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.

Confused about ocd
How to know if you actually have it or if I’m just making up the symptoms? I have a lot of intrusive thoughts constantly and even have a “theme” but it really surged after I search up what I was experiencing, but then again I search up a lot of what I experience and constantly have to recheck things. My parents say I’m normal but I know I’m not, (both of my siblings have adhd) I find it immensely hard to focus from turning 17-18. Please let me know what you think l! Thanks!

Is this happening to you?
Does anyone else ever feel like they don’t feel “bad enough” to have OCD, or that they don’t feel “the right way” for it? Or like they’re just saying they have OCD as an excuse? Because i was so much better for like 3 weeks now and now im on my period and i started doubting again. So because of that im scared that i was feeling to good and that my fear is actually true.

Is this something OCD does?
Whenever anyone starts to feel like their thoughts are less triggering or they feel a moment of happiness/ relief OCD tells you that you want the thoughts back or you actually like having the thoughts and maybe thats just the person I really am? I feel like im going insane😢
