Having a really rough couple days/nights. I've been up all night, and I'm feeling terrible. I'm not sure what really triggered it, but my anxiety has been really out of control lately (constant anxious/intrusive thoughts, jumpy, poor stomach, sleeplessness). I been worrying constantly, and the lack of sleep this week isn't helping. As I've written before, I have a really bad fear of becoming schizophrenic. My mom has it (Thankfully Mild), and I'm scared of developing it. Anytime a weird thought pops in my head I end up focusing on it and I worry. Sometimes its like my mind likes to make up thoughts just so I'll worry. "What if this happens?", "That thought/image was really strange and scary. What if I start believing it, or start seeing things that aren't true". It's tiring, and it makes it hard to focus. It's frustrating because for awhile I felt like things were improving, and now it just feels like a major set back. It's terrifying because it feels like I'm losing my mind...
any advice how to deal or cope with it?
