how ocd can appear in different ways
just in case anyone is confused at this part of their journey to recovery too :) i am at the point with my ocd where i am simply done with all of the questioning but that doesn’t mean that it didn’t catch me off guard sometimes. where my mind is clearer, my brain just wants me to ruminate even if there are no triggers for my intrusive thoughts. it’s funny because it even says things - now that my gender and sexuality themes have cleared more so than they have previously - like “that’s a bit boring, a normal life” etc. and it’s honestly funny at this point. it is truly trying its best to keep me miserable. it has almost got ahold of me a few times but that is only normal. the progress that you have made is still valid! ocd is strong sometimes but you are stronger <3
