I will be keeping as anonymous as possible, as I want help and to help. Had an account with a previous email address about 4 years ago.

Was diagnosed 5 years ago, but suffering symptoms as long as I can remember!

Been on Sertraline the five years, sadly having changed my lifestyle to help combat OCD, things have been going fine (for the most part), great of late. Sadly a family tragedy and a mistake at work, has knocked my coping skills.

Hey Cuddlygeek,

Sorry to hear that you are going through a rough patch :(

I don't know exactly what has gone wrong or what your 'themes' are, but when I have shaky time I try to remember to put things in perspective, look realistically at what's in your control & what's not. Don't allow OCD to make things seem worse than they are & if your coping skills have been knocked, then reavaluate them & go back to basics. The most important thing is not to allow you negative thoughts to overwhelm you & stay resistant to them.

Welcome (back, I guess! :original: )

Germs, illness, religious, sexual, hurting others, are unfortunately my themes.

Think I hit a good patch and now a deep pit.

1 bump, a big bump and it's back bad as before.

Similar thing happened to me, in that I had therapy a few years ago, thought I'd dealt with my OCD, finally came off my meds September'ish last year, & then was back on them in December & back in therapy :-/

But, I've learnt my past lessons (I hope!) I am being more thorougher this time & implementing positive changes! :original:
