Thank you guys so much for replying. I’m struggling with a new theme. I’m a little embarrassed to share it too. I was hanging out with someone the other night and I left pretty late from their place. They only had four hours of sleep before work.  I’m ruminating on what if something bad happened to them on the way in and back from work because they didn’t sleep enough and it was all my fault.  Logically, I know it’s not my fault since they decided to stay up late and I had no idea. So my ruminating is on what happens if they died, what happens if something tragic happened. I don’t want to reach out to them because I feel like it would be a compulsion, but I’m very tempted to. I’m trying to sit with these thoughts and do erp Now, in general, I have to tell my friends to call me when they make it home just because I have these ruminating thoughts

@arm_0 You’re right but I’m scared if I do and I don’t get a response then I’m afraid I’ll be anxious. We just met and I’m not sure how this person is. If he ghosting me but then I think oh well, at least I tried

@arm_0 Also, I need to get over my fear of texting people. I never reach out to guys who I’m seeing or dating because I’m afraid I’ll ruminate about it. This is such a new theme

Anyone to talk to
Hi! Does anyone struggle with loneliness? Especially when it comes to talking to your loved ones about what you go through. I’ve been struggling with this because it either leads to a fight or I’m not understood. My husband and I have been having some issues and I have a bad habit of bringing up the past. I don’t know why I keep doing it it’s just I get a thought and it goes into auto mode recently. We are going to marriage counseling soon but I try to tell him and family how I’m feeling and it just turns into a fight or it turns into me being dismissed. I just honestly want someone I can trust to hear me but it feels like I can’t really talk to anyone. I think it’s a relapse and I keep doing ERP but honestly I just need someone to listen. Does anyone relate or am I just it? I feel like I’m losing the love of my life and I’m breaking at the mere thought of it.

Chat Feature?
Does anyone else wish there was a chat feature to speak with a coach or counselor on here? I guess they might worry that people will seek immediate reassurance, but sometimes being all alone is horrible. I have had non stop adrenaline since Friday and being alone like this feels 10x worse. I visited someone yesterday, and I’m trying to hold out to see my therapist tomorrow but it’s so difficult. I am so alone.

Ruminating Thoughts & Anxiety
I'm having the hardest time right now with my own ruminating negative thoughts that may or may not possibly come true. I fear the worst and replay what that looks like in my head over and over. The best I can do is my best and wait for the horror to end. I want to cry, but can't. I'm scared and alone in my head. My anxiety is extreme. What should I do in the meantime while I'm going through this? How can I minimize or stop the way I'm feeling? Please, I need help.
