I need serious advice if anyone can give me some it would be greatly appreciated ever since my cousin passed due to suicide from paranoid schizophrenia and then my dad passed right after I get thoughts of what if I got schizophrenia and I get paranoid thoughts about paranoid thoughts it’s so weird it’s been hard to be around family and friends I’ve only been diagnosed with ocd anxiety and depression please any advice would help I’m sorry if I’m doing to much I’m just not feeling well

I come from a big family with ALOT of mental health conditions. A huge one being addiction. My aunt committed suicide (addiction and delression), my uncle has schizophrenia, 5 of my aunts and uncles are alcoholics (all but 1 are sober), my sister is sober and suffers from bad anxiety, eating disorder, and PTSD, my other sister has anxiety and depression, my grandparents recovered alcoholics, and I myself have anxiety and OCD. One thing to remember is these disorders are out of our control as far as there’s nothing we can do to prevent them from happening (for the most part). But what you can do is treat what you know is real. There are so many resources and support groups. You are not alone. If you’d like to know more on what you can do I’m happy to help! I know it’s not easy. But I’m here to offer advice if you want it! I know that was long but just wanted to share. There are steps you yourself can take at home every single day and you can see improvements. You are in charge of your happiness and how you want to spend your time ♥️

Try to get on some meds

It can and WILL get better if you truly want it to♥️

I feel horrible my family has always loved me and kno they all do and have no intent to hurt me it kills me to get these thoughts about them I cry all the time it all started after I found out my cousin had schizophrenia and it started with fear of getting it then the thoughts escalated I feel like a burden to my family
