Does being sick trigger your ocd?
Everytime I feel nauseated or dizzy or heart palpitations, it triggers me to go on Google. Its like I cant sit in the discomfort of my body.

Oh boy. 110%. If I think I’m coming down with something it’ll even trigger a panic attack and my heart starts racing. Learning to live with then uncertainty is so difficult. Hang in there. So many of us battle this as well.
Thanks you too. Its so unbearable and I have a fear of fainting so when I get dizzy it sets it off. I've never fainted before!
Same here
I have HOCD and ROCD and it makes me wanna puke all day I live with my husband
I woke up this morning feeling like all weird, I went on Google to look at escape rooms and my ocd of corse kept saying there’s kids there and I felt groinal responses and actually stopped on the post that I thought was a child to look at them and feel aroused. My heart sank and now I need to wash my whole body and myself please can ocd do this
My current obsession is around mental health, specifically that I have undiagnosed Bipolar 2. Any changes in my mood are triggering and in my compulsive googling to make myself feel better (never works lol) I discovered that ocd and bipolar are linked in like 10-20% of cases?! So now I feel worse. Anyone else experience mental health fears?
