Krystal,
You are not alone. About a year ago I was obsessed with EVERY single breath I took. I became so frustrated. And then it went away. I had to deal with what was really bothering me. It will pass. My advice is to go with it. Be loving to yourself. Say "It's ok to be aware of my breathing. It's not going to hurt me. It's not awful or terrible. It may be uncomfortable but not horrible." Give yourself full permission to obsess. The sooner you do that, the sooner it leaves. I hope this helps.
PURE OBSESSIONS
Hockey,
Good topic! I have obsessive scary thoughts. They scare me so much. . I have them about my mental state and physical state. It goes from mental than physical. For example: Mental- What if i kill myself? What if i go crazy and have to go to a mental hospital? What if I stab someone? Physical- What if I stop breathing? What if i cannot swallow and choke? What if i have cancer? etc .. .. Krystal, I had BIG issues with my breathing. My therapist really helped me with it and with my swallowing issues. He is helping me with the mental ones right now. Him and the program helps a lot. .
