I get you dear Lavender. Ocd tricks you into thinking that maybe you are just in denial or avoidance. It's just how it works. It is life sucking

Learning how to identify what OCD is will help you invalidate the thoughts that come with it. If you already know a certain thought is obsessive and it comes to your mind, then you will know it isnt real

Yes, Charice, it really does feel that way. Sometimes it feels like I can gasp for some air, just to be sucked by the water again. Thank you so much for your support, it means a lot. And maga, I keep having to remind myself that this is only ocd, but sometimes I go on thinking that maybe it's really true, and that ocd is just showing me who I really am, which is terrifying. This isn't who I want to be at all. I feel disconnected from myself, I feel cold, tired and hurt. Maybe this is detachment? I have no idea.

Today I felt the same way you did. I asked myself: if these thoughts aren't real, why would I think them? If they have no basis, why have I spent so much time and energy battling them. Why would I worry about such stupid, nonsensical shit? It's the wrong question to ask I guess, cuz it ends up giving life and importance to the thoughts. That doesn't stop me from asking myself that. I guess I just have to admit that some questions have no rational answer

Bro I'm scared rn, so there was a compulsion I did like 2hrs ago and I didn't do it properly cuz I kept getting a thought saying "something is gonna come in Ur room and kill you or you will have this illness It triggers me to say it but I froze because I kept seeing like a shadow and cuz I was home alone and it's dark so I didn't answer it 😃 and cuz I answered it late saying obviously I don't want to illness I would rather have the other (half of me knows it's not real), and I prayed 4 times as well cuz I didn't do the compulsion properly I tried doing it again logs if times and 1 hour later I tried again but It still didn't feel right, and now the thought is hurting my body a little and I feel shivery, and I have tried doing the compulsion but it's not working. Why can't these thighs just leave me alone and stop saying about illnesses all the time. And idk how I'm gonna get thru the night cuz I can't get the thought out of my head and I won't be able to do anything properly.

So over all of this. Why do periods have to make everything so much worse. I keep thinking that I can get over an intrusive thought and then the next one comes in. My brain tries to make be obsess over something that i've already obsessed about and moved on from. Wish this could be over.

Last week was a lot easier for me. I felt like thoughts didn’t control me and my actions as much as they did earlier. Today was really hard for me and I feel like I’m starting to lose hope again:( I can’t take the thoughts and the feelings that come with them anymore. I feel like I have failed and I’m never going to be happy again.
