Hello,
i am feeling kind of afraid right now and
need some opinions.
I suffer from anxiety/panic attacks and
depression too.
My father died unexpectedly when I was
just 14. I am now 26. I was traumatized
by this badly. I never really dealt with
it either.
I started getting anxiety attacks in high
school and they went away for a bit and
returned when I had been graduated for
about 2 years.
I am now in a relationship for the last 9
years with a man and we have a 5 year old
daughter together. He has become addicted
to drugs and seems to have some issues
with hallucinations too. I know this
relationship is bad for me and intensifies
my anxiety, but I have become co-dependent
on him and I feel afraid without him.
Lately I have been feeling kind of out of
touch with the world and feeling like I am
in a dream or outside of my body. With
these feelings I get bad anxiety and start
to fear I am going crazy and that I may be
getting really mentally sick. I can be
shopping in the store with my mom and if I
can't find her, I get scared I never even
went to the store with her and that maybe
I am just crazy. I know in my heart that
isn't the case when I am thinking it, but
I can't stop the thoughts once they start.
Could it be paranoia and maybe ocd? I
get so caught up in these thoughts that I
am losing it that I can't calm myself
enough to get back to reality! I just
recently started dealing with this! My
live in boyfriend has gotten much worse
and I am constantly tense and feeling
nervous. Could that be part of it? Any
advice would be great!!!

Hi,
your boyfriend has hallucinations and you
have anxiety problems. Why is he having
hallucinations?? (schizophrenia or
hallucinations from drugs)
i don't know your situation well enough to
give you good advice. For now, all I can
say is that your daughter is #1. Don't
put her in a bad situation.
It's so sad that a lot of adults get so
wrapped up in their own lives that the
kids are left behind.
