Hi guys and girls i have been dealing with ocd and panic disorder for yrs in November i had a near mental breakdown i have gotten tons better which im comfortable with. Except ever since my mental breakdown i will get memory recalls about certain things that I lived though during the mental breakdown as an example a certain person that I had spoken to during that horrible time once a memory has been recalled ill become very anxious as it reminds me of how scared i felt back then I also feel a very strong feeling of that event happening in the present i realise its not really happening but I still have that strong feeling of past becoming present this can last hours into the next day. Does anyone experience this about traumatic things thats happened to them? Is this a flashback? Ive tried to explain this to my psychiatrist but he puts it down to my ocd but im not even obsessing about anything when it happens? Really need some advice

      I really think that the MRI will come out good! I dont think you have anything.

      Do you think your anxiety will fade after?

      I really hope the mri is normal just getting werid episodes were I get a split second of confusion like tonight I was watching tv and I had a fast passing thought that my mum is still on holidays and I should call her my mum has returned from her holiday months ago that split second I thought mum was away within a second I realized mum was home also sometimes when I'm alone I'll for a split second think a friend's with Mr in the car within a second I realize no one's with me it's not a hallucination I don't see anyone next to me it's just I get confused and think someone is next to me this is why I'm freaking out so mri is needed I'm worried I've got some brain diseases

      it happens, it could just be a mental disorder that is easily treatable.

      Can you keep us all posted?

      I'm hoping its anxiety I have been diagnosed with health anxiety with somatic symptoms as well as ocd and panic disorder and dissociation God I sound nuts 😁 I have been suffering really bad from dissociation since January so maybe it's from that well I'm hoping its from this other mental disorders have been ruled out from my psyh Dr I'll get the mri tomorrow the results will take up to a week my neurosurgeon has sent me for one because I was diagnosed with a cavanoma that's micro bleed four years ago but I don't think its from that I'll keep everyone posted
