Fear of going crazy! Lol
Sooo yeah, I have an irrational fear of going crazy. It's so annoying because I know it's irrational but it still keeps bothering me. It all started when I watched a few episodes from the show "obsessed", about people with OCD and other mental disorders. I've always had a slight fear of "losing it" ever since I was little and my uncle was diagnosed with schizophrenia (or however you spell it Tongue) My rational brain knows that I'm fine but I keep worrying about it. It hasn't plagued me too bad, I still go to work, go out and do all my normal activities but I still have this feeling in the back of my head worrying that I'm going to lose it! Haha

This seems to be a rare phobia, I'm wondering if anyone else has had this and beaten it? I love to read so I'm hoping to find a good book to conquer this dumb fear. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!!!! Mad0228

I think most people have thought they were going crazy at some stage....i know i have. I had a time period where i doubted my sanity and i suppose to some extent, this is a normal thing.

But i must admit im not scared of going insane.

I dont recall this really being discussed before but i will search through some old threads and dig some up if they are available.

By the way, welcome to the forumSmile
