Obsessions have change

[dabro]

I always thought I was dead. I realized last night that I no longer worry about that but whether or not I'll ever be happy. I am unsure whether this falls in the catagory as OCD but I know that I have been dealing with unhappiness and trying to find things to make me happy then trying to prove that I'm dead. Very stange.

Hi Dabro, I understand completely about the phenomenon of one ocd becoming another.Perhaps it shows God will deliver us from any obsession.....Even if another one pops up. I too have had the obsession that i thought i was dead. .....and yes it did freak me out. ....but just like life, no ocd seems to stay the same. I had a "good" clip after the death obsession....i became convinced my 92 year old neighbor had put sugar in my gas tank! This one never seemed to end! What a strange month that was....nobody could tell me any different. Anyways, it sounds to me like God is working in your life....showing you can be healed from any obsession, and making you stronger to combat anything else thrown your way.god bless, friend. billyblueeyes

It definitely sounds like your OCD has changed over into something else. I cant tell you how many times my OCD has changed from one obsession to another, im pretty sure its in the hundreds lol. You just have to write it all off as OCD. It seems to me that you may think too hard into your obsessions which makes you get them mixed up with reality which all in all will make you obsess more. Praying for you

Ya I'm in total confusion. I don't worry about Judgment anymore. I just try to analyze whats causing my anxiety. It has changed but to what?. Oh well I guess I'll just have to go thru the anxiety.

Yup dabro, i HEAR ya; and on top of all the terror and anxiety, my doctor is discontinuing my klonopin. I suppose he's making the right call because i cannot control my intake of any drug, including benzos. So yes....i understand what it feels like to have to simply walk through the fear on faith alone.....and hope that you dont flip out in the local strip mall! god bless, friend. billyblueeyes
