hi all!!! im so glad you started this thread
i suffer panic attacks have done since i was about 14, i also have OCD not bad but its there and has got worse sine becoming a mum, my ocd is more like obsessive thoughts, i find it really hard to concentrate, just thinking something awful is going to happen because i done this or didnt do that this in turn makes me have panic attacks like a vicious circle.
i go through phases of it not really bothering me,to im just a nervous wreck 24/7
to all you other ladies xx
heyy hun xx how is ur ocd and panic attacks at the momment? have you seen anyone for them? and i know what u mean about finding it hard to concentrate! its sooo anoying!! xx hope you have a calm and stress free day today!! xx
they are pretty bad at the moment, espec the panic attacks i pretty much feel like im about to die for the majority of the day, and well my ocd ive just had a tantrum because someone at work put my bag on the floor...
my GP has just refered my to have a assesment for what type of therapy will suit me and im doing an online workshop too. xxx it sucks that you guys are going through this aswell but at the same time its so nice to know im not the only one who has to deal with these feelings
omg that sounds soo badd hun! at work did you propper react? how did the other person react to you? x and how does this online thing work is it free? and hope they find something that helps u!! xx
it is bad at the moment but hopefully it will pass soon and i will get a month or two of being 'normal' well as 'normal' as i get lol.
luckily i manged to control myself slightly, i just snapped and said dont put my bag on the floor and snatched it up, i just got a bit of a odd look, but im used to that...im worse with people i know as i dont care how crazy they think i am.
some of my little habbits-
i have to say out load that i have swithed something off eg hairdryer,iron ect
i then have to go back to check that i def switched off, and then once more for luck.
when i go shopping cleaning products can not be touching anything else
cant put bags down on the floor
cant pick things up if they are dirty eg stones,sticks if i do i wash my hands at least 3 times
when i make a cup of tea i have to fill the cup with boiling water and tip it out before i use the cup (even though i know its clean because i washed it up)
same if making a cold drink i have it rinse it 3 times before use........now im writing it down i see i have a thing about the number 3
the online thing is called mood gym, and yes its free
well done you with picking up someting dirty, i bet you were well proud of yourself xx
