I have had this fear of schizophrenia for so long so I definitely know what you’re going through. It’s so frustrating. You brain makes you believe that you’ll actually get it or you actually have it. It’s so scary. That’s just the OCD trying to trick you because it feeds off doubt. Stay strong. Remind yourself that it’s OCD. Not trying to give you reassurance but if you actually had borderline personality disorder you probably wouldn’t know you had it. Leave those diagnoses to real doctors. You will get through this❤️

Omg lol thought I was the only one. But I've had the thought I'm autistic for years now so I actually think I am I don't think that's my ocd. But I've thought I've had all sorts before

I definitely hop around to as many diagnoses as possible because I convince myself that it cant possibly be just OCD, that I'm too bad off for that... it's so incredibly frustrating

I have definitely felt that it wasn’t OCD. I was actually convinced it wasn’t. Just because it felt like it was something worse but that’s just how OCD tricks you. It wants you to believe that something else is wrong. It wants you to ruminate and obsess that there is a small change that you could be wrong. That small chance is what makes it feel like the end of world. I heard someone say that if you start to wondering if it’s OCD or not, it’s definitely OCD. It’s so hard because it’s exhausting fighting yourself all the time. Stay strong?

Mental compulsions/ rumination
So hard to not engage the thoughts because even though it's from the "past" (i don't even know if im remembering things correctly and it kills me) and i can't change it, I just NEED to prove it to myself that it didn't happen this way. If you'd asked me questions maybe a few months ago, I would have been able to lucidly explain things. Now I just feel like I'm in a constant swarm of thoughts, not knowing if anything is real. If my brain is to be trusted. Wish I could just get hypnosis to forget

Finding something new to bash myself about
So recently i had really obsessive thoughts about something and once i got over it i kept bringing back more stuff to make myself feel like a bad person. Why am i doing this? Why do i need to look for something else to burden someone with once they have forgiven me

HELP PLS I NEED ADVICE
Ii spoke w my bf this weekend and he mentioned that he has thoughts just like me, but his don't bother him like me. I then felt a lot better and he tried dissecting one of his thoughts like I usually do and realized it felt more real for him after. That made me realize that none of my thoughts were ever true and I blew them up. However, yesterday I had a thought ab “wait wut if you liked that one guy? How dare you bc youre supposed to love your bf and not secretly like someone else” and treated it as I usually did bc I accidentally wanted to see if it was true but didn't rlly but I would check to see if it was there and now that thought feels so so so real now and I feel really bad how do Ik it's not real? I feel so bad and guilty bc lividly this makes 0 sense but it feels so prominent. It felt pretty real when it happened yesterday too. And now I feel awful bc how is it possible after my clarity the other day? Why does it feel so prominent 😞😞😞
