In my dream I was attacked, but I shred that belief to pieces, I was stronger and less fearful. noticed a large reduction in my checking rituals almost to normal level!!!! I feel as if I have had a good long over due,emotional clear out, like getting rid of unwanted old clothes that no longer fit me anymore and not fit for anyone else, I dumped them into to rubbish bin!!!!! <img src="http://www.ocdaction.org.uk/forums/bb-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_biggrin.gif" title=":D" class="bb_smilies" /> I think I shall treat myself to that cream cake.
