Hello, It's good to meet you. Who is prescribing your medication? Is it not a psychiatrist? Also, can you please explain what "sectioning" means?

The struggle you're having sounds very difficult. Horrible, really. Somatic disorders are extremely real; in fact, I'm not at all sure that the separation between mind and body should exist.

I have had a mild OCD since I was a child, but not in the form of the contamination anxiety. I can certainly understand your fears, though.

I definitely have always had physical reactions to stress. Always, since I was a small child. Stress causes me to feel extreme fatigue, overheated and chills, migraine headaches, and now I have developed a miserable condition, eczema. The moment I feel the stress rise, certain patches of my skin become flaming red, mercilessly itches, burns and stings.


I have learned to spend a lot of time alone so I can carefully care for myself and prevent myself from becoming truly sick, such as throwing up or so exhausted I cannot drive.

You are not alone with your symptoms. I think it would be excellent to speak with a psychiatrist. Hopefully, you do not have to keep suffering with the mind-body issues.
