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'm having awful stomach pain and nausea and it's really worrying me and scaring me
Does anyone else ever feel like they don’t feel “bad enough” to have OCD, or that they don’t feel “the right way” for it? Or like they’re just saying they have OCD as an excuse? Because i was so much better for like 3 weeks now and now im on my period and i started doubting again. So because of that im scared that i was feeling to good and that my fear is actually true.
I think when people are saying OCD is egodystonic is really triggering me and I was just wondering if this has happened to anyone else? I’m going through a really bad relapse and right now I’m trying to figure out if my thoughts are truly egodystonic, like I how do I know I won’t act on them, how can I trust my emotions and everything. I feel really confused and I feel like I don’t know who I am anymore or how I carry on with life because it’s so long and I’m so unsure of everything that’s going on in my head. Like how do I know that this is OCD and true desires/urges. I’m so confused.
