Loop of overthinking

@67Flo76

Hello, It sounds like to me that you are disassociating, I have done that before and the only way back to reality is by using logic thinking to disprove something. But sometimes the power of suggestion can have very immediate adverse effects. I used to think, when I'm suffering bad anxiety my TV reception was horrible, it was just way too coincidental!! My TV wouldn't bring in any channels when I was suffering bad asthma and anxiety mixed together. My asthma would concern me enough to trigger enough fear that it caused anxiety and then the anxiety would make it harder to breath and then TRIGGER WARNING I would have very bad fearful thoughts due to my not wanting to suffocate, I considered suicide - I've been on 7Cups about 5 years so far and have been going to therapy for about 4.5 years, plus I take the medications they recommended every night. Talking with people on 7Cups that have experienced the things I suffer with has helped me a lot. Just knowing we have a support team or at least 1 great 7Cups Listener that offers you helpful suggestions, and moral support helps greatly because then we don't feel so alone in the world. We are all in this together and we should all help each-other for many reasons, one of them being that helping others helps ourselves because we tend to give great advice and needing of those daily reminders. The sayings we tend to live by like,

"Those that mind, don't matter"

and

"Those that matter, don't mind"

Or don't let it rent space in your head. My therapist has become my closest friend and I totally adore her, and I appreciate her immensely. Keep reaching out and I promise you it will all begin to make sense! When you focus on taking care of the image in the mirror, you realize that first we need to really get to know ourselves and figure out what motivates us, and reinvent our interests and/or/hobbies. Finding your direction and purpose is the key to feeling whole. Having a support system of several people that understand about mental health issues.

Take some big deep breaths and find ways to really care for yourself. Self care = Self worth = compliments = confidence YOU'VE GOT THIS!!~

Blessings, Day

I had the same problem. I worry too much. But sometimes i tell myself that if something is about to happen, it will happen. If i don't get anxiety for it in advance, at least i saved myself from some mental and body issues. I hope this helps from my personal experience. Feel free to tag me in your future posts and updates. Will be really glad to see you improving❤️
