Please help me before I go insane!?!


Question: Please help me before I go insane!?
Well I'm only in year 8, and when I was in grade 6, I moved houses.
When i moved into my new house I was a bit stressed and scared but I got over it.
About half way through grade 6 to year 7 I started doing really weird things like just before bed,
I'd have to close my bathroom door about 3 times, go back inside, walk out and close it another few times, otherwise I had a really weird nausea feeling in my stomach. Once I'd close the door, I have to go to my bedroom door and make sure it's all the way shut, and keep touching the door handle to make sure the door was all the wake back. Then I have to go to my mirror doors and make sure there all straight and touching the ends of the walls. And still then, I'd have that feeling in my stomach until I did it. Then I could finally lie down. But whilst in bed, I keep having to look up from my bed to make sure nothing is at the end of my bed on the carpet. I know it sounds stupid and it is, but otherwise I feel like something bad will happen even thought I know it won't. And until i do it, the nausea doesn't go away. I have to keep looking up from my bed time to time, and I try to distract myself by going on my iPod or on Facebook, but as soon as I get off it and try to go to bed it happens again, until I finally fall asleep. Some days it's not so bad, but some days it gets to a point where I barely get to sleep, and have only a few hours of sleep which makes me lack in school work, and I'm always tired. Sometimes it gets me depressed, not badly but I get a lot of anger, and sometimes take it out on people. Recently in a magazine, I saw a story of a girl with severe OCD, and when they were talking about the symptoms, it kinda struck me and in a way I resembled to it. Not so severely but some of the things were the same. After reading that I've been getting really anxious, and the nausea comes back more then usual. I've been going through sites that say you should see a counsellour, so I was thinking I should go talk to my school counsellour but I'm scared she'll talk to my parents, and I don't want them to know. Do these sound like symptoms of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder? Should I talk to my school counsellour or just get over it?
Please help me, I feel like I'm about to go insane! :'(

Answers:

I do the same thing. I am much older than you and have my own house. I have a two story home and the bedrooms are on the second story. I sleep a lot on the couch watching tv to avoid the feeling of having to go sleep alone in my bedroom and be uncertain about whether someone is coming to get me. I know how crazy my own thinking is. The door is clearly locked and I have checked it, but still the darkness still represents fear for me of the unknown. I do all of the same things. I will go on facebook on my phone to keep me comfort until I finally fall asleep.
Please, please talk to a counselor about your fears and perhaps they can refer you to a doctor who will be able to prescribe medicine and counseling for this.
I am now 33 years old and I believe my bi-polar and my staying up at night and getting no sleep developed partially because of this.Please Please this isn't something to be scared about, but it isn't something to mess around with either. You can get this under control with help and perhaps
medicine.
Good luck to you!



Yes, you should definitely see a mental health professional. Your parents should probably know about this too, but if you're afraid to tell them, see your school counselor first.



Definitely talk to your school counselor. :)



Spiritual healing ,Seichim and Reiki healing
This is the application of spiritual energies to the effect of helping people on all levels of their being .
That includes
Your mental well being
Your emotional well being
Your physical well being
Your spiritual well being .
There are millions of these therapists around the world and people travel from far and wide to them .Billions of people have been helped from these therapies .

And like all therapists there are good and not so good and some specialise in certain conditions like the physical and some do the mental etc .It is important to find the therapist which suits your complaint .
But you must bear this in mind all healing comes under what is known as spiritual law =you will be healed to the extent that you have earnt .ie your karma –the reaping and sowing of all deeds done 0ften from past lives .And what you are doing for the service of others in this life .
Thus you may easily two people with the same complaint go for healing and only one of them gets healed .which is why voluntary work is vital for your healing.

You must Find good therapists in your area /and a good spiritualist church who often give their services for free as an offering to the divine .

All you do is usually sit down in a comfortable chair and relax and think good loving thoughts –the healer may or may not place their hands upon you .That depends on how they are working .

You can even put your names healing books where believe it or not healing is sent to you by thought and that can be very powerful as well.


Spiritual healing -- study the healing of harry edwards google search

Harry Edwards recalled the case of a young man who, accompanied by a lady, was brought to me for healing. He was in great pain and eaten-up with arthritis. As the healing proceeded, so his pains left him, and his joints began to loosen and become free. When I had finished treating him, it was a real delight to see how wonderfully glad he was to be able to use his legs, feet, arms and hands again... and then he told me: "When I came here, I was convinced no one could help me, and I came only to please my Aunt, who brought me."

You worked a miracle with his father when he was very ill 1983-84 when I wrote to you, but you will be pleased to know he is now working for the Council and lives a fairly normal life.

I's report is complete - he is 100% fit and will have no trouble in resuming his sporting activities -considering the first reports, this is a miracle. I do not know how I would have managed without your wonderful help.

You and the late Harry Edwards helped me so often and indeed I am still pressing on 18 years after I was expected to die from my last bout of cancer.

I wrote to ask for healing for my sister who was to undergo an operation for aneurysm in the aorta. Her operation was very successful. After 1 day in intensive care and 2 days in progressive care she was back in her own room and has done extremely well. She was allowed home after 7 days when she had been told to expect to be in hospital for 10 to 15 days. Everyone was amazed at her recovery and the surgeon told her she had been a perfect patient. I feel sure the absent healing and our prayers were to a great extent responsible for this wonderful recovery and I thank you most sincerely for your help.

