I'm sure im not alone here but im a self diagosts over thinker. somone told me that its a form of OCD so thats why im posting a message. i wondering if any has any good ways that they've found to get those obsessive thoughts out of the mind and make them go away. my main problem comes to realtionships. when im in a dating realtionship with a girl, im on edge for most of the time. i usally end up over thinking my self to death and they dont last long. my main problem or my most stress comes from when i think im not being liked or choses by the girl. like if theres another guy involved or something like that. also it KILLS me when i dont feel like im in control of the realtionship. recently i just put my self in an extremely awakard position on purpose. its my new technique to flood my fears out. this girl has a boyfriend and going out with me. its killing me that she hasn't dumped him yet, and i cant help but think its becasue she doenst like me enough yet. something i did to not make her like me 100%. so now that im all out there with my problem, i wonder if any one has anything similar like this problem and how they deal with it. let me know

The main thing they say to do is not rum from the thoughts let them come and go don't analize!!!! They even say make yourself think the thoughts certain times of the day and write them down also!! Good luck to you!!!

I also suffer with OCD, and this was a major issue at the onset of my first anxiety attack. I was so afraid of it, that I allowed it to control me. One thing that was suggested to me by a professional was to put a rubber band on my wrist and pop it against my wrist each time that I started ruminating. also i have learned to somehow not let it engulf me. I'm beginning to swim with the flow, not against it. Remember what happens to salmon when they swim up stream!
also, could someone tell me how to enter into the system and ask a question. This is my first time. Thanks cougar
