What should I do?!


Question:

What should I do?

I have OCD (obsession compulsive disorder), and I visit a counselor every other week and I'm going to see a pyschiatrist in September. Anyway, I think that it's getting out of control and I cannot control the thoughts that come into my mind. For example, I have to perform "rituals," otherwise I cannot concentrate on anything else, and it's an everyday, all day thing just about. I have extremely horrible thoughts. I will not discuss or go into a lot of detail of how horrible these websites are, but I have "vibes" that if I don't go on a certain website a certain number of times, something horrible is going to happen to my family members or friends. Or if I don't touch something seventeen times, something bad is going to happen. I know it's irrational thinking, but I can't help but think it. I've tried ignoring all these thoughts, but I eventually think of them again. Does anyone have any suggestions or advice? It would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.


Answers:

Perhaps you can move your psychiatrist appointment up sooner. If you explain how you are currently feeling, they should be flexible. You can also ask your therapist if he/she can contact the psychiatrists office to give them a heads up.

Good luck and take care of you!
