I’m going crazy

I know I’m going crazy. I keep obsessing over small things. In my mind they are huge but when I talk about them I feel like an idiot but then they start up again and I need to talk again. Everyone is getting sick of me. I’ve called up 2 different helplines. I am on waiting list for counselling. I can’t carry on like this, I get thoughts I’d be better off and family would be better off if I died. I feel guilty even considering it as my kids who are both under 5 will be all alone

Hi Sue welcome to the club. You aren’t alone and there are ways to find your peace without carrying out your plan, it possibly failing and then you add guilt to all of the above.

Obsessive thoughts are the worst, so irrational when said out loud but in our heads they are massive.

The kindest people are those that suffer the most. Not sure if I can help but maybe feeling like someone somewhere understands might help a little bit.
