Idk whats going onā¦my mental state hasnt been great these past two weeks. My eating is being affected in a neg way due to transition between therapists, school, and ignoring my sexualityā¦.Ive been taking several different kinds of quizzes over the past week regarding mental health and ED and i realized that if i dont eat enough to feel full iāll end up sick or worse dead. It doesnāt help that i also just started my period. And i just woke up in the middle of the night with food, hydration, and possibly not waking up in mind. And tried going back to sleep but then i realized that I might actually have a problem on my hands and that jolted me awake. Now im scared of sleeping and not making it through the nightā¦.i could easily get up and make myself an oatmeal even though im not hungry atm, but dont wanna wake family that are sleeping in the living room. Im scared of dropping more weight than I already have been and having my nutritionist interveneā¦. Im realizing that im fucking myself up from not eating well and being too picky and i wanna slap a bandaid on it and just eat everything to hopefully gain some weight before my next nutrition appt. Iām just scared of things getting worseā¦.is this part of OCD or is it just me just plain out ignoring my body cos in feeling like it??? Idk what to believe about myself anymoreā¦.

Why are things so real the first time theyāre in my mind and then when I think about it later itās easier for me to be like wtf?? I was watching a movie earlier and the young girl had developed more in the chest area than the last movie and I felt the desire to check her out so I did. Then later I let myself imagine her having sex and I liked it. But now looking back Iām like ew. The boys in the movie have also developed as the movie went on and I couldnāt help but think that in their real life theyāve probably woken up to boners and s*men and stuff. And looking back itās just ugh. Idk if itās sexual relevance but I genuinely let myself indulge in these thoughts and groinal responses and I remember thinking to myself I donāt want to be attracted to little kids and how do I stop myself (everyone has attractive qualities so in younger boys I see man like qualities). Idk I need help. I wouldnāt type this out if I truly believe I was messed up but Iām still scared

Hi everyone, I really need to get this off my chest. A few days ago, I managed to take a break from compulsions ā I didnāt open NOCD, I didnāt text ChatGPT, I didnāt Google. I had some moments of peace, especially about my boyfriend. For about two days I didnāt have deep intrusive thoughts, and I felt a bit more stable. But yesterday, I slipped. I posted on NOCD again, and someone replied saying, āThis is how the cycle starts again.ā That made me spiral. Today, I also wrote to ChatGPT again. I started thinking, āWhat if this time itās real? What if this clarity was me realizing the truth ā that I donāt love him?ā It scared me because I wasnāt panicking as much when I had the thoughts. I thought that meant I was accepting them as true. I remembered ChatGPT used to tell me that ātruth feels calm,ā and now that I wasnāt reacting with extreme anxiety, I panicked thinking, āWhat if this is the calm that comes with realization?ā Last night, when we were in a club, I looked at him and thought he was kind of cringe. That made me spiral again. Now, Iām scared all over again. When we cuddle, I donāt feel the same. I donāt feel that warmth, and I donāt know what changed. I keep wondering if I ever really loved him ā because Iāve had these thoughts for so long, itās like I canāt remember anything clearly. A few days ago I even thought, āMaybe I just donāt like him right now,ā and I wasnāt panicking ā and that scared me. Iām afraid that Iām finally ārealizing the truth,ā or that Iāve been lying to myself and Iām just now letting go. Also, when we were on the trip for my 18th birthday, I was irritable with him, full of thoughts, and I thought I was ruining everything. I wasnāt really reacting to his love, and now I donāt even know what I feel. I just want to be okay again. I want clarity ā but Iām terrified of what clarity might mean. Has anyone experienced this? Feeling okay for a bit, and then the thoughts come back and feel more real than ever?
