I think I have come to the conclusion this is what I have.

Thank you for that MTS.

there's an excellent book on the subject of OCD/unpleasant thoughts called "The Imp of the Mind" by Lee Baer that I've got. CAT me if you would like to borrow it from me. (it is quite easy to order from amazon).

MTS - pleased you found this interesting. I read it again last night as I hadn't appreciated the link between PND and OCD before.
