I’ve had overthinking issues since childhood, but for the past 3 years it has become very severe and mainly focused on my relationship. I tend to interpret things in the worst possible way and keep doubting meanings (e.g., whether something said is really about me).
I overanalyze past chats and events and feel a constant urge to mentally check things, but never feel satisfied. It gets so intense that I lose control over my thoughts, can’t focus on anything, and feel nauseous most of the time.
Whenever a new doubt appears, my mind gets overwhelmed and I can’t think clearly. I also feel that if I wasn’t in a relationship, my mind would fixate on something else.
What should I do about this?
My sister is 26 and lives in India. Over the past 3 years, after our mother passed away in an accident (she directly saw the body), her behavior has changed.
She manages daily activities (gym, coffee shops, online shopping, handling money) but is socially withdrawn, has no friends, and spends most of her time alone.
She has developed suspicious thoughts, especially about our cook. She says clothes kept in the balcony will get spoiled if the cook looks at them and believes the cook should only cook and not see her belongings. She also repeatedly tells us not to share our address or personal information.
She sometimes zones out and her conversations are hard to follow. She gets irritated if we suggest seeing a therapist or psychiatrist.
No prior psychiatric treatment. She lives with our father; I live in the USA. Please advise how to help her, especially since she resists treatment.
Hello doctor, I’ve been dealing with a constant self-awareness problem for a long time. I keep noticing my thoughts, body sensations, and especially my eye contact, which makes me uncomfortable in social situations.
This started around 4 years ago when I was in 11th class and went through a phase of depression. At that time, I had issues like sleeplessness, overthinking, and constantly analysing my thoughts.
I also had very high phone usage earlier (which I have now reduced), but I feel my attention is still stuck inward. My main problem right now is difficulty with natural eye contact and excessive self-awareness.
I would like guidance on how to manage this and feel normal again.
