Maybe you could ask him some more of the questions you wrote on here to get him to talk about it more if you want. Did you want him to help more, and talk about it more? I would have wanted that I think. |
It wasn't very helpful, no. I don't really think he got how the thoughts work either. He asked me if I wanted to die or if I had any plans to kill myself and I said no, but what he didn't ask was how much I think about it etc. Because he didn't ask I didn't tell him that I sort of obsess about it and that I reckon it might be my OCD acting up. For the past 1,5 days I've been obsessing over the fact that I could die today or any other day if I wanted to. I could take all the medication that's in my room right now and overdose and die. I don't want to do it but I keep worrying about getting impulsive:
"what if I get really impulsive and do something stupid even though I don't want to?" Things like that. Then I obsess about the fact that I'm obsessing about it. Vicious circle.
I might tell him about the all obsessing when I see him next time. That's not until Friday afternoon though.

I'm not on any medication. I've been prescribed Venlafaxine/Effexor but I don't dare to try it. It's here in my room and it's been here for a month but I haven't touched it.
