I get this way in relation to relationship OCD. It's exacerbated when I'm on my period. Idk how to get rid of it, but exposure therapy taught me to sit with it. It never inherently goes away, just gets quieter/louder.
Is this even a possibility? I'm not even sure if it's an OCD issue, GAD, or maybe a lack of something else, but I'm just constantly feeling off. Even if I'm not getting constant intrusive thoughts, I just feel on edge all the time? Is there anyone who's been able to overcome this? It bothers me so much š
Hey there everyone, first I would like to say I am very grateful for every single one of you on this platform and it feels so much better knowing that I can be heard. Iāve been hyperaware of my swallowing for 1-2 month. I feel like I have so much saliva in my mouth and I have to swallow and swallow. I feel the urge to swallow even I donāt NOTHING in my mouth, so I just swallow air. This has been really overwhelming and I feel like I can be so easily latched to other body part of my part. For example, I was conscious about my blinking and breathing for a few days, and now I get so anxious when I heard a weird sound my ears make after each sentence I speak. Is this somatic ocd or health concern ocd? I am so helpless and having a hard time to shift my attention. Does anyone have any suggestions or just words of encouragement would really help me at this moment. I REALLY appreciate your help. šš Thank you !
I am not sure if this is something thatās specific to ocd, but the ocd definitely has something to do with it if itās not an ocd thing. Every emotion I feel (more specifically sadness, disappointment, etc.) feels like itās amplified by 100000x. Any little thought that even makes me slightly let down literally makes me feel so upset to where I just want to lay in bed all day because Iām so bummed out. Hereās a recent example of this. This sounds so stupid I know but I recently went to a concert for a band that I have a lot of nostalgia tied to. I knew I would have a good time at the concert but i literally was in awe the entire time by all the emotion i felt and how good the concert, singing, performance and everything was. They even came so close to us and were singing there for about 20 minutes like within 20 feet of me (and Iām pretty sure one of them saw me but i might be delusional). in the moment i was literally just thinking like wow in this moment were here together like they could be anywhere in the world right now and here they are within 20 feet of my face. The point is I havenāt been able to stop with this hyper fixation on them and I canāt even look at my concert videos and looking at other peoples makes me so jealous and sad for some reason yet I canāt stop watching videos of them because itās makes me so sad/so happy at the same time. I know people might say this is just post concert depression but this has gone way beyond that but this is typical for me to feel it this deeply like sick to my stomach. thatās a common thing for me where my hyper fixations sometimes make me sad where I just donāt wanna do anything except lay down and stare at the wall. this is very hard to explain and I hope it makes sense. This also could be a part of my depression but Iām not sure. Anyways please respond if you relate/have answers and sorry this is so long and wordy!š
