hello everyone i have anxiety and depression i have just started having sessions with a therapist and have been told i have CBT i have been getting intrusive thoughts within my relationship and the way i feel towards him i am constantly trying to look for answers i even find my else asking people have they ever had these doutes within a relation i have even asked my nan and grandad who have been together for 50 years !!! silly right? i have been told by my therapist that this is all anxiety but how do i deal with it ? its a constant battle in my head and when i get anxious i take it out on my partner and then im questioning my self well if im having a go at him or moaning about something stupid does this mean i dont love him! i love him with all my heart but thoughts within your head are so dam over powering i have been so good for the past month and then bang it hits me again . who else is going through this or is with anyone that is exsperiencing this ! i would be grateful for any replies / support x
I suffer with a lot of negative thoughts and anxiety,sometimes I convince myself I would be better off alone bit deep down I know it’s not true ..Christmas day was very hard as I was experiencing a lot of anxiety while the family were here but was trying hard not to let it show so I didn’t spoil the day .I sometimes feel trapped in my own head and wish the thoughts would disappear.
its so hard because as its in your head you believe every little thing and its hard to push that to one side and get on with your life the intrusive thoughts are so over powering i have thought about leaving my partner because i feel guilty for feeling this way but its not what i really want its so so hard
I know exactly what your saying Lauren ,the mind is very convincing and you truly believe what it tells you ..I have good and bad days and sometimes my bad days are really bad .it doesn’t help that my partner has never suffered so she doesn’t understand the impact it has on me .
