anxiety curves in ocd are actually pretty weird. ive learned a thing or two about them from experience that i think can explain a bit when we develop a theme of ocd we actually get mad amounts of anxiety and we start thinking alot more about every single thing, so our idle brain actually is in fight or flight mode even tho we really doesnt have a reason. it takes a bit of time for brain to get back to normal.. are you on any ssri meds by any chance?
Interesting! I am on SSRI’s!
Same
Exactly how I feel!
Yes! OCD often makes the sufferer feel like they are alone, isolated, and that no one else can possibly understand this experience. Please know that those are lies that OCD tells. You can choose to not believe them. Sometimes people report feeling like things are not real and that they are in a daze- the stress from OCD can be overwhelming at times. Please know that you are not alone in this. The NOCD community is here for you.

I’m not gonna lie ... sometimes I feel like I have no control over what I think and feel. Idk if that happens to anyone else but I just feel plain crazy now. I’m not hallucinating or hearing stuff but like... it’s like my mind is just throwing all kinds of intrusive thoughts and my emotions are mixed
Ugh I keep overthinking my existence again!!!! I’m just thinking and thinking about being in my body and how weird it all is. I just want to relax :(
One time I think that I should live and everhthing is actually okay, but then I start to think again that I am so weird, crazy and I should end my life. :) and it's so weird and I have a feelings of derealization often, it's like I am not completely there and because of that I can't think about the things I need to work on and I am scared that I will be always like that.
