I'm a 25 year old entrepreneur who builds businesses. After having death anxiety, I can't plan nor think about my future or any positive ideas for business or life. Can't think about the next step like future is foggy and dark in my head as I feel I will die soon.
What should I do? Is it a sign for something that will happen or just fear? Has anyone overcome this?
I believe you have mentioned this before and it's fear that has taken a hold of you .
Fear is worry about the future that doesn't exist and is only a concept in this moment.
Why do you think you will die soon? What evidence or fact do you have?
Do you know that we are not our thoughts? Our thoughts, good and negative are fleeting all day long . They Come in our mind and they go out. You are the observer of the thoughts but you are observing from a distance . Think of your thoughts as SEPARATE from you.
SO, when you get a negative thought. Calmly observe and acknowledge it for a few seconds. Then watch it float off and dissolve. It's not you! Completely separate!
But you are allowing it to linger and drive you to FEAR, HOPELESSNESS, AND NEGATIVITY.
FEAR HAS PARALYZED YOUR PLANS FOR YOUR FUTURE.
YOU HAVE CHOSEN TO ALLOW THIS. THATS WHY YOUR FUTURE IS FOGGY AND DARK IN YOUR HEAD.
BUT you don't have to Allow it. Stand strong and determined!
ITS YOUR CHOICE .
Dont let go of the chance for a successful, bright future. Be a Fighter for yourself!
Dont let Fear rule you. Fear is not logical. There is no reason in the world why you cannot enjoy a great life.
Get counseling for support and to learn new positive ways to come out on top !!
Never give up!
Listen to great meditations on you tube for anxiety, being successful, happiness, etc
Thats what you need. Love yourself, be good to yourself, focus on your goals and you will begin to see how much you have to offer this world! ❤️❤️❤️
There's also a great meditation called Detachment from Overthinking
I don't think so, no one can predict their future. You have a fear. Don't let this fear paralyze you. I may not have this problem but I have Agoraphobia which has made me a prisoner in my own house for 7 years. Please try to get help. I wish you the best.🙏Take Care💖
Hi i was wondering how you are coping with this ?
I have the exact same thing as well as not wanting to leave the house
Recently it gets worse mainly at night time when in bed. I have this major fear come over me and i panic i will go to sleep and not wake up in the morning or just generally constantly think about dying.
Anxiety and depression has practically taken over my life at the moment.
I have been to the doctors this morning and started fluoxetine as everything else so far hasnt agreed with me
I was just wondering what you was trying to help yourself get better
Thanks jan for your reply, I got your replies and listened to your advice as I try to follow it. The thing is, I still don't know why do I have these feelings? Why am I scared of this and getting these all the day?
I will google it, thank you
Thank you! Can you tell me how you overcame it?
I'm still stuck inside my house. I went out of my house last week, didn't get out of vehicle but at least I made a improvement. Hopefully you too.🙌
Great step my friend. Hope you overcome it
You know what....... you may never know why you get those feelings. Anxiety shows its ugly face whenever it wants to. This happens to me also and I'm sure millions of other people.
i don't know why I get anxiety and sometimes negative thoughts.
all I know is that they come from anxiety.
but knowing why we get this is not truly the important thing although it would be interesting to know .
there are people who don't know why they get diseases like cancer even though they have a healthy lifestyle. People don't know why they are bipolar or have OCD etc. The important thing for them is that they get treatment to have a good life. That's the same with anxiety. I have put aside the WHYS because that's not going to help me Improve my life .
what will improve my life is learning how to manage the anxiety better.
go the opposite way of the anxiety which would be thinking more positively, getting counseling if you can, staying active and social and eating healthy, practicing mindfulness , Etc. I do hope you feel better!
Your so so rude and i thought this site was ment to be a place of nice people
try stop being a knob head maybe that would help
Thanks💖
I'm sorry kate. I didn't get your notification for your first comment. We're here to help each other about problems we have and I don't mean to be rude. Tried to reply privately to make it clear to you. My apologies again
What I do is to try to find the triggers that start the anxiety or topics that annoys me and acknowledge them and then try to find a solution for each one in order not to bother me again. This helps me to find a way to ignore the negative thoughts that comes in mind.
I hope you become better and stronger with your journey. You will become better
No im really really sorry
I did not mean that at all. Im just not in a good place and have been experiencing things in my life where people ignore me. And was up late last night from these new tablets and sent that before thinknig first.
Honestly the only person that needs to be apologising is me im very very sorry that is not how i react or deal with things
hope your ok x
No problem at all. I really appreciate your reply. I'm sure there are people who care about you and support you. Most important is to get better by the time.
Hope you get better
