How to stop obsessive yawning
Do you A. Just let yourself keep yawning and learn to not care B. Try to stop or suppress the yawning Trigger warning only because I don’t want all the Somatics to start yawning

A. I recently had a situation where I couldn't finish sneezes (unrelated to OCD). Using my OCD training, I just accepted that I may or may not sneeze. In this case, it didn't take long to correct itself.
@Ben84 😮 I lost my sneezes too. It happened a couple months ago. I could get to the inhale/about to sneeze part, but then my mind would jump in and not let me actually sneeze. That’s how mine corrected itself too, same as you. I just said Oh well, I guess I’ll never sneeze again. And then I got the sneezes back. I actually do think it has something to do with OCD. It felt like yet another OCD game. The mind is very powerful. Thanks Ben
I didn’t realize this was related to my ocd that’s crazy NO ONE has understood the yawning thing I won’t be able to yawn for weeks at a time. Drives me nuts !
What's a piece of advice you give when someone has constantly intrusive thoughts and ruminations that won't stop? Interested to see what you tell others.....more on this when I see some replies!!!
Does anyone know how to get rid of these thoughts? I have to manually breathe almost every second of everyday and it's getting tiresome and I can't stop thinking about no matter what the distractions are.
im getting so annoyed i cant stop thinking about time and death and everything how do i stay present and cope literally almost everything is triggering me its been weeks it feels like everything is moving so slow yet so fast and i can feel every second and i keep getting random memories of things i usually wouldn’t even remember they aren’t bad but its just another reminder of time passing and the only thing that helped just enough is xanax but i cant keep taking it every day cause i dont wanna get addicted i need like natures xanax or something how do i produce the same effect a xan gives without taking one for the love of god bro as soon as i think its getting better i start spiraling an hour later and wont be able to stop and its making me feel like i need to go to a psych hospital or something but then i feel like what if im not bad enough to go to one
