Constant stress and worst-case thinking

I have been experiencing constant stress and overthinking for quite some time. Almost every day, a small issue or uncertainty becomes extremely stressful in my mind. My thoughts follow a chain: I think about what could go wrong, then its consequences, and eventually reach a worst-case scenario. For example, a concern about walking a lot while travelling became: what if I cannot keep up, others may not want to adjust, I may have to travel separately, it may become expensive, and eventually I feel incapable, dumb, and unable to manage life. This happens with different situations. Even when there is a lot to be happy and grateful about, my mind focuses on small potential problems. I feel constantly under some form of stress, and my mind rarely feels at ease. Sometimes I cry and feel overwhelmed or helpless. I want to understand why this keeps happening and how to manage it better.

Emotional & Mental Health Concerns

I’ve been going through a very difficult period emotionally, and it has started affecting me mentally and physically. I’ve been feeling extremely overwhelmed, emotionally exhausted, and unable to cope with things on my own. I’ve been crying almost every day and having difficulty sleeping. I keep overthinking and finding it very difficult to function normally or get through the day. Recently, I’ve also been having suicidal thoughts, which is why I feel that I need professional help. I would like to consult a psychiatrist and understand what I’m going through and get appropriate help.
