My own thoughts scare me

Is it normal that being left alone with my own thoughts scares me so bad I cant sleep. I take medication for anxiety and anti depressant should I ask my doc to boost it up?

    I have the same problem, it's anxiety. Medication might help you a bit, but it's not a long-lasting solution. What you need is some kind of psychotherapy. I suggest Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, because you need to learn how to be in control of your thoughts and emotions instead of them controlling you.

    Good luck! :)

    I don't think you should ask him to boost it up right away. I think you should talk to him about whats happening; your recurring thoughts, and maybe its actually the medication that could be doing it. It doesn't sound possible, but you never really know with a lot of the medications these doctors prescribe today. Sometimes medicine does more harm then good.

    yeah, It's 50% normal and 50% not. I think u dont have to take medicine for sure. ur anxiety is a bit bad, Maybe u hab=ve to talk bout what u think and share bout it with ur mom or ur trustest friend.
