Ugh.. having a lot of catastrophic thinking

Worrying intensely about the future. Imagining the worst. Will I be homeless on the street penniless etc etc. I hate catastrophic thinking.

I am going through the same thing at the moment. I do not see a future for me. I’m worried sick that I am going to end up on the streets very soon.

It’s a horrible feeling isn’t it? Things will probably turn out ok, but the worrying about it is the worst thing.

I have GAD and always had problems with catastrophic thinking. It’s very distressing. I definitely can commiserate with you @everhopeful

For me the future looks grim. Especially finances which fuels my extreme fears. I cannot think how everything will turn out ok. I only see an impending doom. I really hope this will pass…soon

Once I stop working the trouble will begin, will get disability, but it is not enough to live on. Drives you crazy when you think about it.

Sorry you’re dealing with this, @everhopeful. Anxiety about the future can be really hard to deal with. Hope you get some peace and feel better soon. Best wishes.
