I think I have bad anxiety...My fiance works out of town and is only home once a month. Every time he goes out, I always think he is going out with another women. These thoughts are driving me crazy and I dont know what to do. I know he is not cheating on me, but I cant stop these thoughts.. Is there something I should take for it? I cant take it anymore

Dear
Welcome to HCM
We understand your concerns

I went through your details. I suggest you not to worry much. Being possessive is due to excess love. Possessiveness is due to obsessive thoughts. Brain (mind) is made for its own functions and its duty is to think. Therefore you cannot stop it from thinking. But you definitely can control the way it thinks by diverting its attention to more demanding things. Creative thinking should help brain diverting. If you try to forcefully overcome obsessive thoughts, it will come back every now and then and disturb you more vehemently.

The best method of treatment is ignorance. Be occupied with some job, hobbies, games, online activities etc.



Psychotherapy techniques should suit your requirement. If you require more of my help in this aspect, Please post a direct question to me in this URL. http://goo.gl/aYW2pR. Make sure that you include every minute details possible. I shall prescribe the needed psychotherapy techniques.

Hope this answers your query. Available for further clarifications.
Good luck.
