Anxiety and ocd
I'd thought I had beaten this, came off my medication a while ago and now find myself back at square one.
My problems all started with problem neighbours and now I seem to obsess over what might happen. For example, weed is being used around my house and it triggers me. I know the stuff is basically Legal but it drives me nuts, leads to catastrophising thoughts that I just can't control.
Has anyone dealt with anything similar? I'm seem to be the only one and it feels ridiculous.
I can see that you are facing some tough challenges since stopping your medication. The actions of your neighbors, particularly their use of weed near your home, seem to be causing you a lot of distress. I understand how overwhelming this must be and how it can make you feel isolated. Have you thought about reaching out to a mental health professional for support and guidance during this difficult time?
It's important to remember that recognising and dealing with your concerns is a brave step towards healing and feeling better 🙏🏻
Hello, thank you for replying. Yes, I'm currently waiting to begin therapy which starts tomorrow and hoping it has a positive effect.
