So i'm all nervous/ anxious about that. I thought that my left-over ocd rituals, and occasional freak-outs were just the 'battle scars' of having ocd. I'm so much better than i was when my daughter was 2, that i figured i could just deal with the rest myself, or live with it. I don't know- can one be completely OCD free again? That's the big question.Karinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17182813079850508907noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2910527796780560606.post-28555079391672948082015-01-24T13:27:02.213-05:002015-01-24T13:27:02.213-05:00Glad to see you are posting again, Karin! Oh I tot...Glad to see you are posting again, Karin! Oh I totally understand about not cleaning things because of the difficulty in getting it cleaned just right. Ugh.<br /><br />I find it interesting that so many people list "anxiety" in their long list of illnesses they treat. Here's the thing. If they are capable of really treating anxiety, shouldn't they be capable of treating OCD? It IS an anxiety disorder. And if they're not using CBT/ERP to treat anxiety, then do they REALLY know how to treat anxiety? Anyway, I'm just thinking out loud. It just bothers me.<br /><br />I know how hard it is to seek help. And it's a pain in the neck, especially if you have trouble finding a properly trained therapist. Maybe you could look at it this way: You are doing this for your daughter. As you get well, you can help your daughter get well.<br /><br />Anyway, hang in there! I know you've worked really hard. It will pay off.71ยบ & Sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09981113989131619635noreply@blogger.com
