Book excerpt: MY PRIVATE DIARY There is a German proverb which says, "Hope is the last to die" Maybe this book can help you. Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a mental disorder in which a person feels the need to perform certain routines repeatedly (called "compulsions"), or has certain thoughts repeatedly (called "obsessions"). The person is unable to control either the thoughts or activities for more than a short period of time. Common compulsions include hand washing, counting of things, and checking to see if a door is locked. Some may have difficulty throwing things out. These activities occur to such a degree that the person's daily life is negatively affected. This often takes up more than an hour a day. Most adults realize that the behaviors do not make sense. The condition is associated with tics, anxiety disorder, and an increased risk of suicide. The Cover comes with a looped ribbon that represents support for the patient or survivor.

Download or read book Prozac Diary written by Lauren Slater and published by Random House. This book was released on 2011-06-01 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of the acclaimed Welcome to My Country describes in this provocative and funny memoir the ups and downs of living on Prozac for ten years, and the strange adjustments she had to make to living "normal life." Today millions of people take Prozac, but Lauren Slater was one of the first. In this rich and beautifully written memoir, she describes what it's like to spend most of your life feeling crazy--and then to wake up one day and find yourself in the strange state of feeling well. And then to face the challenge of creating a whole new life. Once inhibited, Slater becomes spontaneous. Once terrified of maintaining a job, she accepts a teaching position and ultimately earns several degrees in psychology. Once lonely, she finds love with a man who adores her. Slater is wonderfully thoughtful and articulate about all of these changes, and also about the downside of taking Prozac: such matters as dependency, sexual dysfunction, and Prozac "poop-out." "The beauty of Lauren Slater's prose is shocking," said Newsday about Welcome to My Country, and Slater's remarkable gifts as a writer are present here in sentences that are like elegant darts, hitting at the center of the deepest human feelings. Prozac Diary is a wonderfully written report from inside a decade on Prozac, and an original writer's acute observations on the challenges of living modern life.

Read her diary and follow her story as she grows up and finds the way to overcome OCD and win at the day to day wars with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. "One day I went to the bathroom, I had done all the actions that I was supposed to do, but I could not stop. I found myself washing my hands again and again simply because I didn't feel good. I hadn't felt like it was done properly and that I had covered every single spot on each hand. I continued to wash my hands again and again until the soap was soaked into my skin. When it happened, I didn't feel like my hands were clean because the soap disappeared. As if maybe I didn't wash my hands and they're not really clean. And so I would add more and more soap. Washing and adding soap, washing and adding, I would finish more than half a bottle of liquid soap. I couldn't stop. I stood like this for half an hour while washing my hands, getting annoyed with myself, stomping my feet, feeling an urge to move, crying nonstop and going nuts. My father approached me, told me enough. He grabbed my hands and moved them from the sink. I cried and brought them back and kept washing. I told him to leave me alone. After 10 minutes he came back and I was still there. Washing my hands. He told me enough, finished. I did not manage to. As he walked down the hall again, I closed the door with my leg. After 10 minutes of terrible and ongoing suffering, I stopped. My hands were red, dry, bleeding and sore. With a lot of foam still left in the sink, so much so that it was completely flooded. And even then I did not feel well. So I opened the door carefully, with my elbow of course, went through the hallway to my room and got under the blanket. I fell asleep. In total it took me more than 45 minutes to wash my hands. It's my memory, it's what I remember, the lack of control, that stage when I realized more and more how bad my situation was and continued to do it all anyway with one thought in mind - there is something wrong with me."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jim Bailey is a Gulliver walking the nooks and crannies of a beach community simply trying to sell his books, do his research, and find a port where he can write the Next Great American Novel and Worldwide TV Series - only to meet the weird, the wacky, and the odd - person or situation which may or may not get him back in time to switch his car to the other side of the street before the cops tow away his sleeping quarters. And the Power of O.C.D. Cannot Be Denied: Jim Bailey's diary reveals A Don Quixote of a Writer-Against-All-Odds: An artist on foot, sleeping in his car, struggling to push his great work of written art up the steep hill of Competition, Access, and The Marketplace. Or: Tilting at sun worshipers, book-readers, the homeless, agents, or producers he meets on his daily rounds of beaches, coffee shops and the rear aisle of bookstores he sneaks into trying to sell his books. Great characters. A funny read. One minute Jim is meeting a famous actor in a Malibu bookstore and the next minute he's fighting off a psychotic street person. Undaunted he goes from one book store to another and will not leave unless he finds at least one customer to purchase his book. Along the way he meets Bob Dylan and Pierce Brosnan and many other celebrities that purchase his book. He ended up selling thousands of books, "One book at a time" and ended up with a movie option. If you like quirky and motivating stories, give this a go. Mel Brooks and Larry Hankin have blurbs on it!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains: - 40 Affirmations to help you deal with the compulsive thoughts and reactions - Quick 5 minute tracking exercises so you can track the compulsions and how you reacted to them - Self reflection pages - Notes Growing up, I have found myself struggling with strong compulsive thoughts and behaviours. They usually come in waves, I have periods of time where the thoughts are weak and I am able to ignore them. Other times, the compulsions and emotions are so strong and virtually impossible to ignore. Throughout these struggles I couldn't help but notice a lack of thought and emotion tracking books on the market. Through some of my darkest times I would have loved to have known that I do not need to feel this way. To have a little diary I can take around with me to separate the thoughts from myself and to get them onto paper. I have been told all of my life that OCD is something that will stay with me forever - but I wanted to challenge that. My self-improvement journey has opened my eyes to the world of Affirmations. These beautiful little things have had such an incredible impact on my life and helped me believe things about myself I never would have believed beforehand. 40 Affirmations for OCD - The Diary, has been created as a book of reassurance for those struggling with negative thoughts and emotions, compulsive behaviours and for those feeling like they have a lack of control over their mind. Sometimes it just really helps to get out of your head and onto paper what has been bothering you, the thoughts lose their power and you are able to rationalise. The process in this book provides you with the tools to reassure, track and to create new thought patterns which you can forever refer back to when the inevitability of the OCD strikes again. Over time, with practise and new habits being built internally, the OCD will lose its power. It is not in control of you. I have been able to silence my OCD over time and I want you to know that you can too. You CAN find peace in your mind and heart and I hope that this diary can change your life like methods in it have changed mine. PLEASE NOTE - If you have purchased the OCD Workbook, the affirmations are the same as the ones in this book, the processes just differ.
