hey morgan,
well, I got a psychologist and an appointment with my pdoc on monday. I was always kind of against psychologists, for some dumb reason, but come to find out, it works! haha. I've been studying the tools to get rid of my ocd thoughts and hte bad thoughts that have been plaguing my mind. Within two days of studying, I would say I've seen a significant change in my mood, for the better. I still have anxious thoughts, so what I'm hoping is that I decrease or get rid of all the drugs that are treating me for "bipolar" which includes the lamictal, lithium, and seroquel. I want to ween off carefully off of those drugs while hopefully adding an SSRI to see how that works. I honestly feel that with the right drug to calm down my mind, and with these tools at hand, give me one month and i'll be good as new. the ocd thoughts still come, but thats because that thinking pattern has been habituated into by subconscious. The hardest part about changing your thought pattern is dissolving them from your subconscious. My psychdoc is helping me learn the tools to change my focus and dissolve the thoughts that have plagued my subconscious for a while now. the more you think a certain way, the stronger it gets. my advice to anyone suffering from anxiety or ocd, start by starting your day looking for things that you find your grateful for. consistantly do this throughout your day, and i guarantee at hte end of the day you'll feel better. make sure your focussed on this task. yes, thoughts will come through and that will always disturb your train of htought, but remain strong. that's the starting point...i'll add more as i learn.
thanks for checkin up morgan. what is your diagnosis btw? have you seen a psych doc?
