<p<Hi Sani! Sorry I've not written for so
long - my OCD has been driving me mad and sometimes I
find I'm better ignoring it or distracting myself with
other things instead of focusing on it.<br>My main bug
is washing/wiping my mouth after being to the toilet
- similar to washing hands except I don't (to my
knowledge) have the contamination worry to go with it - it
seems to be taking longer and longer to get that
'complete' feeling so that I can stop. Other OCD'ers will
know what I mean. Glad you enjoyed your holiday -
sounded like you needed it. Hopefully your slight
regression will just be temporary - we're only human and I
feel it's important that part of the treatment is to
be able to cope when things seem hopeless and we
feel we're getting nowhere or it just gets too
much.<br>Have just finished the book "Howard Hughes - The
UnTold Story" which delves deeper into his OCD -
fascinating stuff - would recommend it.<br>Take care,<br>Marg
