Thanks Noa and Everyone- yes I can make a pact with you all that I won't do anything until I feel better. I actually told my boyfriend last nigfht about the obsessions. He was so great about it- he actually tried to tickle them out of me. Imagine if tickle therapy worked? It was good to tell him because I've noticed that these thoughts gain power if I keep them to myself. As soon as I talk about them and label them as obsessive thinking they seem to lose some of their strength. He was so understanding about it, didn't judge me and wasn't even scared. He told me he knows that I love him no matter what my evil brain might be telling me right now.
I am also going to call my pdoc and see what we can do about meds.
Thank you all so much for your kind and gentle responses- I'm trying to be gentle on myself and it helps when others are gentle on you too. What beautiful people you all are. Peace, babs
