I have been diagnosed with Dysthymia and OCD earlier by a psychiatrist. I have been struggling with chronic procrastination for more than 2 years now and it has affected my professional and personal life a lot. I have tried Behavioural Therapy as well a while ago for depression. But things have not changed. There are a lot of factors affecting this including low self esteem, negative environment/pressure from family, lack of interest in daily life, etc. I have been stuck in this cycle of guilt and avoidance for more than 2 years now and it's taking a huge toll on me now. It's affecting my personal and financial goals as well as my professional performance.
OCD for hand wash treatment, she constantly has urges to wash hands every time which shows signs of ocd
I’ve had overthinking issues since childhood, but for the past 3 years it has become very severe and mainly focused on my relationship. I tend to interpret things in the worst possible way and keep doubting meanings (e.g., whether something said is really about me).
I overanalyze past chats and events and feel a constant urge to mentally check things, but never feel satisfied. It gets so intense that I lose control over my thoughts, can’t focus on anything, and feel nauseous most of the time.
Whenever a new doubt appears, my mind gets overwhelmed and I can’t think clearly. I also feel that if I wasn’t in a relationship, my mind would fixate on something else.
What should I do about this?
Hello doctor, I’ve been dealing with a constant self-awareness problem for a long time. I keep noticing my thoughts, body sensations, and especially my eye contact, which makes me uncomfortable in social situations.
This started around 4 years ago when I was in 11th class and went through a phase of depression. At that time, I had issues like sleeplessness, overthinking, and constantly analysing my thoughts.
I also had very high phone usage earlier (which I have now reduced), but I feel my attention is still stuck inward. My main problem right now is difficulty with natural eye contact and excessive self-awareness.
I would like guidance on how to manage this and feel normal again.
Iam a medical student itself,
I Don't how but I developed Anxiety from last few months after entering Medical College
