Can you see your doctor to recommend a good CBT pratitioner. When I get relaspses I tend to leave it for months before I admit it as I see it as a failure on my part. If I sought help immediately (which I will in future) I would be able to catch it before it got totally out of hand. </p> <p>PM me if I can help in any way<br /> best wishes<br /> Anne </p> http://www.ocdaction.org.uk/forums/topic/terrible-week#post-39280 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 09:12:52 +0000 aishah 39280@http://www.ocdaction.org.uk/forums/ <p>Hi Rena,<br /> Sorry you are struggling at the moment. Yes stress does make the OCD worse. Well done for keeping your OCD under control, it is hard tho isn't it?<br /> Keep fighting and hopefully it will settle down again soon.<br /> Try not to worry about it coming back full force, this will only make matters worse. Take things one step at a time and try to be kind to yourself and things will improve.</p> <p>Bridget </p> http://www.ocdaction.org.uk/forums/topic/terrible-week#post-39279 Wed, 10 Mar 2010 06:07:43 +0000 rena 39279@http://www.ocdaction.org.uk/forums/ <p>Hi All, I have had just a terrible week, you know those times when one stressful thing after another happens? I am trying to keep my OCD under control, as I have been doing really well with it lately, but being under such stress I am worried it is coming back full force. Anyone else have the problem with stress making their OCD worse? </p>
