Has anyone ever seen someone for when things get too much?

Hi

When my gran died a year and a half ago strange, horrific ideas were going through my head, I was absolutely terrified of going mad and I suspected it was PTSD.

It got too much for me and I went to see my GP who referred me to a mental health worker.

Turned out it wasn't PTSD but OCD- it's not just about washing your hands, although I didn't know that at the time. But you may have PTSD yourself and if that's the case you could do with some support.

I saw a therapist and found a great website for people who suffer from anxiety disorders.

I think you're right to take that first step, you're very young and in my experience I found the professsionals supportive; they were listening to what I had to say and involved me in the process,I've never felt patronized in any way.

Hope it goes well!
