Does anyone get this? I don't mean the thoughts of self harm or suicidal ideation but of something, anything, it would be different for everyone, so awful it is terrifying? I am in an absolute state here because I am having this just now. It is not about me, it is about my daughter. I can't even say what it is it is too awful and terrftying an image. I can cope when they are about me but not my kids.
Logically I can tell myself it is an image, it is anxiety. I have had it before, although never as bad as this for a lot od years. I can't cope with bad thoughts regarding my kids. It is too real and too terrifying. It is like an image of one of the most terrifying things I can think of has been etched on my brain and I am had to check it isn't real. I have checked and I know I need not to keep on checking or it becomes a need and that need needs to be kept in check.
I feel sick with fear. I feel if I don't do something.......then this thing will happen.....but I sort of know it will not........but I am frightened it will.
I know it is intrusive thoughts and I can't believe I am getting it so bad. Like someone is playing with my mind.
Anyone else? What do you do? Does anyone take valium to help? Does it? I have valium there but I have to be careful how often I take it.
