yeah, it’s because you do so many compulsions you lose certainty where there used to be some
I agree with ???. I started out way less severe, but the more compulsions i practiced and reassurance i got it started to muddy everything and my brain basically became a slave to the ocd. So much so that my brains basically running on the ocd track automatically but nothing is actually allieviating because i know its not who I am. Ocd can be VERY powerful. Sadly one of my reassurance behaviours is to read posts on other types of ocd to see what behaviours mirror mine, showing that just because my theme isnt necessarily "taboo" doesnt mean its not ocd.
I don’t even know if I am aroused by the thought of being with a woman. I feel numb to every feeling. It’s like I am just this living anxiety “being” that doesn’t know what it feels
Mine has gotten to the pint where I don’t know ANYTHING. I don’t know if I would like to get into a relationship with a woman, if I find a woman attractive. Now all I can think when I see a woman is “what would it be like if a where in a relationship with one”. I don’t know what I feel anymore. I don’t know anything. It truly makes it worse. I used to think being with a woman was disgusting, I don’t know what I feel like towards it anymore
Do you guys ever look back on old obsessions and think “oh gosh that was nothing compared to the one I’m going through now?” I do this all the time. Things that use to freak me out really bad are way less intense then they are now. Idk if that’s just how OCD is or if it’s just because mine has gotten worse. Hoping I push through this?
Can OCD make you go crazy or can it just mock symptoms of losing your mind? Weird question I know. I have just been struggling really bad lately and wondering if it’s something more then OCD.
Can OCD calm down for no reason? I’ve always had pretty bad symptoms and it’s usually quite overwhelming, but recently I’ve moved to uni and for some reason my symptoms are minor now, there’s still some there but I can cope with them? It seems like a good thing but at the same time I feel like I’ve been faking this whole time.
