sometims i think i am cracking up with the thoughts i am having. they started of when my mother and me had to look after a wee todler and i thought oh my god what if i was to lose my mind and kill this child. this was about 3 years ago. i have had onoing thoughs like this and also things like oh my god what if i was to ever turn out to be a child molester. i know that i will never but its the thought of it e.g if kids are on tv its like i cant watch incase i do. this gets me so upset at the thought of it as i would never hurt or touch a fly even. i have spoke to my mum, boyfriend and g.p they all saying that everyone has these thouhts but alot of people keep it to themselves as they are stupid thoughts. however the doctor says i may be anxious. this was about 2 years ago. she said silly thoughts like this will eventually not bother me as i grow up. she says it could also be down to growing up i am 17 and realising that everything in this world is not peachy and that there are things such as this going on in the world. i have my anxious spells,guess i must be going though one again. guess i posted this to calm me down a bit. i just want reasurance that other people do have fucked up thoughts.

so it becomes a kinda argument in my head. No thats not actually anything like what u have just described
Anyway you arent alone. If you are really still concerned, you should see if theres anything else you doc can do or see another one.
cheers for the advice xxx
I don't let them, i literally force the thoughts away by overpowering it by another thought. Works for me anyway.
I think it sounds like you have some good people to talk to! It's normal to worry about things you just have to make sure that doesn't take over. If you feel you are getting more anxious and losing perspective you could talk to someone who could help you work out how to deal with how you are feeling. I've attatched a link below for you to have a look at. Try to stop worrying and worrying about worrying (gosh this is getting confusing) and take a few deep breaths.
