hi - I have a lot of the same issues as you and my therapist also said I catastrophise things. I always go to the worst case scenario in my head and it’s causing me severe anxiety. I’m started therapy about 5 weeks ago and started seeing a psychiatrist last week. I desperately want to feel better. I know none of this helps you but you are not alone.

I relate a lot to what you said and wonder how you are doing now? Any better?

[Cjmac1960]

yup, thats one of the CBT therapy don’ts—catastrophizing

You might check out Matthew Codde at RestoreMinds.com he had severe OCD and healed himself and became a therapist to help others overcome it. He also has good youtube videos and an affordable course. If my OCD was more severe I would consider working with him and taking his course.

Hi there! This is my second reply to a comment that I’ve read. Although I know that your comment was a little while ago, I was wondering if the ‘event’ had now happened, and also wanted to ask… how are you doing??
