Think of it as an ERP exercise! You did it, it was scary, but you got through it.
Omg same. Saw a Tik Tok live about ignoring intuition and if I didn’t go thru with something then I’d be ignoring what’s good for me and they even mentioned “you may need to let a relationship go” and it SENT me 😭 it made me feel a weird sense of good and bad. Can’t even begin to understand
I read tarot cards for a living. They are crazy accurate most of the time. Tarot cards are there to guide us in times of uncertainty. Our subconscious knows what we need to hear and when. You get a tarot card reading, the messages from the cards will usually always relate to you in some way. Tarot cards are not meant to be scary or bad or evil. They got a bad wrap because Christians put it out there a long long LONG time ago that anything supernatural is the way of the devil. The is the farthest from the truth. Tarot cards can bring you peace, insight into your issues, guidance to point you in the right direction , and much much more. Don’t be frightened of them. You will always receive your most needed message at that moment. If you would like for me to pull a few cards for you, (for free this time), I would be happy to. I would need your full name at birth and you whole birthday. No need to be scared though. It’s all good.
Regardless of the matter, I control my life. Even if some things don’t always “feel” right. Tarot’s are only suggestions just like astrologers can only truly suggest. Not tell you that this one way is the ONLY way. It’s harmful for people with ocd to hear that our guts are our second brain unfortunately. It makes us spiral more. We can use spirituality but cannot rely 10000%. Only mere suggestions as to what can possibly and what possibly should change. Even to a small degree. For everyone worried about Tarot cards predicting their futures for them, check out Awaken Into Love and watch/read Kiyomi’s stories and suggestions about how to handle those moments. We are always in control of our own stories. Even when the path is blurry and confusing. We can still choose.
Very well said. Tarot is only guidance, suggestions, a new way of seeing things. Whatever path you choose, that is your choice and your choice only. Tarot can just offer more insight.
Oh yes, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, NEVER ignore your intuition. If you do, you won’t like the outcome. That “gut feeling” we all get, that is our intuition warning us of danger or giving us reassurance. Your gut is your bodies second brain. It’s very interesting. Everyone should look it up in order to understand your gut instant or intuition. Hang in there all!
With all due respect, I know you mean well but this is harmful advice for many with ocd. Ocd is an anxiety disorder that tricks us into feeling fear, doubt, insecurity. To many of us, this feels like a "gut feeling" but it's just ocd. If we believe every anxiety is a warning, we will spiral out of control. It's so important NOT to fall for the ocd fears, but rather to acknowledge they are just anxious thoughts and feelings, not threats.
@Shaylene67 Thank you for also seeing it this way, i was hoping I wasn’t the only one
@Shaylene67 Well, since I struggle with OCD myself, hence why I’m here, I completely understand. Not in any way was I attempting to trigger anyone or have anyone spiral out of control. That is the last thing I would want because that is a scary feeling. I also get panic attacks, so I do know what that feels like and in no way would I ever wish that upon anyone. You are absolutely right. Possibly I could have worded things differently. My apologies to anyone who read this and felt triggered by it or in some way disrespected. That was not my intention whatsoever. I know all too well about fear, doubt, and insecurities. I am 48 years old and have had many many times of fear, doubt, and insecurities. Hang in there!
@jbadass No worries and no need to apologize! I can tell what a great community this is and we're all just trying to help each other in the best ways we know how ❤
I woke up this morning feeling like all weird, I went on Google to look at escape rooms and my ocd of corse kept saying there’s kids there and I felt groinal responses and actually stopped on the post that I thought was a child to look at them and feel aroused. My heart sank and now I need to wash my whole body and myself please can ocd do this
Ever since I found out about relationship OCD, I’ve been researching non-stop. Google, Reddit, ChatGPT, this app… I regret it deeply. Before I knew what ROCD was, I still had disturbing thoughts, but I didn’t spiral like this. I didn’t question reality this deeply. But now… it’s like I’ve implanted in my mind that I have a disorder that’s “unfixable” or that only gets better with time. And even though I struggled before, since I started researching obsessively, I feel like I’ve completely lost control. My boyfriend told me that I’ve gotten worse ever since I began searching. And I see it — I used to be able to express love. I used to say “I love you” a lot. Now I can’t even say it. And when I did say it before, I think I was using it like a compulsion — like if I say it enough, maybe the thoughts will stop. But they didn’t. Now I can’t even be intimate without feeling this horrible discomfort, sometimes even disgust. And I remember telling my therapist that — and she said it’s not normal to feel disgust when your partner touches you. That devastated me. It stuck in my head. And now? It all feels real. Not like “just thoughts.” It feels like I’m denying the truth, like I’ve ruined everything by digging too deep. I’m not myself anymore. I’m not the girlfriend I used to be. I feel like I’ve lost everything — even my ability to feel love. There’s a constant pressure in my chest, like a weight I can’t describe. And no matter what anyone says — whether it’s hopeful or scary — it doesn’t bring me peace. I feel completely lost inside my own mind. I don’t even know why I’m posting. Maybe because I just want to feel less alone.
so like i was like researching spirituality and i saw that when spiritual awakening happens you kind of question yourself and your values then i saw a shadow work video and they said if you judge someone its because somewhere deep down youre like them , so im scared what if im a pedo and someone did a tarot reading on me once and i dont really remember the exact words but they mentioned something about how im avoiding the truth or something like that and the first thing that came to my mind was being a pedo and incest and recently ive been ignoring all the thoughts cause i was exhausted from doing so many compulsions then i got scared that if i go to therapy they will just tell me what i want to hear. im so scared
