Yes, I think a lot of us with ocd, phobias, or anxiety otherwise do this. I have suicidal ocd and often think how other forms might be easier. Or how I wish I were afraid of airplanes, because I could avoid them and just not fly. I was actually talking to my NOCD therapist today about this. But I don’t think the theme matters much, because you don’t know how hard something is until you’ve experienced it. You don’t know how often triggers come up until they’re your triggers. I think sometimes the grass can seem greener but I’m sure it isn’t. I also feel oddly grateful sometimes for what I go through, because there are forms I would never want to deal with.

I’ve had almost every theme and they all are painful but pocd is unbearable.. I’ve never experienced pain quite like this in my entire life. You feel betrayed by your own body.

This makes me so sad to hear for you because I know how CONFUSING and PAINFUL it is. Just remember that you are allowed to separate thoughts that you think and unwelcome thoughts that you cannot stop. POCD is like a freight train coming into the station with no brakes while you are standing on the tracks trying to stop it with your bare hands

OCD tends to latch on to whatever you would consider the most painful , so really any OCD theme. But yes, POCD sucks ass.

TW: pedocd I agree that they are all probably the same level of difficulty but I definitely hear you with some of them being WAYYYY less acceptable or palletable. People think it’s really cute that I have to eat my food in a certain order, they definitely do not think it’s cute that I’m crying in a mall bathroom because of intrusive images of graphic child porn running through my head, that’s a really really tough one to explain to even your closest support system.

“No, I am not attracted to children. I just graphically obsess over the nature of being attracted to children for large quantities of my day in full distress” yeah you are not winning with the average joe there 😓

ocd is like the clown from "IT", it shapes itself into your worst fear so anyone can see their fear as the worst. It really sucks.

Feeling “not ocd enough”

Always feeling jealous of other people
Does anyone else struggle with this? I am constantly feeling jealous of all of my friends and wishing I could just be them because I know they don’t struggle with this and my obsession. I am even jealous of others with ocd, for example when I’m on here reading posts, I think to myself “I would rather have anyone else’s obsessions because it would be better than what I have and I’d be happy”. I know it’s not true at all because every time my obsession changes it feels just as bad as the last. But it is always in my mind it’s exhausting.
