    Ana - I’m sorry your experiencing these worries and racing thoughts.  Please take some “slow” gentle deep breaths and try to relax and calm your body and mind.  Maybe go on YouTube and listen to some relaxing meditation clips to help facilitate some rest and calm for your racing thoughts.  This take a little effort and some refocusing, but it can help immensely.   Later I would make an appointment to see your doctor to inspect your throat (burn).  My assumption (I’m no doctor) is that it’s fine and your simply worrying about nothing.  But in anycase have them check you out so that you can put that worry to rest.  After that don’t think about it.  From there try to incorporate some mindfulness and meditation techniques.  Look into it online.  It requires no medication, has no side effects, and once you get good at it, it can be powerful tool for calming you body and mind.  Plus it’s free and you can do it whenever you need.  Build it into you daily routine.  Also, you may want to look into yoga.  That might bee cool too.   Best wishes.

      Sounds like your on the right track.  Just need keep at it and you’ll overcome this.   Sharing your situation and your thoughts here will be very helpful.  Its like talking it out...  Better to fight this “together”, right?  Take care.

    Hi. Try not to let your ocd overwhelm you I’ve been there so many times. Thinking of you . Try taking deep breaths and thinking each thought through slowly and rationally. 

    When I was pregnant and then when my first baby was born my ocd when through the roof. I eventually managed to beat it (if you ever can truly beat it) or at least calm it down by telling myself that the thoughts I was having that something bad would happen to my baby we’re illogical because I was actually doing everything in my power to care for my baby. Ocd takes your fear and holds it and that’s gives it power so take the fear away x
