It sounds a bit strange.
Basically I think I have a bad case of pnd and I'm not sure if this is normal.

So I've gotten to the point where I'm making weird superstitions? For myself. In corrolation to my children, more particularly one, my 1 year old dd.

I tell myself if I don't do something, she will die. Say if I don't turn the plugs off, there will be a fire and she will die etc. Its a really fucked up thing but I have to do it because I convince myself she will loose her. They're very weird random sporadic thoughts.

Anyone else? It's getting to a point where instead of taking 5 mins for myself at night, the house is deep cleaned for her incase anything happens, plugs off (and I check multiple times) the doors are locked (I check this at least 20 times) not for ocd reasons. But because random dark thoughts pop into my head that I'll loose her if I don't do something because of a potential threat or hazard.

It's not something that happened to me when I had pnd but it is a version of OCD that I've heard of. It sounds like you need to see your doctor and get referred for counciling to help you deal with this issue. CBT therapy along with medication really helped me with pnd.

Sending Thanksand hope you get help so you must be so tired and imagine if you feelings are anything like mine when I had pnd you are feeling guilty over everything you do and don't do.

Your not alone please get help xx
