Hi and welcome to my messy mind! It took me 10 years to finally step up and talk about this. I still do not feel brave enough to do it but even if I help one person, it will worth it. My name is Kristina and I am have OCD with intrusive thoughts. Writing helps me relax, focus and keep my mind calmer. I really hope that my blog will be beneficial for others who struggle just like me. I do not have a medical degree so everything I am sharing is my personal experience and how I am dealing with it.

Less to think about
In the previous post, I shared with you about
our last steps to rent the apartment in which we no longer live. In this post,
I would like to focus your attention to (in my opinion) the importance to think
about less things at a time.
As a person who easily gets overwhelmed, also
very emotional, when having too much to think about I become nervous and want
to do everything right now, just to get my head clear.
Of course, it does not happen like that because
usually “the things” involve other people, schedules and so on. In addition,
rarely is it possible to do it alone or in a day. In such situations, writing
is the best friend I could ever have. Writing down tasks, thoughts, making a
schedule always helps me to reduce the stress and to unload the pressure in my
head.
For this reason, finally, I am calmer because
the apartment is now ready for rent and the final step is to find somebody who
wants to live there. Just the thought of traveling to that apartment made me
very anxious because I have to clean it every time (it is not a small one), buy
food, unpack everything, put it away, after that pack to leave it. I find it
too much, especially, doing it every month.
So now, that is out of my mind and when going
to my home city we are staying with my mother and stress levels will be lower.
Do not get me wrong, cleaning, grocery shopping, packing etc are still there,
but differently. Moreover, you always have somebody extra to help you.
Not having this in my mind, I could spend more
time thinking about my dreams, time to write in the blog and to do whatever I
like.
