In reply to chronic obsessing, posted by jnld5 on May 31, 2006, at 10:50:20
I understand, I'm really bad about obsessing too. I have a tendency to repeat a snippet of a song in my head over and over until it drives me crazy! And of course any problem I have is analyzed over and over and over again.
OCD is a type of anxiety disorder. I don't know how you can tell where anxiety ends and OCD begins, but I wouldn't worry about the whole label thing if I were you. Do you have a therapist? I haven't really found medication to help any, I think therapy is probably more successful.
Feel free to vent anytime! Being a stay at home mom to 3 and 4 1/2 year old is definitely enough to make anyone stress! I love kids though. I wish I could actually make a living at daycare. Unfortunately its one of the lowest paid professions. And being a stay at home mom is like double duty! Hang in there.
-TP.S. I bookmarked those sites for later reading - thanks Dinah.
