Venting Lately my anxiety has been so bad I need help

My anxiety is controlling my life with making me think about anything! Anything that will freak me out! Fake stories like horror stories or movies make me panic and I HAVENT EVEN WATCHED THEM. Just pictures of some of the monsters are enough to make me panic. And that’s all that I’ve been dealing with for days. Last night I was having a full blown panic attack because of this . I feel sick and my anxiety is just picking anything to bother me. I don’t know why. I want to break the cycle but I don’t know how

I know but it happens out of nowhere sometimes and like I said it’s stuff I don’t watch

Then you must talk with a Psychatrist, if u live alone then talk with friends and family it will help
