In 2009 I had my first child. When he was 6 months old I started feeling like I was so anxious and it was a bad feeling that I couldnt shake and nothing I did calmed me down. People would say "Oh stop thinking about it" Ugh easier said then done! I dont even know what I am worried about! I am worried about now the future dying my son hating me! But most of all I am afraid of going crazy, I get irrational thoughts and think what if I ever hurt myself or others. But in the same sence one of my biggest fears is death! I then went to my doctor and he put me on something called Cipralex I have been on them for 3 years now and it seemed to get better Definetly not gone but better. Well in the last few weeks it has gotten really bad again. I feel like my mind will not relax but yet i dont know what i am worried or scared of. Someone once told me people that are crazy arent scared of going crazy they think what there doing is normal! It seems that I know all the right things to tell myself I can preach it all day long but when it comes to myself i cant shake my feelings. I just dont know what to do anymore!View Thread
