Hi. I was wondering if anyone experiences obscessive/scary
thoughts? I started having them when my psych put me on
prozac/buspar. I'm not on any meds right now. They are often
about hurting myself or people I love. Anyhow, I was just curious
how often this problem occurs in with those who have panic
disorder. I talked with my psych who tells me that people with
anxiety tend to experience 2 or 3 different anxiety disorders at
once? Whether it be OCD/GAD/PAD.
Thanks,
me

Hi there,
Yeh, obsessive thoughts are all part of panic disorder. Just about everyone on here has some kind of intrusive and obsessive thoughts. It’s nearly always about harming someone or yourself or some form of harm coming to you in one way or another. It’s quite common to have 2 or 3 anxiety disorders at once. Something I’ve noticed is that the panic moves through stages. You might still have the 3 or so anxiety problems but they all tend to take it in turns at being in the drivers seat. So one week I might have OCD really bad. Then it quietens down a bit and depersonalisation kicks in and takes over for a few days.
The obsessive thoughts you’re having are very scary, but theres lots of people out there experiencing the same things. You’re not the only one!
Hope this has taken the edge off the scary thoughts a bit for you.
Take care

Sky,
I really appreciate your input.. I needed better skills in challenging my thoughts about fearing change. I need to stop backing out of challanges and face the fear. I feel it I wasn't so scared and sick I would be able to fight it but I get so anxious that I can't eat and get sick to my stomach. The fear get's so bad that it makes you question life itself.

Hey.
I don't often have thoughts about hurting myself or the people that I love although I do have intrusive thoughts. I can't really say what my intrusive thoughts are. They are just really bizarre and unreal which scares me because I feel like I'm losing my mind. How can I have thoughts that aren't real?? I just feel trapped in my thoughts and its VERY scary so I know how you feel. Take care of yourself and keep your head up.

hiya hun,
bad thoughts i think are just what goea with it but it makes things hard. when i have had scary thoughts then i often beat myself up about it as i feel bad about the things that i have thought, so please hun don't do that. now i try to let them come and go, and i try to make them to be funny, yes i do some times feel like i want to strangle my partner, but i picture him doing a little ballet dance and all my tension goes and i can't remember why i got mad with him.
your thoughts are yours, and your are special because of that, so even when things pop into your head, let it go and try not to worry and it will go.
i know it's ard but try to turn it into some thing else,
my thoughts are with you,
big hugs,
becca.

Yep, I get them, and there are a lot of different thoughts I get and it happens usually about once a day I’d say. It’s almost like something you would fear happening manifests itself in the form of a thought that feels like a desire, but you don’t act on it, it’s hard to explain, but very scary.

Sky,
I also have the same issue with backing out of new things when they come up and I feel it's a real setback. I'd like to talk to you more about this..

Think Possitive,
You (or anyone else for that matter) are more than welcome to email me if you like.
[email protected] You can add me to your msn list, if you use it.
If you do email me just put something like "panic forum" in the subject so I don't mistake it for junk mail.
Take care
