Q: I am getting stupid thoughts like my loved ones are dying and I keep thinking of what my reaction will be after my loved one pass away. I am really scared about this feeling and would like to get rid of it. Please help me out.

A:It is natural to have thoughts like this occasionally, but if they occur regularly and tend to affect your regular function and affect your well being, I would suggest you visit a psychiatrist. These could be a part of an anxiety disorder, and would improve with the right treatment that would comprise counseling and medications, if indicated.
