Homophobic OCD. Not in the sense that you would hate gay people but in the sense that you are afraid you may wake up one day and become gay. Hopefully you are getting therapy for your OCD by whoever diagnosed you. Therapy is key...just knowing doesn't do you any good because your brain is wired differently. You say up and your brain says down. You say white and your brain says black. You say not gay and your brain scream gay.
Ok this may be a stupid question but can somebody tell me what good talking to a psychologist is going to do? Is it going to make my past be all rainbows and sunshine? Is it going to make all the crap going on in my life disappear? Will just talking about all this depression and past and traumatic events make me want to live? I do not understand the point of seeing a psychologist, I am going because I promised I would but I really don't think it will do any good.
How is it that therapy is suppose to help you deal with why you used when all therapy does is make me want to use? I have been able to numb all my emotional feelings through opiates, even though my pills were used and prescribed for all my surgeries, it was my outlet, as sick as this sounds, hearing the words another surgery was like a free pass to opiates.

Taking the amount of thyroid hormone medicine needed to replace what your body’s thyroid is not making does not hurt your bones. *However, taking more thyroid hormone medicine than you need can cause bone loss. An excess of thyroid hormone is harmful to your bones.* This can be caused by an overactive thyroid, a condition called hyperthyroidism. It can also be caused by taking too much thyroid hormone medicine as a replacement for an underactive thyroid.
