- Does anyone else deal with this? I often wake up between 3:30 and 4:30. feeling wide awake and unable to get back to sleep. Today, I am up at 2, which is a new record for me. I generally go to bed around 10, so this is still not enough sleep for me....
- I am having a horrible time with OCD. The thoughts have taken over my life. Never before has it been this bad. I cannot eat and my weight has dropped pretty low, and I can't sleep anymore. I wake up so early in the morning, almost in a panic, and...
- I've had anxiety for many years, but never believed I was truly depressed until more recently (like the past couple years), but it seems to be getting worse. I feel so low right now, hence me seeking out support or advice. I do not know what's wrong...
- Anyone else have this sort of trouble? I generally wake up between 3-4 and am wide awake and cannot get back to sleep. I have always been an early riser, but this is ridiculous. I am ready to crash by 3PM which is not good. I have tried most...
- This morning, at church, I was sitting on the end of the pew. About halfway through mass, a man came and wanted to sit. I typically keep the end seat, but he insisted I move down so he could get on the end (he refused to get in the pew when I...
- It's probably silly I am posting this, but I am having a lot of anxiety over a situation and would love some advice.I'm in college and started volunteering at a children's hospital last semester. This was a big step for me because I have a lot of...
- I am in college and this semester, I found a mentor in one of my professors. He is so kind and I have been more open with him than any other professor (I am too scared to even approach most people). But this professor has shown so much positive...
- It seems my OCD has morphed into this new fear of doing harm to my loved ones (or anyone really). I know I shouldn't post this, as it's probably a form of reassurance seeking, which is one of my compulsions. But it's driving me insane with guilt...
- I am wondering if anyone can relate to this, so I decided to post. I'm in college and have had anxiety for several years, but over the past couple of years, feel like it's gotten worse. I am feeling more and more like I am just stupid. I have the...
- Yesterday, I got a text from my therapist (we have texted a few times in the past, for scheduling purposes) asking me if I happen to drive a gray car. I replied to her that no, my car is red, but I was curious why she was asking. She then explained...
- The other day, I was at a meeting of an organization I'm part of at my school, which is headed by one of my favorite psychology professors (Dr. W). Towards the end of the meeting, my classmates and I were planning to email someone to get some...
- I apologize if this seems silly, but I need to get this out. I was out walking this morning and where I live, in Florida, lizards are always darting across the sidewalk. I knew it would only be a matter of time before this happened, but I...
- I am looking for advice for the situation I am in right now. A boy I went to high school with has been messaging me on Facebook for the past year or so. He's a really nice person and everything, but we never talked much in high school because he was...
- I am new to this group, but not new to social anxiety. I am a 23 year old college student, and have had social anxiety for several years. What I am struggling with most, and what is most frustrating to me, is the feeling I get when I am around...
- I have heard that Inositol, which I guess is a B vitamin supplement, is supposed to be good for helping OCD, particularly the obsessive thoughts. I have read an article or two about research done comparing the effects of inositol vs SSRI...
