Yes! Living in the north, or far south, is not good for your mental health. In Sweden it is practically impossible to get the enough-to-function level of Vitamin D during autumn and winter. They even put Vitamin D in our groceries to combat the problem. I react even harder than my friends on the winter in Sweden, so I've already now started to come up with plans how to escape the Nordic winter next time.
your ocd feeds on your current mood. normally when theres nothing positive your ocd is gonna be like ha ha have this irrational fear and SUFFER!!! if its great weather outside literally grab your ear plugs and take a long walk. go to like one of those candy vendor stores and fill up on your favorite candy for home. if the weathers shit wrap yourself in a blanket light a candle and make yourself a hot beverage. quietly sing yourself like a lullaby or something and just embrace comfort. thats how i cope.
Luckily in my country there is just summertime or winter, and winter is only rain so it’s not that big of a differencs
I live on the same latitude as southern Alaska in the US, and Scotland in the UK.
Does your OCD get worse during your period? I usually hear that OCD can get worse shortly before the period (PMS/PMDD), but my mental health declines rapidly DURING my period. Does anyone else experience the same?
but does anyone else’s intrusive thoughts and false memories get worse during the night or like as soon as the sun sets? it’s gotten to a point now where i dread the sun setting because ik it’s gonna be worse. i don’t know if this has anything to do with ocd??
Hi friends, Everytime my period comes around my ocd tends to get worse. Just curious if anyone else deals with this and if you have any tools/tips on how to deal?
