hey guys,
erm im just wondering really if this is the behaviour is healthy or whethr this is anxiety. Just for a bit of background i have anxiety about everything, and sometimes obsessive or racing thoughts, also recurrent depression, sleep disturbances etc. im on meds for these things. But when i am home alone i am frequently too scared to open my front door, back door or windows. i also find myself frequently turning the tv on mute because i think i hear a noise and then the recurrent thought of somebody breaking in, or i imagine seein a man dowstairs or imagine looking round and seeing someones face at the window or door.
Every now and then it makes me really frightened, to the point i have to psych myself up just to go downstairs to the kitchen!
does anyone else feel like this sometiems??
