Hi anita,

I’m not sure if being a bad person is my core belief because I only usually feel this way when I went through OCD with intrusive thoughts and with the situation I mentioned on this forum. I think the reason why I felt like I didn’t deserve to be happy when I remember this memory is because it goes against my morals and I started questioning myself. I also don’t recall anyone from my childhood who falsely made me believe that I was a bad person, but then again maybe I just didn’t remember.

I do know that essentially my problem is that I worry and over think a lot – to the point where I forget and neglect my priorities. I worry what other people think (I feel this stems from my family and the need to please others), I worry that I might be failing (When compared to my friends and people my age, I feel that I’m so much less successful), and sometimes I feel unloved (from my parents divorce and them not being present during my childhood). Is it possible to have more than one core belief?

Thank you!
