Ok,here is the thing.
I've been living like this since I have memory, but now that I know that everything that is going around in my mind has a name, I can help it but to be really aware of everything I think. Obviuosly, I haven't talked about this with anybody, the feeling that I might be crazy is stronger than any need of info, but now that I'm trying to make peace with my condition/s I need to know and my T and Pdoc usually don't answer most of them. One of my biggest problems is what I think is paranoia to the point of avoiding a lot of things for fear that something really bad is going to happen. I really need you help on this; here is a list of things come to mind and don't leave me alone until I stayed home and do nothing it was planned to be done: -car accident -loosing money from my walet -carjacking -my daugther being kidnapped -my husband dying -somebody knocking me down and me not being able to protect myself -somebody getting into our house and hide inside it's so overwelming at times that I had have panick attacks over some of these things. What is this call? How can I find out? I'm bipolar and these fears have been with me all my life.

HI there
What you have described to me (in my opinion) Seems alot like an anxiety issue. and you mentioned panic attacks....you are right. You are afraid of these things which are irrational and this prevents you from doing what ever it was that you were going to do. It sounds a bit obcessive as well. Ruminating in your head over and over again.... This can be treated with medication.... Anti psychotic medication can help calm the racing mind symptoms and help with anxiety as well. I wish they were classified/named something else...cause in my mind.... why do I need an anti psychotic....when I am not psychotic! I got over that and do take it when I need it...my favorite is geodon. Acceptance takes a while..... Good luck in your journey bizi

Bizi, thanks for your reply, I know I have some OCD as well so it gets too much at times, too many thing to get obsessive over.

FYI
I went to my pdoc looking for a treatment for my obcessive skin picking...he put me on Prozac...i did not want to take it...am BP1 and was afraid of going manic on it. He said don't worry we will watch you.... I proceeded to go manic, bought 2 cars in 3 weeks... oh the obcessing picking went away and so did my brain. ~sigh bizi I fired him.....

Hi I believe bizi is right sounds more like anxiety disorder. It took me 3-4yr to learn my diagnosis from my t. talk about illegal on my pdoc's part.
