Jack Russell Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Hello to all. I have just joined, but have been using the site for around three years. I have suffered anxiety in various forms for over twenty years, primarily social anxiety, social avoidance, combined with mild ocd, then around four years ago my ocd became disabling, due to fears of contamination. A very common one I know. I have had two courses of cbt and taken various ssri medications, and diazapam. None of which had any great effect. I have made a slight recovery by myself that I will happily share with others facing similar fears. However still a long way to go. If anyone needs to talk, I'm happy to help the best I can. Btw, you may think it's ironic having a dogs name, when I have a fear of contamination, but I am a huge animal lover, and although ocd limits me, it will never stop me. ☺ Link to comment
