I have had 8 sessions took a couple for me to open up regarding the intrusive thoughts think was just my defences gauging if I can trust the therapist. Did you managed to discuss it all?

The other thing I like is that the work that we achieve is there to re fence on low days,

As previously stated well done start to get your life back wage a war on this horrible illness.

Ha, no not yet. I think new things will still be coming up for weeks!

i feel like i have so much to say. The sessions dont feel long enough lol. I feel like I've just started to settle somewhat and then its time to go :|

and how do you feel about your progress?

I feel happy with my own progress and acccept that it is not a small battle but a big war, and the harder you fight it the more OCD tries to trick you but I know now that i have some tools to take it on head on,

Keep fighting ynwa

I am trying various things to help but one thing is a definite treat of some kind if I feel I have been brave enough.

I am looking at therapy but it just makes things seem more real.

Hope you are making good progress.
