I have acute OCD/BDD. I have suffered for eighteen years with these debilitating disorders, trying to kill myself throughout these years four times. Where I live only basic CBT is available ERP is unavailable. I am so ill I believe I am insane. I have zero quality of live, zero chance of ever getting better.
I'm sorry you are going through this. Did you have mild ADHD as a child? This often morphs into Pure O (thinking OCD) and often BDD in teenage or adult years (in my experience). Also, if this is the case, the repressed ADD often results in knowing what you need to do to change your life, but failing to take action upon it. (I mean this respectfully as my wife has ADHD and needs me to keep nudging her towards actions that she knows she desires to do. My video course will explain everything and demonstrate what you can do to help yourself if you want to. This is why I created the course, as there are very few people who truly understand OCD, and getting private help from specialists can be very costly. Plus CBT (and the way CBT teaches ERP) is not very effective for OCD especially pure O with sexual, harming or contamination-type thoughts. I have 5 videos on how and why to do effective ERP in my course Video 50 parts 1 to 5. Good luck whatever you choose to do. John www.patreon.com/theanxietyspecialist
I did go to the doctor, but I didn't take medications. All the doctor wanted to help me with was medication - that is how I learned about overcoming anxiety and OCD by changing myself.
John changed my life!
