MorningSadness my 10 year old daughter has just been diagnosed with OCD and I also was scared it was schizophrenia. She is having these thoughts all the time about killing herself and killing me and it is driving her crazy too, She has always been a bit anxious but in the last week what has gone on with her has blown my mind. The physchs have put her on medication a few days ago which has so far helped with the depression but not with the intrusive thoughts yet and they are non stop. I feel so helpless for her and my only wish is that i could stop these unwanted thoughts that keep entering her head minute after minute. The thoughts are not just about killing herself or me but there are also alot of thoughts that are obsessing about sex and sexuality at the moment. Again, she is only 10 and I do not know where all this is coming from. Anyway hang in there they tell me it does get better

Hello Morning Sadness,
YOu are such a repeat of me! I can tell you I have had the same exact thought many times not recently but in my earlier years with OCD! This is horrible I know! I have a terrible fear of the same thing and the real kicker here is that I have worried about it for 20years!! I can tell you you are suffering from severe anxiety !!and thats all..hang in there honey!! I am having a bad a bad week again too..so I know how your feeling! This is OCD in its worse form but, we are going to make it! let that anger you feel fuel your desire to just work around and drop all the OCD thoughts and garbage!! YOU ARE NOT SCHIZOPHRENIC!! YOU are just an expert at OCD!!!
take care of you:)
