Try to let the thoughts pass. Your gunna be where your trying to go later thinking why you wasted this time worrying when it went so well. Just try to relax. Put some music. Stuff I can sing with helps me out. And try not to give it attention.

I have never been on a plane. I have yet to get that worry. But. I am scared of heights not that it's the same but. What helps me in any worry is being relaxed. Maybe some music or somthing nostalgic like a movie or show... I like watching the sandlot. But I just try to enjoy the experience as much as I can I try to let the thoughts come and go. It can be hard but you will feel so much better when you land knowing you had nothing to worry about... Have you flown before?

I mean you seem rational just try to think of other things and let it pass. Talk to somebody if your flying with someone. Anything to get you to be calm before and movies and games are a good distraction mid flight so keep yourself busy I get the stressed part. This part of the year always hits for me I'm always stressed out and extremely depressed this time of year. So I get it. But ima try to make the most of my fall experience lol

Do you get anxious on planes? What helped you? I’m kind of scared of heights

I’ve been on planes. And I tend to enjoy the experience and as I’ve started to fly more for work I’ve realized I like to do things that help eliminate my stress: I like aisle seats. I don’t mind getting up for others but if I don’t have it it makes me anxious so I try to get them. I also aim for the back. Which may not be preferable to many it usually lessons my concerns about being able to use the over head bins. I also like the movies on planes but know ppl who use the download option on Spotify and just have their favorite music. Hope that helps.

Thank You ... I’m anxious right now as we speak but I’m not as bad as yesterday so we will see. I woke up kind of separated from myself if that makes sense and that freaked me out a lot

Good!! I’m taking meds but I think these meds aren’t the greatest for me. They are like adderall but since I’m going to start my period ( don’t mean to sound gross ) my OCD is way way way worse

Guys I need help. I feel so alone . Basically I have this compulsion where I feel the need to write everything but this stems from me being anxious about EVERYTHING. Like my mom came in my room and I was irritated and snapped, immediately regretted now I keep writing “don’t be mean to mom next time” but I keep thinking about it. Then I think about how I finally left my house today and all the surfaces I touched that could’ve been contaminated and now I’m writing “next time don’t touch this and this”. Then I think about all the things I need to be doing for this week and I’m writing “don’t forget to do this and this” even though I’ve written it 5 times already. This is what happens everyday btw. My brain always thinks about something I need to be doing and making me anxious that I’ll forget it which is why I write it down on my notes app. I’m sooo mentally exhausted I need help pls!! Anyone have any advice ? I used to think I need to stop the writing but really I need to stop the anxious thoughts coming into my head . People say I need to accept the thoughts and let it go but that’s too hard for me

I am having a really hard time being home for the holidays. My intrusive thoughts are constant and loud. It sucks too, because my thoughts get triggered when I'm around one of my family members. I just want to distance myself, so I can stop the thoughts and feel like I'm not going to hurt anyone. I'm so distressed and depressed. What do you do to help calm your mind and remind yourself that you are a good person, despite what the thoughts say? I've already meditated, taken my Lexapro, and tried to remind myself that these thoughts want to attack the things I care about the most. Thanks. ❤️
