Episode 290: Intrusive Thoughts of Harming Family & Ruminating About Therapy

The Hardcore Self Help Podcast with Duff the Psych

Hello, friends! I hope you are all doing well. In this episode, I start off with a quick update about my experience so far on Lexapro (escitalopram), an SSRI medication for anxiety. After that, I jump straight into the following super interesting questions:

• I have OCD with intrusive thoughts about harming my loved ones. What can I do about this?
• I ruminate about therapy constantly, having imaginary conversations in my head. Is that bad?

As always, you can send me your questions to [e-mail] and find the show notes at http://duffthepsych.com/episode290
