    Negative thoughts
    :confused: I have been getting constant negative thoughts, like I need to quit smoking in order for God to bless me... then I not audibly have a thought, get up you need to do this do that obey God if not your going to hell... im evil, I'm wicked, everyone thinks I'm a hooker, there's no hope for me.. I know in my heart its not true, but I keep getting these thoughts, and it seems the more I try to fight them the worse they get... then I start balling over the littlest things... I feel paranoid like other people are spying on me... alot of anxiety around people, its hard for me to relate to them I'm tired all the time and absolutely stressed out and miserable!! I feel like everyone looks down on me and is judging me... I can't seem to stop dwelling on the past.. I feel like it's the end of the world pleassse help.. I can't concentrate I have a really bad short term memory and I feel like everything around me has to do with me... what is going on?

    I think the first step is to have a complete physical done to rule out anything physical. Tell your doctor what you are feeling, what's going on, have the tests done, it may be just a matter of a chemical imbalance or another problem that is easily recitified with medication.

    Also, finding a good therapist is a very good idea. Sometimes it takes a while to find someone you trust and feel comfortable with, but if you're having mental problems, a therapist is a good start.

    Do you have family that can help? Someone that you feel comfortable talking to? Letting out your problems sometimes helps. Keeping them bottled up inside only makes them more potent.

    Get checked out, that's your first step.

    Good luck.

    In addition to what others have said, I too encourage you to start with your family doctor. Write out the post you've done here, and ask him for an assessment.

    It is sad to be feeling so low, but you would be surprised as to what can be done to help you feel better about yourself, and address some of your concerns.

    Right now you need to take some slow deep breaths and try to slow everything down and breath.

    In from the naval and breath up releasing through torso and out mouth and gone!
    I can teach you how to meditate when you are feeling better.
    Take all of the above advice and know that we are here if you need us.
