hi every-one im new on this bit of the website, i usually post on the HA section.
basiclly i have always been a worrier, then a yr ago my life got turned upside down when my father died of a brain tumor secondary to lung cancer. in the months b4 his death he became very confused and forgetful and found it very hard to communicate. life got very stressfull after that as i gained care of my younger sis (i am also a young mother)
suddenly i started to get scared that i had a brain tumor, or something else wrong with my brain. i got diagnosed with ha and had councelling and cbt but the thought of having something wrong with my brain wont go away, its turned into an obession. all day, everyday its like theres a voice telling me there is some-thing wrong. if i make any mistake with anything i convince myself theres something wrong. i give myself such a hard time about every mistake i make. i play games such as suduko, or any other game that requires a lot of concentration just to make sure my brains working properly, i get no enjoyment out of the game, its just i have to do it. i constantly go over my day to make sure i havent made any mistakes. its taking over my life.
the thing that most made me think its ocd was back in november i read a mag article about a young girl who was abused. after reading it i began to panic and think that one day i could turn into a child abuser. i know i never would, i would rather die than hurt a child but my mind wouldent stop telling me i could turn into one. sorry 4 the rant, ive been 2 scared to talk to anyone, so i needed to offload. any advice is much appreaciated xxx
