      ​Accept Yahawashi/Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. You will be given eternal life and be saved. (Luke 21:11, Matthew 24:7, Revelation 18:23) WFS! He can change your life there is a hope, he changed mine and he can change your life too for the better. Much love sincerely to you all. May you be blessed, and peace be with you.

    After 13 years of counseling, I was *just* diagnosed with OCD. I have ADHD, PTSD, and was always told that I had generalized anxiety and major depressive disorder, but the medication and counseling I received never worked. I recently found a new counselor after I was in crisis and they mentioned I may have OCD. After talking further it is pretty clear. So many of these things have been ongoing since I was 3 years old, but because I didn't start counseling until I was 18, and then after 13 years of consistent counseling, I've finally found someone who was able to see the pattern and figure out why other treatments weren't working! I'm so grateful for them. And I'm so grateful I found your channel! I'm just a few videos in, but I'm very happy to have come across you. Thank you for all you do! 😊

    I feel a lot of self criticism comes from our parents/family. They too have often been raised by critical parents, so they behave like that too.

      Thank you so much for reaching out and sharing your experience with me. I am glad that I was able to provide some comfort and distraction during your lunchtime. It takes a lot of courage to acknowledge and confront our self-critical thoughts, and I am proud of you for taking that step.

    Unfortunately, my PTSD has given me memory loss. I specifically forget a lot of the good things that I've done or that have happened to me, so if I were to try to think about my past to prove that I'm good enough and not just doing self criticism, I'd be proven to be not good enough by my brain. So I won't be trying that, but I will try being more compassionate with myself

    I have ocd with my personal items. I’m neat and need things leveled and straightened. But my office workers find humor in messing with my desk , flipping things upside down and making my monitors crooked, I have three! They know it angers me but they find humor in it. I’ve been friendly about telling them I hate it when they do that but they continue. I’m starting to feel anger and my patience have gone thin. How do I explain to them this affects me more than they know. Can you post a video on this?
