Hey everyone,
Just writing this for some information as it's always helpful.
I've been dealing with constant anxiety for about 6 months now and have been on medication for about 5 months. First I was feeling horrible and constantly having panic attacks, but after a while the medication helped and reduced the severity of my anxiety. I was constantly thinking I was going crazy and fearing depersonilisation which I still do but not to the same amount. My main issue is that all I think of is anxiety. I keep myself busy and have now started exercising and working out which has made me feel alot better and keeps my mind busy for a while, but majority of the time I think of how I have anxiety to the point where I'm obsessed that I have it. I constantly observe my thoughts and can't overcome it. Most of the syptoms of anxiety have gone apart from the out of body feeling every now and then because I fear it so much. I understand that acceptance is the way to overcome my thoughts which I try to do and sometimes I can feel good and positive about it, But at some point I start getting annoyed that I'm still thinking about how I have anxiety and my obsession with it. When I do think about it I mainly feel weird, uneasy and confused.
I just want to know if anyone gets the 24/7 constant thinking and what can I do to overcome this? I will not let it defeat me, I want deep down to accept it so it no longer has importance to me.
and should I go see a pshychologist?
Kind Regards,
Brad
