If I am not stressed and obsessed about this then I will end up just PMOing?

    I have severe ocd and obsessions. Basically I become hyper focused on something, and I get unwanted thoughts coming in to my head the entire day about what I am hyper focused on. The thing is I tend to do well with the thing I am hyper focused on.

    I don't know about a lot of you guys, but I am completely hyper focused on this issue of recovering from PMO brain changes and PMO addiction.

    But the thing is it almost feels like a mental torture as well. I am fed up with this basically dictating my life in a lot of ways, and being the main thing i am thinking about all day every day.

    But I do feel like if I am not obsessing about it and worrying about it that I would relapse much easier.

    I feel like I can't win.

    I have been diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome and can totally relate to obsessing on a certain thing. Hyperfocusing is both a blessing and a curse, makes me great at my job, but can be a pain in the ass elsewhere in life.

    In my own life, I have to set boundaries. I have a certain day picked out to spank the monkey etc. I do well with schedules, dunno if that would work for you. It doesn't feel like cheating, relapsing etc. If you allow yourself the opportunity to have that "thing" at the appropriate time

    A walk with God has also helped me these last few months. I pray if it's not my scheduled time to blow it all over the room sort of speak, I hold fast to what I've learned thus far and speak my problems out of my life verbally.

    In the past and to this day it has helped immensely
