OCD? Anxiety? Something else?

One other answer-er said that it's certainly not OCD, but I disagree--one major facet of OCD is the inability to stop thinking about something unpleasant. This often leads people to perform some ritual or behavior meant to either prevent some bad thing from happening (generally the bad thing being obsessed over), or banish the thoughts. Do you have any such compulsions? Even if you don't, obsessive thinking alone can be indicative of OCD, or of another anxiety disorder. You should seek professional help if you can. Message me if you like, and best of luck!

I have similar situations with my anxiety. Not as deathly as yours sounds though. Mine are a mixture of paranoia, anxiety and a little but of untrustworthy of the person... I guess you could say. It's a little different but I understand how you are feeling. Completely.It's almost feels like NOTHING can help it. I cry so much about this feeling when it happens. I feel like it's all my fault but then the feeling of the paranoia takes over. It starts to make me feel insane basically lol.I think communication is number one key in this situation. I know sometimes I feel like I would rather feel the pain of it all and suffer then to have the courage to talk to whomever is making me feel this way but I think evaluation is needed here. And honestly I need to take my own advice. It's easy to say/read then to do. But try is all we can and can is what we are born to do.

I definitely think you should look for more professional counselling. I can very, very much relate, and I want you to know that you are not alone. I'm not a professional, but I have my fair share of experience in the realm of mental illness, and it really does seem to me like you have some sort of anxiety problem. But I promise, it's going to be okay. A professional could help you so much more than I can, but until you can get that help, here are some things that have helped me: - Fact-checking. Think about the things you know for absolute fact: "My name is Marta. I am (x) years old. I have a brother/sister/mother/father." It helps sort of ground you- get your head back into the moment, rather than possibilities. - Mindfulness. Focus on everything you sense, exactly as you sense it. What sounds do you hear? Take a deep breath and focus on how that feels. - Think in terms of probability. Yes, it's worrisome when you don't get the call you were expecting. But think about possible reasons for that. Maybe the power is out. Maybe they fell asleep. Maybe they're not home. Maybe they're waiting for you to call. Maybe they were waiting for you to call, and then when you did call, their phone dropped the call. How likely is it that any sort of tragedy has struck? When you consider every option, the scariest things seem a lot less likely.And remember, above all else: you are strong, you are wonderful, and you are not alone. There are so many people in the world who are fully prepared and willing to love you, support you, and help you in any way possible.

Think of the statistics of things. Use calming methods, but most importantly just don't get too much in your head. Don't let your brain trick itself into panicking when there's no reason for it.

I agree with the others so far,but please seek some help if you find you are not able to control this if after a time you find its not helping and it continues.If your a student,perhaps a councilor where you attend school might be of some help .If not your doctor.But if you can focus on your positive thoughts,breathing keep practicing it,you should be ok! .
Its nothing to do with OCD though,as that an entirely different thing. Take care!

It's probably just paranoia and anxiety. There's probably nothing you can do to stop the thoughts completely, just how you handle them. Take deep breaths and tell yourself that everyone is okay, you are okay, etc. When you start getting nervous about the thoughts, just focus on your breathing and try to clear your head.
