Every day feels like exposure treatment to me. The thoughts are random, hurtful, and hard to express. Usually repugnant and sexual. I just wish I could get them out of my head. No compulsions yet, but I feel like I am constantly on edge because of my thoughts of possibly doing some of the acts. Any tips about to manage this?

      When I was first diagnosed over 20 years ago, my therapist made me write down all my crazy thoughts. It actually helped. Especially the ones with compulsions tied to them. I wrote them on huge index cards and it was kind of like I had it written down, so I didn't have to think about it anymore. It didn't completely make things better, but it helped.

      Yeah same with me, I feel like I have a lack of control over my life. My head is spinning constantly and I feel like I don’t know what’s what anymore.
