No, I am not pregnant.
I am having some issues with OCD that is suddenly flaring up that may be related to hormone changes from the pregnancy. Apparently it is common but I didn't know about it and so I have been hiding it from people.
Anyway, I would rather bring it here than have some random lurker find it and try to mock me.

Oh, Winged. I'm so sorry you're dealing with this. Now that you know, are you able to deal with it through therapy or meds? Obviously you don't have to answer if you don't want to.
I'm sending you big hugs.
The nerve!

Sorry you are dealing with this, Winged. I hope it gets better for you.
There was a regular poster over on MM that had the same issue and blogged about it, but I can't seem to remember who that was now.
Thanks everyone.
SB, I am just starting a DBT group next week that will hopefully help. I am going to talk today with my OB and will pursue meds if necessary but I am just wary of them with breastfeeding. I know they say there is no evidence of problems, but it just makes me nervous.
Really? hmmm, how should I title that "PAGING OTHER CRAZY MOMS"
ETS: Sorry, that sounded bitchy probably but I meant it with dry humor. I like to laugh through the pain.
It's fine. I laughed before I saw your edit.
I bet the therapy will do wonders. I can definitely understand being wary of the meds.
The nerve!

It was jenny1980, she used to be an AFBer actually. She seemed to tackle her issues relatively quickly. Page her, I bet she will have some advice and words of encouragement. Hang in there, winger!
I'm sorry Winger. I appreciate the fact that you're giving us first dibs at mocking you before some dirty lurker beats us to it!
Seriously, though, I hope you find a solution that works for you soon.

It's a good thing my circle of trust is as giant as my vagina. That only leaves a couple people out. - Cali
Fitty's right that it's Jenny1980. She's awesome.
I'm sorry you're having a rough go of things right now. If there's anything we can do to help you out, let us know!

Yes, you can. Don't step on cracks. It makes me uncomfortable.
Also, do you mind cutting your hair and calling me Sheila? My brain told me to tell you that.

Sorry Winger. It sucks that you have to deal with this when you have so many other things you'd rather be giving your energy to.
I'm sure it's just temporary-- between therapy and your hormones eventually chilling out, I'm sure you'll be able to squash that sucker without having to worry about meds.
Hugs.
Oh, dear. You're not going to go all crazycakes Blair on us, are you?
That was my attempt to be the crazy lurker who mocks you. But seriously, don't go all Blair, please?

It's good that you are aware and working to help yourself.
For less then ten cents a day, you can feed a hungry child.
Do you? Are you already feeling a bit of it?
So my ongoing negativity, paired with a hormonal free fall, no sleep, a gross body, the animals having no toys and the holidays make me foresee some kind of breakdown. I will be closely following your experience as you choose to share it.
