WAR, I know about rubbing the tongue on teeth and also the worry and guilt! You can overcome this! First, you mentioned 'sickness', I hope you are not referring to the anxiety/ocd as a sickness. Please understand that it is an disorder which we can bring that disorder into 'order'. We are NOT SICK, we are over-thinkers, We tend to think too deeply. Guess what? we can learn to quit all that over and over again thinking. It becomes a vicious unending circle UNTIL WE decide to break that circle! Get a spiral notebook to write all the negative and obsessive stuff, then think about all we obsess about and write several pages if you need to. Some folks like to keep this list for a few days to look back over it, then destroy those pages.I tore out the pages then put them through a shredder! When I put them through the shredder I said to them ( and myself) that I was FINISHED with their nonsense and I was choosing level-headed thoughts, I was going to run my life and NOT THEM run my life!That was fun and fulfilling and it realiy does something for us, even if w have to do it a few times.
Get another spiral and start a Victory logbook. Every time you cut-off the deep or bad thoughts, write it in the logbook.
We are NOT beyond repair! We can indeed have a much better life!
Remember, decide who is in control of your life, The bad thoughts or you.
Hey I thought there was no hope for me, but man was I ever wrong! Today, I live a much Happier life without thoughts pestering me.
If I can do it, so can you!
private message me if you want to talk further.
