when we are'nt bothered by our thoughts then thinking about them ourselves can really , really bother us ..... right?????? Your experiences about that?

I have a problem with thinking about my thinking-that is my obsession. I am always aware of what I am thinking and what I am doing. Is that OCD or something else???

hey i was typing my modified user id today , and felt really strange giving a space in between .. never did that , anywherE! .. ahhhhh umm anywayz
WELL! .. thats exactly whats up with me , i'am totally aware of what i'am thinking and have few thinking strategies & all that! .. this was kinda hell severe for a month or two but now after all that it has lowered A LOT with my stress & now i really don't care much about those strategies or anything .. i just ignore !
and BTW .. yes .. the thing you keep on doing is OCD! , if you do any compulsive behaviors about it .. and try to keep your focus on outside world as much as you can , this may help you a lot! .. thinking makes it a lot worse , the more we think the more it gets complicated so its better to just let go of your thoughts and continue with your life.. no matter how much BAD you feel coz of those thoughts!

Tiff,
I do the same thing! I'll think to myself...why am i thinking so much about everything? I'm so wierd, everyone else just does things without thinking so much. I try to not think about it, but it just comes back! Sorry if that made no sense!

everything seems paranormal to me.. like i was playing a game on my pc and i myself saw that a skill level went unlocked! , but then after some time i came to know that , that skill level is "ALWAYS" unlocked! .. then what the hack did i saw being unlock? .. this seems really paranormal to me .. i can quit thinking things but this gives me a wierd feel that i'am ignoring such a thing .. i mean .. how can i avoid such a 'possibly big' thing!
same , sorry if it did'nt make any sense here!! .. OCD plays mind games!

This is my first post in the forum.
I suffer from OCD / Anxiety. 5 months ago I was just walking through the living room just doing my thing, when out of the blue like someone hit me in the head with a book- I had my first panic/anxiety attack. Well with that, the OCD went into overdrive. I also OVER think everything. I even dought what I know is true. It is like there is something in my head that yells *WHAT IF* then I have to rethink it- over think it till there is dought. Then I get sad- (depression) cause I feel I cant control my thoughts. I seen a Phys. on this and did hypnosis therapy and am on 15mg a day of Wellbutrin. But it doesnt seem to stop the over thinking of things to the point of doughting myself. Is there hope? :confused:

just stop caring about stuff so much ... thats the only way to completly escape from it .. i started obsessing about few things when Stevo replied me that our intelligence works against us when we have OCD ........ yet i don't think , even if i 'Know' i'am doing the biggest mistake of my life .. yet i've posted a msg for stevo to reply me back!! , something .. yet i won't be caring about anything .. even after that!!
This may sound overly stupidly complexed! .. but thats my mind game!

I constantly ask what is wrong with me.. I have a great life-great husband, nice home, good family. If only I didn't have this horrible anxiety. It just doesn't seem fair!

I don't know what happened or why but we will get our lives back. Everyday is a struggle but I know that eventually we will get through this!
