Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Support Group
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.
I am struggling again guys - was doing really well and now am double guessing everything again. I posted a topic asking if anyone had sexual intrusive thoughts and received a heap of replies - well - I need your help again. Now that I have put those behind me I am thinking back to times when I was a kid and I "maybe had this thought" or "maybe felt that". Does anyone else ever feel like they can't escape the monster in you head?

I cant escape from thoughts that happened years ago. These thoughts cripple me,i just need reassuring that everything is going to be alright. I cant leave the past behind me, my mind is making things up and making me feel worser and worser

Ah, the past. It's like my brain wants to rewrite it in the most negative terms possible. Can I be the second brain transplant patient? Ooo! Pick me!

I have sexual intrusive thoughts to. I hate them because it is not how I feel. I hate myself for having them, but they have goten fewer since being in this community. It is nice knowing you are not alone.

I've got this little celluclay sculpture on my fridge of a brain, with the words scratched into it (in red): "Help! I'm trapped in this brain!" It helps to have a sense of humor and remind myself, everyone's pretty much in the same boat--we're all trapped in these marvelous, baffling clumps of "gray matter"--if we didn't have words we'd all be lost alone in there.

I know how you feel. Just when I thought I was puttin it behind me, it starts happening again, and makes me question everything and re evaluate all of my experiences. I am with you guys on the brain transplant..lol.

I can't shake one obsession until I have created another one. Or one has struck me as interesting. I guess if they were boring, we wouldn't be staring at them all friggin day.

The thing with me and sexual thoughts is that it also goes against my religious beliefs. I feel so awful in having these thoughts and I think that God is going to punish me for having them.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
