You have to stop focusing on naming every theme you have. All themes are treated the same way, always with erp

Yeah I’ve done that so many times. I’ve also tried to get someone to come with me so they can be on reassure me. It’s crazy how real it feels. I sometimes think I’m making it worse by going back and checking or constantly looking into the mirrors. I just wish I can be normal and not think about that stuff

I had this these last year. It also tried to get me a few months ago but I was able to get it under control before it got bad.

What did you go through?

Afraid I had hit someone and not remember it. Having to constantly check my car for damage. Looking up hit and run on Google any where I had drove. Got to the point I quit driving for a while. If I would hot a bump or something I would have to turn around and go back and check.

That’s what I’m exactly going through. It’s so hard.. so frustrating. How did you handle it ?

I just had to constantly remind myself it was my ocd. I had to make myself get in the car and drive even if it was just around the block and stop giving into compulsions.. like checking the rear view mirror, checking my car and stuff.. it was definitely hard

Yes me too, I would take an Uber just to avoid driving, I’d clock in and wait to see if my supervisor would say anything when I’d be late, i completely understand what you mean it’s exhausting not to mention the amount of gas that gets wasted from circling all the time

Me too I agree -when I circle around I make it worse sometimes because I start questioning every street , I end up going down streets I didn’t even need to drive down so instead of circling two blocks now it’s four! Just try to tell yourself logically if you hit someone you’d really know, you’d have damage on your car you would hear the person scream most likely, at the very least you’d have a broken mirror that’s what im trying to do it’s not a great solution but sometimes im able to get home without completely going crazy

Hey guys just wondering if anyone suffers from this type of OCD. I feel a big struggle to even begin things because it doesn’t feel right or if I resume things it doesn’t feel right. Anyone have any advice ? Thank you

I was driving when I passed by 2 kids playing with a ball in their front yard, their ball made it to the street, I slowed down and continued my route and looked back to to make sure they’re ok and when I got home I started getting intrusive thoughts that I ran over the kid 😢

I think i have ocd. Two years ago i had a few panic attack and person related obsessions that i couldnt get over. Now since i’m free of college and work i have an intrusive thought about hitting myself. It is panicking and i don’t know what to do. I have already acted twice on the thoughts but now my mind says i have to hit harder… i know it sounds weird, but does anyone have any tips etc..? :)
