Lately my anxiety has returned full force. Something I was able to control by taking Luvox. But it's different this time. The things I think about lean more towards delusions in early stages. My worst fear has always been schizophrenia. Doctors always assured me It was just the anxiety making me think that. But Last month I began havin delusional thinking, always shaking them off. I started takin my luvox again and now the anxiety is back big time.

I'm not makin much sense here. I don't really know what Im trying to say. I guess what I wanna know is, when people have anxiety and worry that theyre going crazy, what if they really are going crazy and its not just the anxiety?

Well Chris, so far it looks as if you are not going crazy. I hope this comes as good news. You were able to type and get your message across. This is a good thing as far as worrying about crazy goes.

So many people on this board have had the thought they might be going crazy. It seems like a logical next step. There is some factual basis to the fact that none of us have actually gone crazy. I know this mainly because we all keep coming here chatting, loving, fighting and enjoying the comfort of dealing with others who have anxiety, dp, dr and other odds and ends thrown in.

Crazy thoughts may come and go, even the one of what if I am already crazy and don't know it. I suggested this to my brother one time and he said if I had gone crazy to just stay there...who knows, I might like it.

You're doing fine today, Chris. Try to put the what if questions aside and think of what you absolutely know to be the truth. One would be that you have high anxiety. Keep working on dealing with that one and don't conjure up new ones. :wink:

I do understand your thought. I just want you to know that someone, at this point in time thinks you are okay.

Take care,
terri

I keep thinking im gonna go crazy.. ive been thinking that since i was about 13. Im 22 now and well.. im not crazy yet.. i mean in terms of killing people and burning down houses. The fear of going crazy gives me a spoonful or two of anxiety every morning though. I feel ya.. unless you're actually going crazy, because then i most likely dont.
