Still have them

[[Si...]]

Hi,

 

I'm still having  intrusive thoughts. I keep comparing my life with other people's lifes and then I'm never satisfied (I'm not talking about material things).

Is this a common symptom?

Please help!

Hi Simone.

I know exactly what you mean.  I try not to compare my life to others but it always comes back and takes over.

When I'm in a wave it's worse.  I'd say this is a very common thing for all of us going through withdrawl.

Let's pray when we are through we can be happy with our inner selves and not worry about what others are doing.

 

Stay strong

Tallow Love

Just yesterday I was thinking that this is my absolutely worse symptom now, completely neurotically comparing my life to other people's lives! I can't stop. I think this is heavy on the OCD side of things.

If i have not intrusives, i m healed. This is my last symptom. Its better but it stills.

 

My thoughts are intrusives about my brain, about life and some ruminations

Thanks all for responding!

 

Because I'm nearly 17 months out I often think that's just me. The thoughts are so real you know.

I still have days I think there is literally no future for me. It's like my brain let me think I have just 1 or 2 years ahead of me. For example, I want to buy me a new notebook but at the same time I think: why should I? My life will be over in about 2 years. And after this thought the rational me takes over and says: what the hell am I thinking?

 

The intrusives is my most debilitating symptom! I still have a bit of anxiety and a benzo belly.

The rest of my symptoms is gone my sleep is even very  good
