I have read a lot of posts with people concerned that their thoughts make bad things happen....I too have had fears that have "come true". Maybe it is not the fact that we have the thoughts that CAUSE them to come true but somehow our minds are preparing us for the event. Not a preminition or anything but since we have already had the thought, maybe it helped us cope?

When I was pregnant with my daugher, I was so afraid that something bad woudl happen and I told myself that I could handle any physical deformity just not a brain injury. She ended up having a subdural hemmorage at birth. Body fine, brain damaged. However, I was stronger than I thought and I have handled it and surprised myself over the last 10years. I know I didn't CAUSE the trama because I thought about it... but maybe on some level it helped me prepare for it? I don't know... just a theory.

We are all very strong to deal with our minds the way they are. Maybe we were "chosen" to have OCD in order to spare someone that couldn't handle it? I am really in a weird thought pattern myslef right now with all this ranting.. I hope no one is offended by my writings or triggered.
