depersonalization
do people with ocd also experience derealisation/depersonalization? i feel it very often and sometimes i fear that i have bdp. i was diagnosed with ocd but i feel very uncertain
Yup I have, and ocd causes a lot of uncertainty, even about having Ocd, Ocd is know to erode your Sence of identity by giving you a fake one or none at all, if that makes sense, you just have to push through the bullshit ocd give you, and that fear of BPD, there’s a good chance ocd caused that too, Ik it’s hard but you can get through this, keep ya chin up, I’ll be praying for you, and I can relate to you aswell
@Shut up brain it was the first time someone said that they would pray for me, i appreciate it
@reb Ofc, I can relate, and god has the power to do anything, i run to him for help and I alwasy ask him to help others aswell, good luck, I know you can get through this
i’m going through this same thing
I have dealt with this a lot. I got diagnosed earlier this year and have suffered these symptoms as well. I see in this thread that you believe in God and appreciate prayers and I just want to let you know if it weren’t for God I wouldn’t be doing as well as I am now. Please know He knows OCD better than anyone and He has so much grace for you and you’re never condemned. I’ll be praying for you as well! Psalm 23 has helped a lot to connect back to reality. You are loved!
thank you so much! it means a lot
Is depersonalization a sign of OCD? Like questioning who you are?
Do people with existential ocd have this terrifying fear that people aren’t real and then they start to feel detached or dissociate only making it worse??? Along with this, do you fear that even though people can relate to you, what if that’s what you’re supposed to hear to help you move on, but really what your fearing is true??? I feel like I’m going insane. I sometimes get these questions, but they go away within minutes. However, these have been staying because I started asking the question “well if people aren’t real then hurt them”. I have other things ruminating in my head, but they’re either too hard to explain or will literally make me sound like I’m going crazy.
is the worst and it’s so scary
