OCD Racing, Repeating thoughts/Bedridden with MS

I am alone in bed 24/7. I am 47.I have nothing but time on my hands and a mind that spins for hours at a time. This happens 2 to 3 times a day. Once I had 1 1/2 days that I was spared. I had myself convinced that it was over. Is there anyone else with racing thoughts who needs someone to talk to? I'm desperate

It sounds like you are bed ridden and seeing a psychologist may not be feasible for you.  Here are a couple of books that I suggest to people:

The OCD Workbook:  Your Guide to Breaking free of OCD
Brain Lock
Self-Coaching by Joseph Luciani
