Stop the Fear of You Thinking You Are Going Crazy Using Panic Away
February 13th, 2010 Posted in Anxiety and DepressionDealing with the loss of someone close to us can be very difficult for anyone to handle. It was devastating when my girlfriend’s mother died. Shortly after her mom’s passing she started to realize how much she was forgetting things. Being a perfectionist, super organized and always on the ball forgetting things really started to make her feel uneasy. If an appointment was forgotten or she misplaced her keys, any of those simple things would fling her into a violent panic attack. However, she immediately thought that this forgetfulness must be from some sort of undiagnosed disease and then those thoughts would attack her… what if it’s cancer or a brain tumor? What if I die? Why can’t I get this Panic away from me?
As time went by these thoughts became obsessive and she began feeling scatter-brained, unsure of herself and unable to concentrate on anything. All of these obsessive, irrational thoughts would send her into an anxiety or panic attack and spiralling out of control. On the internet for several hours she would be trying to find out which disease sounded like hers. She was certain she was going crazy. She didn’t even want to talk about it with any of her family or friends fearing that they would all think she’s crazy too. She was scared.
Death is a huge tragedy and grieving is normal and takes time. It’s not uncommon to feel forgetful, overwhelmed or scatter-brained. However, because her mind at the time could not think logically, her irrational thoughts seemed completely real and she became obsessed with running to the doctor every time she’d forget something else. She asked her doctor to perform many different tests but he concluded that she had General Anxiety Disorder, surprised but a little relieved, she didn’t know how to stop the anxiety on her own.
So you can see at the root of her anxiety was the fear was dying, especially after seeing her mother die. Most reasons of panic and anxiety come from being fearful of something.
