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
Idk what to do anymore. I had an attack from 🍃 in 2021. I couldn’t feel anything and it all felt odd. It’s been 4 years! 4 years!!!! And I still have attacks. But in the past 2 years it hasn’t been anything visual really. I can see everyone, I just can’t feel connected to me still nor my surroundings. My head keeps repeating. “You’re not real, nothings real”. Even tho ik I can see my mom and dad and nothings distorted. I don’t get it! I’m scared. Is this the start of psychosis? I was diagnosed with ocd when I was 13 and it got really bad after smoking once. I feel alone. I know where I am. But I feel out of place, and for some reason I keep thinking nothings real in my head over and over again. I feel so alone. I want to be a nurse but I’m like I’m useless. Nothing feels right. Can anybody help me, or has anyone experienced this!
Lately I’ve been having some thoughts like “i don’t feel real” and I feel disconnected and not been feeling like myself, I don’t know if this is just ocd because I do get thoughts about life and they don’t really cause much panic.. or could this be something else
hi so my therapist & i were talking about how scared i am of schizophrenia being a misdiagnosis, i'm not diagnosed with OCD even though i suffer from all of the symptoms more than anything else right now but she took as an example people that could kill me; when something was on the news a few months back i got EXTREME paranoia fearing that i could be killed next, my therapist said it was a delusion **but** deep down i know they can't actually get me but i'm just afraid if i speak up about it that they will get me. for example if i always say "nothings bad gonna happen" something bad is gonna happen. i don't really know deep down but i also do i'm just so lost like ???? i also always keep obsessing over it, but i also heard feeling watched & scared people are gonna do something is OCD, i'm just confused. is it still a delusion? or am i misdiagnosed? i've had psychosis multiple times but it was never negative or bad i think except losing friends i'm tired & drained. i'm sorry for constantly mentioning it but **i'm not scared of schizophrenia i'm just scared that i have a misdiagnosis** i put a TW for sure incase it triggers people with schizo OCD ! !
