Anxiety overload

I know this is ridiculous, but lately, I can't get the thought of death, or the end of the world out of my head. I've had anxiety over silly things like this all my life but they started to dwindle away as I hit 18. They still showed but were much less upsetting, but for the past few days, (thanks to an artical I read) I am now terrified, and I can't remember what I did to make them stop. I know this is a very silly thing to get upset over but I can't get it out of my head. The words keep going round and round and I can't get rid of them. I'm so scared that I'm just going to go back to what I was like when I was a teenager. I'm sick of being scared about everything.

I know this isn't much to go on but I hope someone can help.

Thank you

  •  I have suffered from severe anxiety thoughts about death ie how do we die ,what happens to us after we die and will i go to heaven or hell. Dont know why i worry about that as not religeous. sorry am rambling! The point is these negative thoughts that are anxiety provoking doesnt help us in anyway. when you think like that try and think of something else,like a funny film you have seen or go and do something distracting ie watching a dvd or chatting to a friend. This is the best thing to do if like me you have aways had an unhappy life.
