I was just wondering if anyone ever dealt with worrying that their anxiety is something worse. Some mornings I'll just wake up feeling loads better - in a good mood, positive, ect and I begin to think "maybe this is mania, maybe I'm bipolar."

I was just curious if this was common because I mull over it in my mind most of the day. Any feeling I have I think it's something so much bigger. I get in a fight with my boyfriend and think I'm borderline. Or I see something out of the corner of my eye and I'm schizophrenic.

I just wear myself thin with worry that my brain is just going crazy. I fear that I'm just going to lash out at someone or be unable to control myself. I've felt like this for months and nothing has happened but I still worry.

Does anyone else feel like this? How do you get over it?

Thanks!

I have thrown words like manic around when describing myself, but I am not bipolar. I think that the diagnosis and label isn't important unless you are talking about meds and treatment.

Can you try and focus on what you are feeling versus what you 'might' have?

I feel all the same but I only have a conclusion. It's because my mind thinks too much. That is my real problem, my mind.
