obsessive – NOT YOUR DOC

ISSUES WHICH DISTRACT FROM THE FACT THAT OUR ADDICTED, ANXIOUS, OBSESSED, ADHD’D, TRAUMATIZED, OR DEPRESSED BRAINS (which we need to trust) ARE AT THE ROOT OF OUR MOST SEVERE PROBLEMS: PERSONALITY DIFFICULTIES, FAMILY STRIFE, SOCIAL TENSIONS, WORK RELATED CONFLICTS, FINANCIAL TROUBLES, AND LEGAL ISSUES.

FOR OBSESSIVE PERFECTIONISTS, 100% OF THE STATEMENTS BELOW ARE ARTIFICIAL, GENERATED BY OUR MINDS, AND NOT BASED IN REALITY…

“IT IS NOT DONE YET.” “IT IS SUCH A BIG PROJECT.” “IT IS TOO HARD TO START.” “I HAVE SO MUCH GOING ON.” “YOU DO NOT REALIZE HOW MUCH TIME THIS IS GOING TO TAKE.” “I DO NOT GET A SENSE OF REWARD FROM DOING THIS.” Charles Tadros, M.D. July 30, 2021 Saint Louis, Missouri

OBSESSIVENESS

WHEN YOU DO THINGS EXHAUSTINGLY ( not just exhaustively), YOU MAY ROB YOURSELF OF… Energy to be present Energy for other responsibilities Energy for fun Health (an increase of risk for acute and chronic diseases) Charles Tadros, M.D. May 15, 2021 Saint Louis, Missouri
