its going to be my fault

[jen-x]

I keep thinking there is going to be an accident. my brother is going away and i'm terrified something is going to happen. The only way to prevent it is to hurt myself badly. i dont know what to do. normally when i think like this it is with 100% conviction but this time there is a part of me that knows that this isn't rational, but all the same i'm still thinking it.

how can i get through this without doing something stupid? What if something really does happen to my brother? what would i do then?

Are you angry with him for going away?
Often such feelings get translated via anxiety into what you're experiencing.

please hold on to the rational thought, that you dont have to do this. try and think that by hurting yourself you will be hurting him and not the other way around. i know its tough but please try and hold on to this.

thinking bout you xxxx

Hun, I'm sure everything will be fine. Try and keep yourself calm.
Use distractions or try to focus on something? Please stay safe, we're here for you. x

the more you feed this thought the more believable and bad it will feel
try and think more positive

Like Katie said, maybe you're angry with him for going. Sometimes we're not always aware of the anger.

I'm feeling the same at the moment. My parents are going away in a couple of weeks and I'm hearing from voices that they're going to die in a plane crash if I don't do something to hurt myself badly.

I don't know what to suggest, just that I understand how frightening it is.
