life help: I don’t think I can cope anymore. - Help.com

I don’t think I can cope anymore.

I feel very scared and extremely anxious. I feel not in control of my own life and that I have to behave in a certain way even though i dont want to. I think that is what scares me. This behaviour is what scares me and its like a battle with it. It wont go away and other peoples reactions to it scares me too.

You know what? Sometimes i feel like that too. And ive learnt that doing nothing about it, makes it worse. You need to get your life back on track. Just think, this is YOUR life not anyone elses. You have got so much to live for ! Dont let life pass you by. Ask yourself why you feel this way, and what is causing it?
It’s good that you’ve accepted it….Now try and fight it

I want to behave like a normal person. It scares me that this thing about doing strange things hovers over me and wont go away.

What strange things? Often people convince themselves they are being weird or crazy when actually they’re doing the same a lot of other people.
That could be you?

You said you don’t feel in control of your life…well guess what- you’re not supposed to be in control of your life. God lovingly created you for His pleasure- not that ur supposed to be His robots but we are supposed to love and enjoy His presence because He gave His life for us. You see we are sinful (bad…we miss the mark alot) but God is holy/perfect and He cannot be with bad stuff and He loved us so much that this was a problem so He created a way- He sent His only Son in the form of a man, Jesus, and lived a perfect life and died the death we deserved and thereby paved a way for us to be with God forever. He loves us and comforts us and takes control of our lives because we mess them up, but He makes something beautiful out of them.

Hi tilly, I read all these responses and wonder if you really feel heard? How would you like to be helped, what do you need from someone to help you? Help only comes in the form of decisions you make… so its up to you? How can someone help…
