Health OCD out of control!

[Rush123]

Trying to function for myself and family. This past year has been a nightmare I have crippling health ocd and was hospitalized 4 times for different medical conditions so my fear/ocd of having health issues has come true and right when I started to Address a few of them Covid happens and two of my conditions puts me in the high risk group. To make matters worse a relative died a month into quarantine. So now I’m really spinning out of control. I’m trying to get in shape to address my one health issue to decrease my chances of having serious complications if I do get it! Please help.

Wow! That is extremely difficult. I think if you use precautions, use a mask, don't go in crowds you will be ok. There should be a vaccine available within 6 months or less. But until then, it will not be easy. All the best to you.

Thank you JCPrague. I am fortunate in the sense that I can work from home until the new year. Which I am very grateful for. I know people have to go into work now or never stopped or worst yet lost their job. So I continually hope their situation gets better. I try to think like you said their working on over 150 vaccines and over 1500 therapeutics which doesn’t stop you from getting Covid but lessen the various effects of worsening the Covid.
