OCD, BPD, Physical Disability, and Caregiver Hell
I don't know why I was born, or for what reason. If there is a reason it must be because I am evil. I am 49, for 30 years I've battled "Harm OCD", which is the fear/urge/obsession that I'm going to harm/kill someone. In this case it was always my parents. I've probably had Borderline Personality

ADAA Personal Story: Harm OCD Made Me a Pushover Parent
"My OCD tells me that I am a bad mom. Sometimes the self-doubt actually paralyzes me. Or, the self-doubt has me scrambling to do too much. I was hopelessly over my head when my first son was born and my OCD knew it. I will replay my children’s childhoods scanning for the unhealable mistakes that I potentially

Physical Activity and Anxiety
I noticed over the last several years that when I’m lying down and watching television my anxiety level is much less and my mind is more quiet than when I’m physically doing something. It’s as if movement worsens my anxiety and initiates the racing and obsessive thoughts; irritability increases as well

ADAA Blog: OCD Strategies—We Do Not Hang Out With Bullies
