I know you are scared to death of going insane. It's hard, but you've got to try and think of something else. The more you keep your mind on those things, the more freaked out you will get. I think you can actually see that in yourself.
There have been many times I've been scared of going insane too. I don't want to end up like my aunts. I don't want the FBI to have a file on me too!!! Whenever that starts to enter my mind, I have to FORCE myself to think of something else. Whether its by listening to music, watching tv, going out...anything to keep myself from being tortured by the thoughts and fear of my brain ending up like theirs. No thank you!
The more you dwell on the thoughts the more it will consume you. You've got to trust the people at the hospital who told you that you aren't insane. Who else would know better? They know what insanity looks like and you aren't that.
