Just curious if anyone else has had a similar experience… But I’ve had different themes in the past that went away after a few weeks or months but my current theme has been here for over a year and I just don’t understand it. It then has me thinking that if it’s been here this long it must be real and maybe I was just repressing it and now this is my true self coming out.
Same thing happened to me when the thoughts lasted longer than I was used to. I thought it meant something. Like with rocd, once I feel better I can see, okay the worst thing it could happen is that I broke up with him. That would make me really sad, but it's not the end of the world. But with tocd it just hits different cause I feel I should change everything about my life and it's a nightmare. Idk if that's your theme (I looked at your profile lol) things get better eventually. I was great for almost 3 years and now that I left meds I'm having a relapse. But you will feel okay, nothing lasts forever 🙌
Thank you for sharing and for the encourgament. I have POCD so it’s SO hard to sit with uncertainty with this one since for obvious reasons its so horrible and disgusting and I truly couldn’t live with myself if this is real
