Yup!!! Seemed like the minute I got over my HOCD and felt confident in myself, POCD started. And I literally never would’ve though POCD would get ahold of me but it did unfortunately

That’s terrible. This is a new thing for me, just started a few months ago and I’m learning a lot in regards to exposure. But I’m wondering if it ever just kind of fizzles out for good

Not looking for reassurance. But most podcasts and things I’ve listened to didn’t really mention it always latching on to something else. There is something therapeutic about it switching because it makes me realize all the more that it’s all ocd. Especially when it’s over something super ridiculous

@mattylee Yes it can ,it goes away but you can’t react badly to any negative thought that’s how it gets you

It is very common for OCD to change themes. OCD wants to hold on at all costs.

Yeah it feels like it’s changing pretty quick which is what threw me off.

Feeling “normal” again
Anyone else feel that when they aren’t experiencing a theme that their ocd is almost non existent. It almost makes me feel like I’ve been faking it, and also makes me feel ridiculous for obsessing over things. I feel sorry for myself :/ I know that my themes are valid and felt very real in the moment, but after I “get over” them I just can’t believe that I was obsessing over something that either wasn’t true or didn’t apply to me. I would also like to know how to prevent themes from reoccurring. Health, religion and existential OCD themes tend to take turns throughout my life, I just didn’t know that was it ocd. Trying to break the cycle.

Is this happening to you?
Does anyone else ever feel like they don’t feel “bad enough” to have OCD, or that they don’t feel “the right way” for it? Or like they’re just saying they have OCD as an excuse? Because i was so much better for like 3 weeks now and now im on my period and i started doubting again. So because of that im scared that i was feeling to good and that my fear is actually true.

Is this something OCD does?
Whenever anyone starts to feel like their thoughts are less triggering or they feel a moment of happiness/ relief OCD tells you that you want the thoughts back or you actually like having the thoughts and maybe thats just the person I really am? I feel like im going insane😢
