So, the existential question that overwhelms me is whether everything is objective or subjective-whether what we know is true or if everything is just based on our perceptions. If our perspectives shape everything, then what is the truth? What’s real? Is there anything in the world that is a solid, undeniable fact? I’m questioning everything about humanity-how we work, how human nature operates, and how much we truly know. If everything is somehow shaped by our personal experiences and perspective, then is what we are learning right now, math, science, laws of physics, psychology, even considered a fact? What is the truth? If everything we see is just a perspective, then what is humanity doing all this time?? If everything we understand is just our perspective, then it’s just something we think is true, it’s not something entirely right or wrong, then what is true?? If everything is just subjective understanding and not objective facts, then what is the actual truth? I know these questions are unanswerable, but I just have the urge and need to answer them. I feel stuck in this mental loop, trying to find something concrete that feels real, but everything just seems uncertain. It is draining me and my everyday life; I feel constant headaches, cold and hot flashes throughout my body ( stress symptoms according to my research ), trouble sleeping, tightness in my chest, low mood all day long, questioning almost everything in life, excessive researching, and the extreme need for reassurance, I can’t spend a day without talking to ChatGPT and searching on every social media about my concerns. Feelings of isolation, suicidal thoughts and behaviors, hopelessness, and extreme fatigue. Episodes of anxiety or panic attacks, I'm not sure which one it is. It's unbearable, and fear of not being able to be normal again. I’d rather sleep forever than stay awake, but at the same time, I’m having trouble sleeping too, I don’t have any time to rest my mind or body, my brain is just constantly analyzing, I am even struggling to believe in psychology because everything is shaped by our perspectives. It's taking over my life; I surely don't have hope in anything anymore, I am even struggling to believe in science, math, etc ( everything that humans acknowledge about the world, what people say and what I see, and even myself. I would constantly analyze and debate with myself whether this is a perspective, fact, or opinion and get the solution that life is complicated, but at the same time, this solution is also a perspective, so it is not objectively true than what is??? I can’t believe in reality and keep questioning whether what I know is real. I am doubting everything thing in life and every understanding I gained throughout my lifetime, and the worry and fear kill me inside that I want to die. My younger self probably never thought I would turn out like this, I feel like a disgrace and failure, everything around me collaspe, my understanding of the world and my worldview, I get intense fear whenever a person’s opinion about life is just a persons perspective and understanding or is there an actual truth is different than mind, to the point that I don’t even have an answer anymore, I am scared of theese philosophical questions that I kept avoiding them, but when my brain starts talking about it, I just need to start researching or I feel an panic attack might come up, every day feels exhausting and depressing, my mom got super mad at my constant depressive behaviors, she could’nt understand, but the thought is just so painful I could just crashout and die, It’s way worst than before, because the contest of the intruisive thought’s I had before this doesn’t affect me, it popping up is the core stressor, but this time the context of the thought terrifies me, leading me to doubt my whole understanding and whatever people say, I feel relieved when I found out about exsistential crisis, because I didn’t acknoledge this kind of thought as an mental issues, made me just go along with it and kept on thinking about it, when I realized it’s starting to get disturbing, it’s too late.

In summary, it's about moral relativism and perspectivism. It's killing me, and I don't think it will go away anymore. My whole understanding of the world and the word truth is collapsing.

I found out my existential thoughts are rare, not common, and I feel isolated and doubt if I could actually recover.

I feel the same way

Your thoughts control your brain chemicals not vice versa. Neuroscientists don’t actually know if low serotonin creates negative thoughts or if negative thoughts create low the serotonin. Hope this helps encourage you:)

Literally going through this now! Everytime I read about Delusions, Psychosis, etc. I literally go through the same thing. I heard about “Thought insertion” and it freaked me out. Now it feels like even tho I know I didn’t have those type thoughts before reading about it, and know it’s not true, now it feels like what you said, now I am scared cause like the more I try to fight it, it feels like my brain it fighting hard to get me to believe it. It’s so scary.

@@ShawnastyExtine I feel that if I did not know the symptoms of schizophrenia I would not have these thoughts, I had never thought about these things until I read about delusions and paranoia on Google, since then I have had delusional thoughts although I am aware that they are lies and do not make sense, When I have one and I remember that I read it on Google it calms me down and I think it may be due to an obsession, the problem is when I don't remember if I read it on Google or not and that's when I get scared that it is caused by schizophrenia

@ reframe your thoughts. Start by making a list based on 1.) your thought. 2.)What evidence makes the thought true. 3.)What evidence makes it false. 4.)Is the thought true. 5.)How would you feel if you didn’t have this thought. Keep in mind what helps me is knowing before having seen it and experiencing the anxiety because of it. It never existed. It’s scary, but I just think the brain in an anxious mode, firstly can’t reason worth anything and secondly will try anything to convince you if any “possible” dangers. The best quote I heard was, “Your brain will do anything to make sure you survive, but could care less about your happiness.” The brain only cares about self-preservation. So much so that it can cause so much pain physically and emotionally through anxiety, but it itself doesn’t even feel pain. Pretty one sided lol. Compare your values to your fears and you’ll find that anxiety attacks what you care about most. Also do research on OCD, it’s a doubting disorder and that’s literally what it does. Makes you doubt everything.

Dude just accept it as normal and carry on with life. Your brain did this because you felt immense fear and powerlessness, so how can becoming afraid fix this problem? Well it won’t, you’ll only end up reinforcing it. You face this problem with courage and acceptance. Don’t look up any videos, don’t use any safety mechanisms, and don’t tell yourself anything but this is normal. You raw dog all of it and after a while your brain will slowly repair itself. You do not have any power over this and that’s fine.

im in the same situation, but my therapist said that if im scared of that, that means that i highly probably wont get it. people with did or psychosis are not conscious of that

Hii What type of thoughts do u get in this ocd?
