If you feel totally unsafe with yourself, I would say go to the hospital.

Therapy is supposed to be a safe place to share these feelings. I can understand your feelings. I have those a lot too. Try pacing things to meet your tolerance and don't take on more than you can handle. These feelings are very hard to deal with, but having support does help make the load lighter.

the hospital is for when you can no longer care for yourself, whether it be because you are a danger to yourself or you've stopped being able to care for yourself for whatever reason (which is just as dangerous).
take care, and good luck,
