The Beat OCD Blog. Overcoming OCD One Exposure at a Time. Sunday, February 22, 2015. I was out on a walk the other day, and I decided that I should stop everything (not literally! Do I just give up on ever enjoying the rest of my life? I sure hope not. My new job is going really well. The other day I realized I was looking forward to work on Tuesday. I cannot remember the last time that was true. So it's pretty exciting. I can even imagine finding an additional "super part time" job on to...I want to sel...

The Beat OCD Blog. Overcoming OCD One Exposure at a Time. Monday, June 9, 2014. Working on some tricky stuff. Well, I remain in the "final stages" of getting the house ready. I guess it's a long final stage, ha! I have talked to several real estate agents now, so I'm moving along. The house is mostly empty, but I still need to clean up the garden, and clean clean clean the house itself. That includes 14 windows on the main floor, each of which has a storm window. Hooray!

The Beat OCD Blog: Book Review: Daring to Challenge OCD by Joan Davidson

The Beat OCD Blog. Overcoming OCD One Exposure at a Time. Saturday, March 14, 2015. Book Review: Daring to Challenge OCD by Joan Davidson. Last summer, New Harbinger Publications sent me a copy of Daring to Challenge OCD. What if something bad does. I really like a number of things about this book:. It has three "real" examples of people who went through ERP. The book follows all three throughout. I really appreciate when authors do this, as it seems more relatable/doable to me that way. I'm Ann, a 43 ye...

Well, actually I'm at the start of moving, but my place is in total disarray, so it sure feels like I'm in the middle. I'm pretty excited about my new home, but not as excited about the process.

The Beat OCD Blog. Overcoming OCD One Exposure at a Time. Friday, May 30, 2014. I've been a very infrequent blogger this spring. I'm going to try to get back to it more regularly. Things in my life are BUSY. I moved to a rental duplex a month ago, and I'm in the final stages of getting my house ready to sell. I'm really enjoying the new place a lot. It's a good location, great space, and I still have a yard for gardening, but I don't have to mow the lawn! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Welcome to my blog!

The Beat OCD Blog. Overcoming OCD One Exposure at a Time. Thursday, November 13, 2014. Feeling Better After Feeling Worse. One thing that's really surprised me about my retirement, is that my depression has ramped up. Another one of those surprises that really shouldn't be. One, my depression always hits in the fall, and two, now I just have more time to sit around and think sad thoughts. So there it is. Tuesday, November 11, 2014. Anxiety Up Close and Personal. Wednesday, November 5, 2014. I did leave m...

The Beat OCD Blog. Overcoming OCD One Exposure at a Time. Saturday, May 30, 2015. Day 2 on Lorazepam. Well, I woke up yet again with my "feeling of doom." I took a full 1 mg of the lorazepam. The pharmacist said it starts to work in about 15 minutes, but I don't seem to notice much for an hour. At this point, I just feel sleepy. I probably shouldn't drive on this dose, although on 0.5 mg, I felt sharp and normal. Friday, May 29, 2015. Thursday, May 21, 2015. I'm on day three, so it's unlikely that there'...

The Beat OCD Blog. Overcoming OCD One Exposure at a Time. Saturday, January 24, 2015. Odds and Ends for January. The other day I was at my sister's house, and my brother-in-law, who works in an emergency room, came home from work. "You would not believe how much flu is out there right now! He exclaimed. Thanks for the info! Sunday, January 11, 2015. Moving in the Right Direction. One the positive side, I have a job interview tomorrow. Woo! I spent more time out of my house this week than I have in ages, ...

The Beat OCD Blog: Still Moving
http://beatocd.blogspot.com/2015/04/still-moving.html
The Beat OCD Blog. Overcoming OCD One Exposure at a Time. Saturday, April 11, 2015. Major life changes certainly bring out my anxiety. I'm hanging in there, and should be pretty much done by a week or so from now. But it's not easy. I had finally started working on some mindfulness and meditation, but the change in schedule has sort of thrown it all out the window. I do realize that's a choice- if I were really dedicated to this process, I'd make it a higher priority. April 12, 2015 at 6:03 PM. 71º and S...
