Stress Center Peer Support

I am new here. I am doing the program and it makes complete sense and is helping!

I have a question.....does anyone else have thoughts that life is not real? I know it sounds so crazy, but i what if all of the time, like. What if I am not my kids mom, or am I really here, or what if things are not as they seem. I am constanly scaring myself with these thoughts. These thoughts cause me a lot of anxiety and panic. I am also one of those people who has been diagnosed with OCD. When these thoughts come I cannot seem to get rid of them. I feel like i am on the outside of myself looking in and this is the scarriest feel of all.

any input would be helpful right now! I need a little reasurrance.

Go into the obsessive scary (OCD) threads and you will find all the answers you are looking for. Your obsessive thinking is not different from others. The content of your thoughts is not the problem. The problem is your reaction to them. Please go to the other threads. They will help you by showing you how to work on this. When you click on the "Obssessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)" it will bring up many past posts that you can click on and review.
