My friend maybe I have said this all before, if I have I will repeat my self. Are you able at your workplace or if not when you get home to write about the irrational fear or the intrusive though to the degree that you can difuse its impact. When the negative energy subsides replace with thoughts of how you want the world to ne for you.that is inject positive energy into your life or replace the negative thought with positive ones, However way, you wish to interpert it. Be well
Hi. I have read some of your previous blogs and it appears you have a good attitude and perspective about your ocd (and ocd in general). However, I can agree and disagree with some of the things you wrote above. I agree that having support from others (both with and without ocd) can be beneficial in your overall effort to overcome your ocd. But, I think you need to be careful when you say it will be good when your fiancee comes from India and reminds you of the false fears of ocd. Sure, they are absolutely false – we all know that deep down – but YOU have to know this wholeheartedly, you have to be the one to control the FEELINGS that seem so real and you are the one that must continuously practice the resistance and mocking of ocd which is at the core of recovery. I am sure you already understood this and were just indicating that your fiancee will be there for moral support but be careful you don’t use her for reassurance. That will be of little use and more likely make the ocd worse. Sorry if I have stated the obvious to you. Best. Rob
