I just want to cry!!

I'm having about 10% okay during the evening, but the rest of the day fighting with the intrusive thoughts, it's trying to pull me back in. I have an exhibition coming up with a very unrealistic deadline, I'm very fortunate to be having an opening night, but it's this that's causing it, and I know this, but man it doesn't make it any easier, and I do feel bad because I'm seeking reassurance daily!!! I'm worrying about my health and everyone's around me!! It's draining me, and even writing this makes me feel sick, because I realise how up to 90 I am. I'll get up and carry on regardless, but for some reason I feel the need to share how bad it is!!! Only you guys understand the stress of what we go through, I feel I need to work twice as hard to do something, yes that most folk would be stressed over, but not this much stress. I can't eat properly, tummy cramps, skin has broken out in rashes....... I just wanted to share this with the group.

I blooming hate intrusive thoughts. It's not going to get me, I'm having this exhibition.

That's great, that you've got an exhibition, and I hope it goes well. Having OCD does put extra pressure on you, but anyone with an exhibition to open is going to be having nerves! Preparing for something like that will always involve a bit of a mad rush getting things organized.

It should settle down once you've got it open and you can put your feet up for a bit! Thanks for sharing and good luck with it!

Thanks Sallyskins, I'm back to being calm, mornings are my hurdle!! It's just when panic sets in all my logic goes out the window. I'm actually really happy with regards to the exhibition, it's just my head!!! Thanks again for taking the time to give comforting words.
