I wake up pray. Read something whether it's the Bible or something on my phone. Meditate on good thoughts along with breathing exercises. I feed my kids. Play with them for a little then take them to daycare. I have about 3 hours of free time before work and i usually do some push ups then shower. Play a little fort nite. Then head to work. Just try to keep your mind busy and stay around people you're comfortable around. Starting the day with positive thoughts and breathing is the best thing for me.

Maybe make a schedule for yourself! Write it out, the times and everything. Make time for meals, snacks, fun time, working on something, maybe school. Just everything that includes taking care of yourself. Maybe even just finding time to think about things you want to do

I get up, brush my teeth, shower, exercise, eat breakfast, then finish getting dressed and ready for the day, it helps me to have a place to be... so I go out somewhere, either stay with my parents at work (I know not everyone does that ?), or I go to Barnes and noble, I make sure to eat in between because I can’t think clearly if I’m not eating enough. Find a good book. Me personally, I hate reading. But I’m kind of making myself do it because it does good for my mind be used but also just to enjoy a story that I don’t have to overthink.

You could go to the mall or a pet shop and look at some pets, go to a park and read, look up different careers or jobs or college majors... take a class on khan academy to improve in any subject that interests you? Look up community events, like theatre shows, karaoke nights.

The premise behind managing your OCD is to become comfortable being uncomfortable. You’re not going to get rid of your anxiety, we had a disorder. But we can get use to it to the point where it’s just an annoyance in our life. But it takes time, patience, and commitment to getting better. You need to adopt good habits, talk to a therapist, maybe go on meds, you need to be open to options. Take it from me, I was fucking miserable two years ago, went through multiple meds and therapists until I found a system that worked. Now I’m rolling in all cylinders, close to graduating , interviewing for my dream job next week. It’s possible to control OCD, i still have symptoms, but after surviving the past 2 years it’s nothing I CNET handle. YOU CAN DO IT!

Hello everyone, I was wondering if anyone had some tips on morning anxiety/OCD. I have Harm OCD In particularly I’m scared I’m going to commit suicide and these thoughts fluster me in the morning. But after a while they calm down and I’m not as nervous about it and I don’t think I’m even going to hurt myself at all. It’s so crazy how it feels so real and then doesn’t. Please help me out with anything you guys may be doing to assist with this. Best, Fran
