I’m having intrusive thoughts of people harming me

TW: Mentions of Violence & Sexual Assault

Recently I’ve been having a lot of intrusive thoughts of people harming me in different ways. These range from physically harming me, or even sexually assaulting me. I have them all the time and I can’t block them out because even though I know it’s unlikely, there’s still a chance of it happening.

It’s also started affecting me at home as well. I can’t bring myself to leave my room when nobody is home in fear of something happening. It doesn’t matter if I need to do the laundry, eat, or even go to the bathroom. I cannot get myself through that door no matter how desperate I am because my head is filled with all these thoughts. It’s getting so bad that I have to get my boyfriend to come with me at night time if I need the toilet because I can’t go on my own.

I just don’t know what to do or how to handle these thoughts at all. Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated and thank you in advance.
