Try your best not to fight them. Respond to every one with “Maybe. Maybe I do have schizophrenia. I can’t be sure one way or another.”
Hey! Trust me, you’re going to be okay. Anxiety can’t kill you. But I get how you’re feeling. A lot of us have been there, too. What’s going on?
A lot schizophrenia fears been on my mind . I don’t want this to turn into a theme I’m trying to disregard but it’s getting to me now . My mind keeps telling me like imagine the way your brain can turn on you . Like your mind is not your friend . I’m trying to stay positive here but when I think about the future it’s telling me that I won’t make it . That I am going to completely lose myself I’m scared
Oh dude, I used to have this fear too and I’m sorry you’re going through it right now. The best advice I can offer is to tell yourself, whether you have schizophrenia or not, you’ll be okay. It’s treatable, and a lot of people are able to live a normal life with it. Other than that, don’t give in to any compulsions—especially reassurance seeking! To stop yourself from panicking, try square breathing. Inhale for 4 seconds, hold for 4 seconds, and exhale for 4 seconds. Repeat until your breathing calms. You’ve got this! You’re a tough ass bitch and you’re gonna show OCD who’s boss! Praying for you ?
I’m trying really hard to . I trying so hard to not let this get to me . I hate this
Are you fighting the thoughts right now?
You’ve got this!
I’m trying to not let it scare me . I’m also very sleep deprived because I only got like 4 hours of sleep the other night . So I feel like that is making me very anxious as well
Well try your best to get some sleep tonight but don’t pressure yourself! I hope you feel better :)
Thank you so much
I have also had these fears
Yeah a little
It’s not a theme but I feel it inching its way in
It'll get better only if you put work into it! Keep pushing forward! ❤️
Of course! Any time!
How did you cope with it ?
I know I shouldn’t, but is there any chance I can get some reassurance or some talking to. I just had the scariest thought and it sent me into panic
I’m really anxious but I really need to sleep. How do you calm yourself down? I have been not doing great with my ocd at all lately my head feels like it’s going to explode.
