I usually dont have anxiety or ocd just obsessive tendencies but after some things that upset me a lot, a few weeks later i started having racing thoughts and ir feels like my brain is out of control and all my senses are hyper active , i just became super ocd about the sound of my breathing and like it will drive me to insanety or each breath will cause anxiety ofc its not true eveb if i dont think about it i just have a throbing headache all the time, cant sleep at all… i have no idea whata going on… please help i think something wrong with my brain.. one thought can send a heat wave instantly to my head and feel like burning… i cant sleep and i am becoming suicidal

Could you help me sleeping with my breathing OCD?

Lol damn thats a long time.. i was anxiety and ocd free for 7 years a and i know its possible to get out again but this time its a bit different but hopefully i will be fine again.. started medication

@VaderFett Man… we have a similar story.. I always thought people with ocd have it lifelong etc but for me irs wheb my panic and anxiety starts my ocd starts and once anxiety goes it becomes normally.. im just afraid my breathing rhing will be forever like it makes no sense to me im 29 i breathed ly whole life now i am anxious abour my breathing sounds and super aware of it… like i just feel like not normal and it seems to also be rare? Maybe im wrong

@VaderFett Ocd is a beast and idk i am a bit traumatised because of my panic attacks and and Anxiety disorder I literally went 3 times to rhe doctors in a day for days even xanax wudnt calm me down.. like it was out of the blue this episode and then my oc started my mind tells me i will go insane listening to my own sounds lol especially breathing one… i dont get it with rhe heart i didnt have an obsession lol who knows this is my third theme theuout the three episodes.. before I thought I actually had tinnitus and ear issues and now i realise it was just severe ocd abour ear noise

@Dona So with my breathing i am convinced its my ocd because last times i had another somatic theme which i did without medication but this time i wanna handle it better and not let it go away after months but i want to beat this sooner with professional help hopefully i started medication i cudnt even sleep id wakeup with panic attacks so now im using a medication i sleep like a baby
