OCD is sometimes known as “the doubting disease.” I hate it. So, so much.
I am so grateful to have endured cognitive-behavioral therapy and no longer bow at that ugly throne.

Doubts have always ruined my life. They have ruined the past and are destroying the present too. It’s good that therapy has helped
Nikky, I completely understand … they were the plague of my past. I hope that you can find real help! Have you tried CBT?
No, not yet. I had over 500 sessions of psychoanalysis in the last 6 years, but not CBT
I went to two different talk therapists for quite a while before I finally tried CBT. CBT broke down my obsessions and compulsions in only TWELVE WEEKS. I had battled with my doubts and intrusive thoughts for about 18 years by that time, and then in just twelve weeks, I found freedom through CBT.
I will certainly have to try it! In fact, the doctor said that i will need it, but that i have first to get out of the severe depression
Good, I am glad that is ahead for you. Nikky, I will remember you in my prayers tonight. I’m so sorry for all that you’re going through. Keep fighting.
Thank you Jackie ❤
Jackie, did you ever have a hard time knowing what you believed because of all the doubts?
Hi Katie. Yup! Story of my life. I’ve written a LOT about this at http://www.jackieleasommers.com/OCD. I hope it helps!!
