Has anyone ever woke up and your ocd be kicking big time? My doctor upped my zoloft dosage from 50 mg a day to 100 mg a day. It seems when I get one thing conquered, something triggers something else and the cycle starts all over again. I hate this.

O.C.D. is a continual intrusion in my life. Hang in there!

I wish you the Best!

Usually I wake up like that! It sucks because it sets a tone for the rest of the freaking day. Today, though, I woke up, and it was *amazing* because for a moment, my mind was clear! But once I noticed how clear my mind was, in came the OCD. The little f***er.

a poem I wrote some time ago:

Go to bed, OCD!


aha...
you are already awake
you fake!
why couldn't you stay in bed
suffocate yourself with that pillow instead
I don't want you to be a guest inside my brain
to leave all your thoughts making a huge stain
you have not been invited- so just go!
this is not your show!
I close my eyes- open them... you are still there
leave me be- you are only a burden to bear
go to bed, OCD!!!!
yes, you heard me!
I will not give in
to see you with that silly grin
go to bed!!!
wish you were dead!


It's such a struggle living with OCD all day long... but this line in the poem "
I will not give in" is the most important one... WE WILL NOT GIVE IN!

Thinking of you all...

Thanks for this!

I deal with OCD even in my dreams sometimes.
