Found out he wasn't covered by insurance, so just started seeing my family doc instead, since this seemed to be just a med thing. I've never seen anyone for cognitive therapy, but I'm looking into hypnotherapy. I think it's my best bet right now. Meds aren't working, and I'm taking SO MANY that it's kind of scary.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06857292122475238818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-63804464872288383.post-53766963611650819822011-11-05T02:15:06.188-07:002011-11-05T02:15:06.188-07:00Jo, seems like anymore shrinks just prescribe meds...Jo, seems like anymore shrinks just prescribe meds and send you on your way; very little therapy involved. I thought I'd read in one of your posts that you were seeing a counselor. I was curious if you still are or have been to one in the past. <br />Meds are great to help with symptoms but they don't change the root of the symptoms, which I know you know. (thinking aloud) You have a good grasp on where it started and what your triggers are. I'm wondering if some cognitive behavior therapy and hypnotherapy would help to ease some of the anxiety.Just my thoughts that ran through my mind.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-63804464872288383.post-13495090299711104002011-11-04T17:58:03.990-07:002011-11-04T17:58:03.990-07:00Mommy Bags is a genius, I immediatley thought of h...Mommy Bags is a genius, I immediatley thought of hypnotherapy as well.The Lint Traphttp://theaslinttrap.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-63804464872288383.post-66618775661484461162011-11-02T12:57:12.516-07:002011-11-02T12:57:12.516-07:00EXACTLY!

Might as well just unwrap the candies without freezing them, and kind of without touching the candy part and dump them into a clean bag...dunno. Have to think this one through. Or, just keep washing after I give Maya a piece. Ugh.

All the inactive bumbum germs and other bacteria will stay on the wrappers (but they can re-activate after they reach room temp again, but you'll have properly disposed of them by that time).Bobbilynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07909402222561741761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-63804464872288383.post-71560480380603446082011-11-02T10:34:40.711-07:002011-11-02T10:34:40.711-07:00Thank you, Mommy2¢.

It bugs the shit out of me too; however, it does get to a point where I just say f*ck it and I guess that's the difference! Sorry to hear about your struggles; but you're right -- there are germs on EVERYTHING! Thankfully our bodies are designed to fight off most the dirty shit we ingest in a day. (fingernails are the worst!)<br /><br />btw... love what you did with your pills. You're funny even when you're trying to be serious! <br /><br />Best of luck!

I'm so sorry they're not working for your OCD. :( That really sucks.<br /><br />I guess you'll know when they're working because you won't necessarily forget that there are germs on things, but you just won't CARE about the germs on things. All of us who read your blog now know a lot more about germs (thanks, Jo!), but it just doesn't bother us like it bothers you. Sure we all take precaution against germs and the like, but if my kid wants to eat a Costco sample without washing his hands first, I just shrug and don't worry about it.<br /><br />I promise it will happen for you one day. *hugs*cheseahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09650563292752315370noreply@blogger.com
