my head and I am getting increasingly anxious about it. I keep thinking maybe if I think I’m going to die on that day then maybe I will... and it sends me into a full on panic attack and constantly ruminating on it.
It sounds ridiculous I know. I am just not sure how to stop worrying about it.
