I know exactly how you feel because i have a similar condition. In my case it's not fear. It's the upsetting effect that a negative thought will cause. It can rule your sleep.
As other said, it becomes a lot worse at nights. I wonder why this happens...
Benzos doesn't really work for me in this condition. I have better results with hypnosedative antihistamines or anticholinergics. I suppose that any "thought suppressing" drug will also work.
Taking propranolol to stop the psycho-somatic effects sound like a good idea. I haven't try it yet.There has got to be a special psychiatric term for this special condition.. This "disturbing thoughts/memories at nights" syndrome. Anyone knows?
