What is the solution to overcome the obsessive thoughts related to the approach of one's demise and the repetition of daily routine, which come to me despite my commitment to acts of worship, knowing that I cannot discuss this matter with my family?
Anxiety and sadness are natural feelings that manifest in various forms, such as fear of failure or the future. They have serious physical, psychological, behavioral, and spiritual consequences. It is necessary to transform one's lifestyle towards productive work and setting goals, while paying attention to social relationships and religious knowledge. To treat anxiety, talk about your fears, accept yourself, confront your anxiety by acknowledging it and understanding its cause, put your trust in Allah, and serve others. Increase your remembrance of Allah, send blessings upon the Prophet, and supplicate with the words of Jonah (peace be upon him): "There is no deity except You; exalted are You. Indeed, I have been of the wrongdoers." Seek refuge in Allah from worry and sadness, exercise, sleep well, talk to a friend, live one day at a time, and do not postpone your duties. You may refer to specialized books on this topic, and if the anxiety persists, it is advisable to seek professional help.
