Obsessive compulsive disorder question? |
I worry about whether something happened or not to the point that I convince myself it did & I'm having a hard time differentiating what's real & what's not. It's taking a toll on my family & relationships. Sometimes I want to pull out my hair!!! I can't stand the anxiety anymore. i've been to shrinks since i was 14yrs old been on every medicine under the sun, been hospitalized. nothing is working. it doesn't sound like you have OCD. If you have trouble differentiating reality from non-reality.... It could be schitzoaffective disorder or schizophrenia? I don't mean to worry you, but please see a psychiatrist [not a psychologist] to get diagnosed and for help. Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is classified as an anxiety disorder. Patients with OCD have persistent thoughts they cannot control (obsessions) and/or feel they must perform certain actions repeatedly (compulsions) in order to feel safe, to stop obsessive thoughts, or to be able to go about their daily business. When obsessions and compulsions interfere with someone鈥檚 ability to work or to live their life, it becomes identified as an illness. About 2.2 million adult Americans have OCD, according to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH). you don't have ocd..its anxiety or parinoia...i use to have ocd and those were not the symtoms panic attackes parniod difficukties . see different specialist . what may work for one may not work for another . it is easy to say stay patient , the cure next visit . you are to young . the cure next visit best of luck Give energy techniques a try before you abandon hope.
