I know this might sound weird to some people. But it is sort of like having kids with anxiety... I am 20 and developed anxiety in college. I have been halfway through the program and now am a little anxious about a new relationship that I have posted before. But anyways... I seem to just have random obsessive thoughts about everything lately. I have a younger brother who is 16 and a junior in High school. He will be in college in about 2 years. Sometimes he will pop in my head.. when im feeling anxious like this... and I fear that he will get anxiety or depression when he goes to college.

Me and him are so close and I love him to death. I am more outgoing then him-- as he is a little shy.. I just fear that he is going to not meet anyone and get sooo down on himself. I obsess about this sometimes. I hate it:( I guess I can just hope and pray he can handle it, but it scares me because I just feel like I will feel sooo horrible for him. I don't want to think about this all the time. It's weird how you can obsess about one thought and dismiss it, but then move onto another.

Any thoughts anyone?

Hello. I am so sorry to hear you are going through this.

Obsessive thinking can be so overwhelming at times, I know. It is equally important that you know to just let you thoughts be there! The more mind you pay to them the worse it gets!
