Hi There:

I guess I am just being impatient, but the bdd does not stop. I see a new doctor in a few weeks and hopefully we can do something with the medication, but it is a little frustrating when you put the work in and you do not see the results. Granted I may be anxiety ridden, because I went to doing nothing to a lot, but I am just PISSED. I trying having a positive attitude, but truly I just want to cry.

I am working about 15-20 hours a week for a boy who is mildly autistic. I have been doing exposures like taking him the the playground and such, and I try grounding techniques like looking at things on the playground, but there is so much anxiety when I see other people at the playground.

I actually start another job babysitting for a little boy about 8 hours next week. And I am doing some home health care jobs on the side. I also have a few other babysitting jobs. I have to be honest, I am 28 and my career is "babysitting" I feel a littler pathetic.

I do run with "front runners" the gay running group on Saturday. I have to be honest about this to, they give some gay people a really bad name. Everything is always sexual and I have not seen such a group of vain/shallow idiots in my life. I have decided not to go as much. I am also joining a bowling league  starting this Friday.

If this bdd could take a back seat I would live a somewhat normal life. I am just PISSED. And losing patients.

 Patience is a hard thing to master.....but atleast you have a plan.  You know what to do and what not to do.....now you just have to get better at executing it. 

 Next time you feel anxiety....remind yourself it's an opportunity.  It's an opportunity to make positive changes in your life.  :  )

Sorry you're going through this Justin. I totally know what u mean about the gay front runners group ..its too bad so many gay men are like that ya know? But they are! Babysitting or caregiving is an excellent job to be proud of -you are giving of yourself and your time to those in need on a personal level. I think its great. :) Good luck with that bowling league!! Could be a good time! Let us know!
