I feel you. If proof is best for you, you can always get blood work done to make sure you're healthy. But, instead of reassurance and thousands in medical bills, ik easier said then done, but until something actually feels wrong or you know something is wrong, try not to worry too much about your health. Drink water, eat decent and exercise and they rest is up to the universe. Don't stress too much, I'm sure you're not as unhealthy as your ocd believes!
Right!! Thanks!!
@Keisha123 Anytime. I hope you feel better asap!
Oh I’m in your same boat
I’m obsessing over it at 35 , damn I got it 5 years early
This is something that we have to accept that we can’t control, I’m 22 and terrifying about death as well. At the end of the day wouldnt we rather just enjoy and experience life rather than spending day and night worrying about it. Life is confusing and we can’t get all the answers in our life time so we must simply just live because that is all we are here to do. All that matters is that you are here in this moment.
I just recently turned 51 and take medication for ocd but STILLhave major issues--i need some hope--🥰
Of course we can’t stop the inevitable but with my ocd it’s all I can think about. I’m afraid I’ll be alone for ever and I’ll fear forever. Fear does not stop death it stops life. But how do I stop fear??? I can’t think of anything scarier than the fact that our conscious will vanish for eternity. I am only 20 years old but I mean the last 5 years flew by like nothing.
Starting to think I have unresolved childhood trauma unfortunately. Health OCD is also driving my absolutely crazy but I'm too scared to go to my doctor. I worry about diabetes, illnesses, cancer, skin problems, etc. I just hope everything works out in the end. Right now I just can't do the things I love doing because I'm constantly worrying about everything. All of my worries are exacerbated and I just can't keep them away. They only come back.
