Question about distraction
Hi — I am in the grips of a very bad health ocd challenge. I am convinced I am dying so I can’t focus on anything happening in the future (bc I am convinced I will not be alive to experience these things). I am wondering if anyone has insight into what you do to distract yourself from these intrusive thoughts when they are this intense. As in, any tactics or strategies that have worked for you? Part of my challenge is I have a physical symptom that acts as a trigger so it is hard to escape. Thanks for your help.