I thought perhaps you would like to have a record of the people you have helped during the time I have been sending reports. M.L. -angina, complete recovery. D. L. -duodenal ulcer, complete healing. B.L. - Angina, complete recovery. P.D. - Leukaemia - apparent full recovery.

On behalf of my mother, daughter and myself may I thank you for the lovely day at your Sanctuary last Tuesday. My mother is so much better it is truly amazing. She can stretch out her arms and even raise them to her head and her walking is much stronger. My daughter was very impressed, too. 1141/6

Get the spiritual healing /reiki in place asap

And remember this

Voluntary work for you is a very good idea especially when u consider this principle

,.all our healing and happiness - yours and mine is linked right alongside our efforts and contribution to others.in direct proportion to the help we give others

ie your healing comes with helping others =so if people are doing very little in helping others ---they suffer more and longer...and if they are doing a lot they get well faster...

.so now you know what to do ,,and like a lot of us are already doing being of service.

Do not even dream of healing to come to you if you are doing wrongful acts , wrongful words , wrongful thoughts. All you are doing is making more of a burden for yourself

1 hour a day will make a difference to you and to others



You sound very smart for an 8th grader..let me just say laugh out loud..In my opinion yes, you do sound like you have OCD. I watched a special on this on Television and you seem to carry all the same traits as someone with OCD. Always safe to be checked out. AND BELIEVE ME. There is nothing wrong with your parents knowing about this. Regardless there your parents and they'll do there best to help you out on this.



You do have OCD i can tell just by reading and PAXIL is a good antidepressant for that. however let your DR decide. why not tell your parents as they should know why hide it? talk to your school counselor however, they wont order you medication and correct therapy to help make a dr appt. tell your mom a/s/a/p she should understand. Thanks And Star



A quiz for the presence of OCD is at http://www.ocdla.com/OCDtest.html Print it and show your counselor. OCD is an anxiety spectrum disorder, and the obsessions and compulsions are a way of avoiding, or coping with it, so; treat the underlying anxiety effectively, replacing your habit with the EFT, below, or (hopefully only temporarily) something more socially acceptable, like using worry beads, stress ball, electronic palm held game, or stringing beads, etc. It's important to regularly monitor, and deal with a negative internal monologue (self talk), or mental process, such as disturbing thoughts, images, impulses, or emotions, by the process of (a): recognising it, and (b): challenging it immediately. Technique For Re-Programming Negative Thoughts: When you notice something negative, such as: "I can't do this/ am never going to get over this!" or: "Why am I always so pathetic/useless/such a loser?" or even an image, emotion, or a memory; recognise that it is being generated from the negative part of your mind. Having identified and labelled it, visualise a large, red, flashing, "STOP!" sign, and/or possibly a stern faced person wagging an index finger at you in a negative manner, then say to yourself as forcefully as you can, even aloud in a big voice, if alone: "I know this tactic: GO AWAY FOR A WHILE !!!" You may want to use either: "ruse", "ploy", "game", or "trick". In the case of an image, visualise a large "STOP" sign, or your preferred version. Some people go so far as to keep a wide rubber band in their pocket, then put it around their wrist, when they catch themselves backsliding, stretch and release it, as a method of reprogramming their mind sooner, but I don't regard it as being strictly necessary.

Remember to remove it, afterwards, if you use this method. Practice a relaxation method, daily, and when needed, such as: (free) http://www.drcoxconsulting.com/managing-stress.html or http://altmedicine.about.com/cs/mindbody/a/Meditation.htm or http://www.wikihow.com/Meditate or the Yoga Nidra (easy mental exercises only) on page L at 8m.com, below. Tai Chi, regular yoga, or Qi Gong suits others better. Give the EFT a good tryout, to see if it helps you. Use the searchbar at http://www.mercola.com "EFT" & "EFT therapists" and/or see the 13 free videos at http://www.tapping.com - There is a version for use in public places, (if anyone asks, you can claim to have a headache, as you massage/lightly tap your temples, but you would then be restricted to subvocalising: saying it to yourself in your mind: "Even though I sometimes suffer from obsessions/compulsions, I deeply and completely accept myself." Herbal remedies, such as St. John's wort, are often effective, but the idea is (as with anxiolytic medication) to use them like water wings, or training wheels on a bicycle, providing initial support, and giving time for other treatments, such as therapy, and relaxation techniques, to take effect.

A free E course in CBT for anxiety is at: http://ecouch.anu.edu.au/welcome Books: Coping With OCD: Practical Strategies for Living Well With Obsessive-compulsive Disorder by Bruce M., Ph.D. Hyman and Troy Dufrene, and/or: Overcoming Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder: Client Manual: A Behavioral and Cognitive Protocol for the Treatment of OCD (Best Practices Series) by Gail Steketee, from your bookstore, or amazon.com Hypnosis is merely a heightened state of suggestibility, in which you are better able to communicate with your subconscious mind. 85% of people are suggestible, to some extent, so consider professional hypnotherapy, or more alternatives along such lines are at http://your-mental-health.8m.com/blank_25.html and view page F.



wow, a bright 8 yrs old one, do not worry, speak to your counsellor, actually speak to your parents first-there is a reason why God gave you parents, have trust in them. Let go of all fear & anxiety-nothing will go wrong, be strong, and become role model for others, you should be proud of yourself, also learn to be proud of your parents. God bless dear. I wish you were my son.
