Losing control
Does anyone deal with the feeling like they're about to lose control or go crazy. It's really upsetting and hard to deal with, especially since it ties into multiple themes for me.

I get this often. My mind will even put distressing disturbing images in my head and tell me that I’m going insane. Or like “psychosis” and it makes me feel so upset and anxious. You aren’t alone, just let it pass by and think about a comfort movie to watch

Definitely. I had a really bad panic attack in 98. Felt like I was going to lose my mind. Now when anxiety OCD breaks through that is my theme and u an with you it is so scarey. All I can say is I can go year or so without it and it rears it's head if I am super stressed or have had the flu. Easier said than done but if you can try to stay engaged meaning phone a friend or family member, go for a walk, go exercise, go the mall something to try to take your mind off your thoughts. A mantra that helps me that I learned from someone else is thoughts only thoughts.

Yes I have a fear of schizo and my theme is that. When I get anxious or have a panic attack I think I’m losing control and it causes so much anxiety. I feel like I will lose control any minute and it just causes so much fear and hyper vigilance from me:(

Accepting is it scary
I have suicidal ocd and fear of depression. Lately I have really been trying to accept these thoughts and they are terrifying. Is this what OCD recovery feels like. Does the panic and fear and feeling like out of control go up when you’re trying to accept something so hard.? Anyone else like this? Do you feel out of control when acknowledging your feelings. Like the past two days I have really been thinking on my feelings and talking them in my brain but my panic is so out of control and my stomach hurts and I feel shaky and scared of my self. Anyone else!?!!

A Dark Cloud
Does anyone else struggle with the theme of being afraid of dying and death? I don’t really know if it’s my OCD or if something is legitimately wrong with me, but it’s starting to consume my thoughts. Sometimes it’s almost physically debilitating when it’s all I can think about. I guess I’m just reaching out so I don’t feel so alone in this.

HELP
Does anyone else feel like they think these horrible things on there own or on purpose. I feel like I'm intentionally trying to hurt god and the holy Spirit now and idk what to do. I feel like I'm becoming my worst fear. Idk what to do I feel like I'm losing touch with myself and idk what to do. And I'm really worried God is going to turn his face from me or I'm going to do something I am going to regret. I'm not really sure whats happening to me, but I'm scared I'm going crazy.
