Hi again. I should have added that what causes a great deal of anxiety and panic is the fear of someone noticing or picking up on this problem I have. When that happens, I feel so ashamed and humiliated! I just want to get out of the situation when I notice that the "word association" problem is occurring in my mind, even if the other person doesn't notice it.

If anyone ever reads this and can relate somehow, please respond to this thread. Even if you just have an OCD problem with words in some way (nonsexual). It would make me feel less alone. Thanks!!!!
