[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I kind of get this, but not as bad. When I drive over the bay bridge I’m kind of panicky and am terrified of going over the ledge such that you worry you’ll do it on purpose. Something similar happens sometimes if I see someone walking on the side of a road - I’m worried I’ll hit them, and then I’ll get worried I’ll do it on purpose. It’s weird it happens, but I just try not to get works up about it. I don’t think that per se is cause for therapy, but my guess is that you have other anxieties you need to work through as well?[/quote] This is OP - I don't know if I have more or less anxieties than other people, but it feels like it couldn't hurt to talk to someone. I just feel very disoriented by that bridge experience, and worried that it is going to turn into a phobia. When you have those thoughts, are you basically like "Hey, that was weird," and then just get on with your day? [/quote]
