For the longest time, I feel like I have waged a battle against my obsessive mind. I have found using the "Four Steps" probably more helpful than anything and using principles of mindfulness a good resource in dealing with the thoughts and behaviours.
Most of my of my obsessions can last a long time, but many intrusive themes come and go. But the worrys and thoughts I have about weight loss and dieting just don't seem to respond to the same methods. Does it not make sense that they should? Are obsessions about weight, calories and food in away not similar to OCD obsessions.
I wonder what I am doing wrong that I can't tone down the volume of the noise on this one.
