Q: obsessing over fear

My therapist has said that I obsess over my fear of being alone. I am not afraid to be in the house alone or forr several days. My fear is that I will be alone (no friends or boyfriend/husband) I already have depression and anxiety. I 44 and still living with my mother because of depression, anxiety and maybe this fear of being alone without her. I have friends now but, what if they leave me. I havent had a boyfriend in 14 years because I am scared they will reject me and that would be worse pain.

Can they give me any medicene for the obsessing? I know I need to build confidence but, I am still scared. I am already upset I am 44 live w/Mom and have no husband=depression and anxiety.

Any ideas? I appreciate your help in advance

it could be a OCD but it sounds like you have low self esteem and trust issue's i dont think you would benefit from medicine only because what you have i personally would not call it a disease. And you do not wanna be drugged up with all these drugs the goverment has to offer,when you can easily get over this hurdle in your life by gaining some confidence and atleast putting a effort in to meeting some one you can enjoy your life with and experiencing exciting things in your life.Many people fear rejection and being hurt,your not alone,But if you loosen up a little bit and focus on a Goal you would not need to be on any medications thats in my opinion.

Just go through the Basic sedona course and work on the fears furthermore if needed..You will probably be free of it all in a month or two without drugs..

You have to take responsbility for it and work on it,as you put time aside to take care of you body.Nothing else is needed,and it works naturally.

I will speak for myself. That was one of the biggest things I noticed with my anxiety attacks was fear. Anxiety is fear of everything as far as I am concerned.
