Intrusive thinking

2022-01-12 15:36:49
I have been having very distressing thoughts lately. For past six months, I feel like something is going to happen to my brother. I can't move past this thought. I cry every time this thought comes to my mind. I feel like this will become true since I'm always thinking.. It's like a premonition or something. I'm scared whenever he goes out or travel. I can't sleep at night. My heart races whenever this thought comes to my mind. I'm struggling. Please help.
