[QUOTE="rebelson, post: 693506, member: 19966"] The rumination & obsessing is AWFUL. The past 2 days, especially. [COLOR=#00b300]I literally am tempted every minute, to '[I]just check once...his latest searches, then, you'll feel better'. [/I]Only problem with that is, if I do it 'once', there will be another 'just once' later tonight or in the morning. It won't end and I have enough foresight from this horrid O C D, to know that it won't end with just once. [/COLOR] It's cognitive behavioral therapy, I believe? Please tell me, SWOT-is this thought process (in green text) a good one? To NOT give in to it as it '[I]won't be [B]just once[/B]'[/I]? I have to stop it somewhere, right? He has loads of 'help', he just isn't utilizing it for the anxiety. I'm almost positive he feels it is a weakness to medicate for or admit to, anxiety. My father was that way too. Very stoic, stubborn, proud. To the degree that it was a detriment to self, his health. His cardio MD told him he needed a pacemaker as HR was on low side. He did not trust MD's to start with. He said "NO"! And never would go back to that MD. Oh dear! [/QUOTE]
