My dad for the past few days , is behaving Very different as in not responding much and staying alone in a room most of the time. He looks tensed all the time and doesn't mingle with us. Shows a very suspicious behaviour towards everyone. He has turned pale and week and have lost appetite.

Actually I am a very happy person and dont care about anything be very cool and positive. But now I always used to fear for everything that happens around me that makes me feel abnormal and get very nervous,stressed... If somebody has dead I used to think that something is going to happen for me also the same way I think for everything. I have a habit of over thinking that too only negative thoughts I tried to overcome this problem but I am not able to. Also I fear lot only in night so that i am not able sleep happily and peacefully something strange is going to happen is what my mind keeps on thinks. I wanted to change my thoughts, be more positive and get rid of my fear completely
