anxiety and depression

[OCDneedshelp]

Okay I’m having a terrible time right now. I have been laid up with Covid for the last few days and my ocd is running rampant. It has me convinced that I am dying of skin cancer. I know that this could be true or it could be false, but my mind is running away with me that I have an undiagnosed skin cancer that has spread and that I am looking at my last Christmas with my family. I know how to try and overcome this but it’s very very hard right now especially as I am quarantining away from family as we have family members coming to visit. I know that reassurance doesn’t really help but holy Toledo I’m so freaked out right now.

I am so sorry OCDneedshelp! That is a tremendous amount of stuff to be thinking about and dealing with emotionally. That would put so much pressure on you for the now. I don't know if a telehealth appointment would be possible right now? Maybe that is one action that could be taken that might help a bit. I wish you peace, hope, and strength ☮️

I am so sorry you're feeling bad, and that you have COVID. Hope you feel better soon

I am laid up recovering from a surgery and my depression has plummeted. Illness and injury are horrible for our mental health, especially when we are already struggling. You are not alone.
