Hey there, I am a member of these forums, a diagnosed OCD sufferer and a MSc student. I am currently studying for a masters in Human Evolution and Behaviour and am writing my thesis on OCD. As part of this I have created a short survey which asks sufferers (and non-sufferers) about their experiences of anxiety, their lifestyle and their accident proneness. I am hoping to explore an evolutionary model of anxiety disorders through this and collect some valuable data which could be used to better understand OCD and even to treat it. Here is a link to an anonymous survey I have created to study this: [no urls]?s...GYcaSoGA_3d_3d I'd be happy to discuss the theory, its significance and my findings in this topic as well -------- To mods/admins: I hope this is all right, if not then I apologise. :) |

| I suffer from OCPD. I do not seek help because this disorder separtes me from the majority making me unique. I choose to accept this as my way of life. We don't need "help". We are not injured. We are not suffering. | |

| Im pretty sure that I have OCD. Im always looking way too far into details of things, and I think constantly about everything from where my lifes going to what type of person I am. I feel like I have to know everything about something, so I can do it to perfection. The thing is once I think I know it I go over and over it obsessively just to make sure. Its very hard because I sufer from addiction to opiates also. When I take opiates it seems not to be as bad. The minute I get clean and go to meetings and stuff, I just overcomplicate evrything instead of keeping it simple. I was just on prozac and it did nothing. What can I do? | |

| How come? My shrink suggested I take it during my exam. This seems super dangerous to me, although I must say that I kind of like Ativan (have taken a couple of times). Do you mean because it's addictive? I have a very unaddictive personality, so am not really worried about that.. I mean if I handle certain unmentionable highly addictive illegal substances without becoming addicted, what's so bad about benzos? | |
