When trauma makes you afraid of your own mind

I started having panic attacks after my friend's suicide and now I'm terrified of my own thoughts even though I'm not suicidal.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Exposure to another's psychological crisis can create hypervigilance around one's own mental states, generating secondary trauma around the thinking process itself.
