Hello everyone,
I hope everyone is enjoying their day. My generalized anxiety has been at a high point lately. I notice that when my anxiety gets really high, I start getting paranoid thoughts; thoughts like I'm being spied on or followed. Sometimes I even start feeling like other people are able to access information from my thoughts. I realize how unlikely all of this is, but I still feel like the .001% chance is enough to set me off. Sometimes I can talk myself into letting these things go, but it only lasts for a few minutes at the most and then I'm back to being anxious and paranoid. I take 1.5 mg of Risperidone to help with my paranoia, but it only goes so far. I just wish I could find a way to shift my mind into not worrying about these things that are extremely unlikely to happen. I can sometimes feel the anxiety in my chest which causes mild discomfort and my body starts to shake from the inside. I'm mostly just wanting to write all of this out because it helps to put my thoughts down but I would love any input or suggestions. I know I'm not alone in this, but sometimes I can't help but feel like it.
