Re: intrusive obsessive thoughts....even in my sleep, do i need meds again???
Hello,
I completely understand what you mean! I suffer from ocd, depression and anxiety too. It's an atrocious illness and makes us shadows of our former selves. I am also exactly the same as you, I have a lot of different issues and I often feel i have too many issues for me to deal with. I have also decided to stop drinking large quantities, I will have a drink at home with my mum or if im out but I have now decided to not drink large quantities. Don't get me wrong I didn't go out every week and get really drunk but when I did go out I used to drink. Sometimes I drank an awful lot and wouldn't remember the night before. I've done some things I regret - nothing really bad but I feel as though I wasn't dignified.
Anyway I just want to let you know I understand. Perhaps you came off the meds too soon? I would go back to your doctor and speak to them, tell them if possible you'd liek to see another therapist as the former didn't feel she could help. I have always been lucky with therapists/counsellors as they have all been very good.
Take care xx
p.s don't worry about the long post, you should see mine!They are novels! x
