I think somethings wrong with me.I love the dark yet
at the same time i’m scared stiff of it i think some guy going to be waiting in the dark to slit my throat .I like swimming but i can’t stand to get wet. And sometimes when i’m putting on my eyeliner a scenario plays out in my head that someone or something causes me to jam the eyeliner into my eye and when i’m around a lot of glass ( in stores) i get kind of sick because i think for some reason i’m going to cause all the glass to break. Is something wrong with me ? or is this just acase of over active imagination ?

erm yeah…..

no seriously….
I think you should talk to someone. There is nothing “wrong” with you I think but you need to take control of your thoughts. Thoughts are actually controllable, you just have to learn how to do it. Don’t hesitate. You’ll have a much better life.
i can be like that too sometimes…i have no idea why…just me i guess….i have anxiety and really bad fears maybe its something like that too or you just think to much about stuff…i would talk to someone about it they could help figure out why these thoughts go through your head and probably help get them out too!! hope this helps
I really don’t have anyone to talk to it about.I can handle the thoughts and all it’s just i wanted to know why i thought such things.
Hmm, Everyone has “strange” thoughts sometimes.. I have thoughts about being in accidentally pushed in front of a train. That happens a lot particularly when there are lots of teenagers from the “hood” there… Nothing ever happens and I dont think anything like that has ever happened in my country. But still…
I believe you ‘think’ far too much. Your sub-conscience is going into ‘over-load; but know that this could not be the exact reason. Are you are person that likes to think a lot?
Fear is a mechanism we use for survival. Without it we would be easy prey. It’s why a small animal in the woods will either remain very quiet and still, or run away, when a human or natural predator walks by. In your case, fear has gotten out of control. Yeah, I think a good therapist can help you conquer your fears head-on, and then the ordinary everyday things like a darkened room, a mirror or a pool won’t frighten you. Ultimately you will need to get these feelings in proper balance. It’s right to be aware of the dangers in any situation. It helps you to be sensible about risk. But don’t let fear grow into an enemy instead of what it should be, a useful tool.
Well i do to think a lot but my thoughts tend jump from one thing to another quick. Sometimes i can’t keep a my thoughts straight. I would go see a therapist but my mom is kind of against them.And if i tell her i actually want to see one she’ll just say to pray about.Not that i mind, it’s just been a few years and keep having these thoughts.
Is there a counsellor at your school? Maybe you could see them and explain to them that your mother cannot find out. I’m sure that they would respect your wishes.
Well i don’t go to school.I have independent study so i’m home except 1 hour a week.
nah, thats just normal paranoia, everyone does that whether they admit it or not. there isn’t anything wrong with you, don’t worry about it.
whoa independent study? through BYU? or something else?
Something else. Started school a bit late so they put me in Independent study so i can keep my 3.0
Not really. I can’t see any of my friends.
haha yeah i guess that sucks i did something like that last year for my junior year, i dont really know why… but yeah my mom really got on my nerves
Yep but the up side i get sleep late, i got a labtop and some other cool stuff.
nice, yeah it pretty much sucked for me, i didn’t get a laptop :’( oh well i’m going to school now and its not as bad as home(ish)school so glad im back now
Only reason i got them is because my dad thinks i’ll fail without it, Nice, I won’t be able to go back to school till like the beginning of next year.
