Hi! Yes I do. I haven't started therapy yet but one thing you need to remember is: anxiety is the problem. It is the glue that keeps your obsessions from coming back. Fear is the problem. So face your fears and take a long, deep breath each time you feel yourself focusing on your body too much. Helped a lot for me.

I do, due to healthy anxiety currently. Im considering therapy! Looking up symptoms and trying to figure out whats going on with my body just makes a lot worse so I am working on not doing that! But, I will say watching youtube videos of people talking about sendorimotor OCD and how to deal with it actually calms me.

@AbbyE How does zoloft make you feel? I was given 25mg of it by the doctor but I havent taken it yet because my pharmacy told me it would take about 4 weeks to work, and I feel that I need relief now so it seems kind of pointless. Ive never taken anxiety medication before so Im kind of nervous about it and afraid of dependency. How long did it take for you to feel some relief from taking it?
