Now I remember! I wanted to plague you with mindless dribble!

I consider myself a bright girl. Maybe not exceptionally so, but certainly not lacking to a detrimental extent. So why is it so that the "What's the worse that could happen?"s for daily, what others may consider mundane or ritual routines, can be so logically thought out in the calm of my own mind - where I can then comfortably imagine carrying

I think what might help in your situation might be cognitive behavioral therapy. I haven't been through any of this myself, I can only really go by things that have helped my brother, but he has an excellent cb therapist who has really helped him a lot. It might be a matter of finding a therapist that know what he or she is doing, because there are a great many out there who don't. :\ Something else that helped my brother's OCD was taking vitamin B12. I can't quite remember the reason why, something having to do with helping balancing out the brain chemicals probably. That might be an option to discuss with your thereapist.

You know what's wrong and you want to change it, which is really excellent.

doesnt vitamin b make you happy or something? my friend takes it, or some vitamin for happyness. i cant recall what it is though

[fleacircus]

I'm not too sure. I know that OCD involves a seratonin imbalance, and I think the vitamin helps correct that.

Cognitive behavioral therapy was only just recommended to me by a counselor (pffft, after four years of this stuff) and along with your suggestion I think it'd definitely be worth checking out.

councillors are largely fucktards. evey one ive ever seen has just made things worse. all they do is make you talk about your feelings and problems until they know everything, and then they have no idea how to fix it because by that point they are just as overwhelemed as you. and do you find that there is always somewhat of an undertone of "how much can you really care when your getting payed so much to listen to my bullshit? this is a JOB for you, you HAVE to listen and nodd"? fuck i dont know

I really hope that you can sort things and everything. You are fucking amazing and there's nothing wrong with putting yourself first.

Take care m'dear!

not very helpful was I?

[im_fond_of_tea]

On the contrary, you were very helpful! If Von thinks I'm fucking amazing then all's well ;)

And, eh, just thank you for taking the time to reply to me - I really appreciate it!
