I have been having thoughts that go through my head that i can not shake and they scare me to death. I know the thoughts are not something I would act on, but they are still there and like i said i can't seem to get rid of them. Am i going crazy? Is this common? If it is what can I do to help. Any advice please.

Hi lookin2bbetter,
To answer your questions, NO, you are not going crazy. Yes, it is common.
When the thoughts come, and then the fear goes through your body, tell yourself it is only anxiety, then get busy doing something to get your mind off the thoughts.
The more attention you give the thoughts, the more they will stay. Can you float through it, just let the thoughts come and then let them go?
It will take time, the thoughts will not go away over night.
What has you shaking and scare is the fear, the what if's. I have been through it. I understand it is scary.
I read a lot of Booms post here on line, and they help me. Read alot of post from people who have been in the program for a long time, and are better, just read and read, also do the program.
Always remember a lot of people here, understands what you are going through, and we are here for you.
