Everybody have intrusive and negative thoughts but the difference between anxious people and other people is that anxious people believe everything their mind tells them. That's what I used to do until I discovered CBT

Contamination is something im struggling with I'm working on it

[gemimarigby]

I’ve been having these issues for decades to little relief. I’m trying everything and still haven’t been able to get a handle on it. It is torture . Esp after Covid my mind is in constant rumination and with comorbid nervous system dysregulation. I can barely focus, it’s hell and getting a good job let alone an ERP therapist that takes my insurance or is affordable is next to impossible.

How long can people be fully recovered after the CBT? Is it a temporary relief or permanent after we learn and practice?

[unityofwhidbey]

I am a compulsive thinker, and "thinking" makes my neck tighten and won't relax. I've become obsessed with this. Is there a way to stop it?
