Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a psychiatric disorder, more specifically, an anxiety disorder. OCD is manifested in a variety of forms, but is most commonly characterized by a subject's obsessive (repetitive, distressing, intrusive) thoughts and related compulsions (tasks or rituals) which attempt to neutralize the obsessions.
My doctor increased my antidepressant. It did not "cure" me, but the repetitive thoughts of death stopped.
Please see a doctor again and tell him/her what's going through your mind.
for me i watch myself. like you said looking in the mirror -- you can see it. freaks me out sometimes, but like #1 says I tell myself, tomorrow is promised to NO MAN. we will all pass away so hurry up and live for today... make it silly... its not me its my ocd... it is like if I can tell myself the truth and accept that, yes, I know i am dying it takes the edge off the fear of knowing it
