I went inpatient for my mental health to get the help I need and I'm so glad I did because I feel so much better!

      @TVJunkie hey I have dealt with intrusive thoughts and at a point felt like I'd need to go impatient, but realized through some research and therapy that that in itself is a fear thought which just turns the cycle on again. Are you in therapy for intrusive thoughts? Being able to find a therapist that specializes in it helps a lot, because then you're able to break that stigma of feeling ashamed of the thoughts.

      Iā€™m afraid if I am totally honest with my doctor about my intrusive thoughts that I will have to go inpatient and I donā€™t know what that looks like. Can you explain what about it made it so successful for you? I did an outpatient group program and felt great when it was done but that was a year ago and now things are worse than ever.

          @smilebig98 Thank you, I have had trouble finding a good fit with a therapist. I know I need one but like everything else in my life that I need to do, I have zero motivation at this point. I did not know I could see someone who specialized in it. Thank you!
