I can't get the thought of death out of my head!!?
For six years I've been having terrifying thoughts about death. Slowly, I'm beginning to make peace with the idea of leaving this earth, but I still can't stop thinking about it. To keep myself from regressing and going back to the days when I'd lose sleep because of panic attacks and start shaking violently at the mere thought of dying, I've been busying myself with religion. Now, I'm constantly thinking about death and eternity. Almost every second of the day. My own death, the death of my loved ones... The thought simply doesn't leave. I'm terrified of the thought of myself or any of my loved ones being punished forever. I'm petrified by the idea of angering the higher power. Whether it's spending my time fearing the unknown, trying to cope with the loss of a family member, or trying to understand what sets the ones who are taken to what we call heaven apart from the ones that are punished, the thought of the afterlife doesn't leave my mind. What can I do to permanently (or at least for a long period of time) take my mind of this horrible thought? What are your thoughts on eternity? Personally, I'm terrified of something that never ends. Whether it's our daily work, our hobbies, our holidays, we all have a deadline on everything. The fact that time doesn't, the fact that it goes on forever, is too much for me to bear. I can't ask for professional help and I can't talk to anyone either. So far, I've been completely dependent on the internet's advice.
How do i get the evil thoughts out of my head?
I, too, have had this awful problem in the past. There is truly only one solution to this problem that I have discovered. It is found in the Lord Jesus Christ. I urge you to run to Him for a lasting cure to your ailment. In the Bible He has promised to give us a healthy mind (Second Timothy 1:7 "For God hath not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind") It is amazing what an encounter with the love of Jesus Christ can do. This solution is instantaneous, but it also requires some time to help improve your condition. The effects of sin (whether they be personally committed or those done by others) are devastating to our human spirit and mind. The cause of these evil thoughts arise from our sinful condition. If we were never to see another horror movie, or hear about some wicked atrocity these thoughts would still come because our hearts are wicked ("The heart is deceitfully wicked" Jeremiah 17:9). The best way to conquer this problem is to acknowledge your sinful condition. Confess your sins to the Lord. Cry out to Him who created you and knows best how to fix you. He will not ignore your case. You can also read the Bible daily and allow His Word to wash your mind. I sincerely hope receive the help that you need. God bless you.
I can't get these thoughts out of my head?
For some reason I keep having these vision in my head of cutting. When I take a shower I sometimes envision blood running down the drain even though its just water. I don't want these vision in my head and I know they aren't right but they won't leave! I'm afraid of cutting because I know about how you can scar and how it hurts so I don't even care to cut but images of it keep popping up in my head and won't go away. If anyone can think of anything to do please let me know because I can't stand this anymore!

Well, putting something good in your head will push the bad things out. One thing that helps me to keep focused on good things is regularly reading the Bible.
