I think stuff all the time like my partner cheating on me, leaving me and worse. I have only been with him a few months and we argue alot because if he says something i dont like i go on forever about it and winds me up and my head starts to hurt.When i first met him i was more laid back, and his sarcastic jokes would go over my head and i would laugh, but now i bite back! and take it the wrong way. Am i getting mentally ill?

I don't think you are getting mentally ill. However if you are living with someone who is "making you crazy" that is not healthy either. People who make sarcastic jokes are passive aggressive and do tend to drive the rest of us nuts.

No, maybe you should try lightening up and not overanalyzing. When he makes a joke, take it as just that, a joke. If he says something you don't like, respect that his opinions differ from yours and give him verbal/mental freedom by agreeing to disagree. Why make yourself feel mental by thinking too hard or overrationalizing small things when you can just laugh about them and be happier in the end?

I feel you! I am just the same, and yeah I kind of think I am a little psycho too... but I don't know, might be because we have so much stuff in the head and we really are like obsessive people - I was personally diagnosed with obsessive-compulsive disorder.
I am not telling you you might be mental like me, but probably you have some self-esteem or self-confidence issues. Try to speak to your bf, make him understand you're a very emotional and sensitive girl and hopefully he will cherish you as the delicate person you are.

No youre not crazy! Youre just realizing that things he says whether he is joking or not effect you. It means youre caring more about him than you did when you first got together. The issues about you thinking he'll cheat...? where do they come from? If youve been cheating on in the past its hard to trust every guy.

No you are not "mental". It sounds like you have some trust issues, either that or you are getting tired of him and are unconciously looking for a way out.
