Lately, I have been having thoughts of bad things happening. For example, I can be driving fast and just have a thought of my car flipping over. Or see a pole while driving and think I will crash into it. I have dreams about people dying, people cutting off their arms and doing crazy stuff, and I have even had a dream last night about terroist taking over the united states and them blowing everything up. I dream of losing the closest people to me and so much more. I stress out over bills and constantly find myself buying new notebooks because I have to write every idea, thought, and goal down. It makes me feel organized and like I have my life in order. I saw my best friends puppy by the dryer and had a thought of it being put inside the dryer. Wow! The deep part about all this is that I am a very down to earth person and feel so embarrassed to bring this to the open but I cant control it. The more stress I have, the worse the dreams and thoughts get. Help!

There's nothing wrong with you, you're just a little obsessive about this. I mean it's not like you would ever actually do these things in real life, right. You shouldn't write EVERYTHING down, that's wayy too much, and itr might be part of the reason so many of these things are happening. I don't think it's unnormal to have thoughts like this. I've had thoughts like this too. I'll also think I'm gonna crash into everything while driving, because I'm not bery good at driving. Thoughts of people killing me, or there is always someone behind me. And when I do ever get thoughts of hurting other people, I try to stick with the fact that I WOULD never actually do any of this things. I sill feel bad about it though. You need to relaxxx big time, and maybe these things will lighten up a bit. There's nothing actually wrong with you
Dont record your obsessive thoughts! I had a bad experiance with a pysch who though me recording them would help, it made it worse. If you read through it thoughts that havent happend in a while will become aparent again. I have extremly bad intrusive images and toughts and on way to stop it 60% is medication. Its been working for me.
