Does anyone else have the obsession that they are going to go crazy/ lose their minds even worse than they already have. I find myself constantly worrying that my mental plight is going to get worse, desptire evidence to the contrary. For a while I was obsessed with the fact that I was going to irrecoverably and helplessly lose my ability to think or function properly as myself...

Also, I feel like if I do something "wrong" or hurt someone/thing, I will get punished later. This can be quite upsetting and dehabilitating at times. I feel like if I don't think or do certain things, bad things will result. That's the generic OCD symptom I know, but at times, it doesn't get more specific than being compelled to say or do a certain random thing.

i am obsessesed by the thought of getting dementia, for a valid reason as i had several car and head injuries, my mother and her friends joke about it and you're supposed to say it just may be a "senor moment" when a person forgets what they are going to say

i also obsess as to where to put plats and forks on the dinner table, i used to waitress, spilling milk and all that old fashioned stuff comes to mind

I often obsess with the idea that I will never overcome my mental health issues. I use self CBT to try to force such unhealthy thoughts out of mind, but years of care and trying dozens of medications have had no effect. At this point I am feeling more and more like it is less of an obsession and more of a realistic view.
