So for a couple years now ive been having thoughts that arent mine they arent anything big but its usually an innner dialouge i guess but im basically talking to myself in my head but its not like thinking. Im really struggling to explain whats going on but its scary. Theyre thoughts and feelings that arent mine and i knoe they arent. Its starting to freak me out and i feel like im going crazy. (Im posting this under anxeity because i dont know where else to post this)

    Im shaking and kinds losing it here but ill try to explain a little better than that. Its thoughts that arent my own they dont fit who i am its almost like a whole other persons thoughts are in my head i know it probably sounds crazy but its just random a couple times a day and they're things i would never think or say, and they scare me a lot.

      Hi james anxiety can definitely do that. Im going through a episode of it atm and makes me think im going to go crazy just things you wouldnt normally even think about. Have you been to see a doc??? Have you ever suffered anxiety or anything like that before

    I personally think you need to chat with you doctor. For years and years this used to happen to me. I was scared to even sleep but never mentioned it to anybody because I thought they might think I was a little mad. After a very recent tragedy back in may this tore down my wall I was hiding behind. And now I accept I have always had issues going on in my head which stems from bad childhood memories. This has taken ove 40 years for me to admit what really goes on in ,y mind. I am now grateful it has all come out. I do have good and bad days. I am receiving the correct help and hopefully one day with out night men's I can live a normal life. I still hear voices and when I'm in a strong mood I say no go away your only in my head. It is strange how we can not see what's going on in the mind because it is a very powerful tool and keeps us going every day. Before bed I read and stick on my headphones to relax before sleep you want to try this. Let me know if this helps.
