Fear that I'm going crazy :(

[Krystal]

Help!! For the past few days I've been feeling really strange. I'm terrified that I'm suddenly going to go mad or that I'm going to hurt or kill someone (not sure if its that bad but still) randomly, it came on when I got a cold and I've been frightened of it ever since. I'm terrified that when I think about this as I think about my family being in the thick of it if something does happen and I'm terrified of sleep walking and doing something! This came on so quickly I cant keep up (I did laugh at myself earlier because in a way I do sound a bit crazy about this, but still). I'm so scared that I'm suddenly going to snap, I'm so scared and I'm still also scared of dieing randomly or something like that. Please say that this is my anxiety coming back randomly (as my anxiety had been going well in recent weeks and I was feeling almost myself again) and doing this to me and I'm not crazy, I'm so scared. I'm so scared I'm not eating properly again as I feel sick when I'm not and when I am eating and I feel like I'm constantly in the flight or fight response. Anyone else had this? I've had this feeling before, but not as bad as this and I admit I might be freaking over nothing, but I cant help it. Help me please!! I work in a kitchen twice a week, imagine my anxiety levels then, not good.

Hi Krystal, you're not going mad or crazy. It's that old anxiety playing tricks I think. I don't have that prob, so I can't really help with advice. Is there a 'helpline' you can ring? Or maybe reading some of the info on this site may help. Do you do breathing exercises to help? X

You're not going crazy for the one single point that you know you aren't crazy at the moment If you were crazy you wouldn't know you were.
