Re: PostPartum Pure O OCD - Really need some words of encouragement
Hello,
I have been reading your posts and I would like to just say you are a very strong woman. What you are going through is really awful, and I understand it must be so very upsetting and scary for you. It's bad enough for me and I don't have children around me!
When that nurse and the other "professionals" said what they said they only made it worse and I can imagine just how downright awful you must have felt.
I can't help it but it just makes me so angry how they reacted. You were vulnerable and they should have been supportive. The worst thing is it makes you believe that actually you could be capable of doing something awful but you won't. The power intrusive thoughts hold over us is absolutely magnificent! It makes us doubt everything!
Please don't despair. And no if they thought you were a threat they would not have let you home!
Take care xxx
