Is anyone else experiencing or is it me?

I wanted to tell people on here before I tell any of my friends since they’d make fun of me for it. I’ve been having the intrusive thought that I’m going to pee myself, and for past few hours I’ve been going back and forth from the toilet to my bed, it’s nighttime and tbh everything feels like a blur so for me I could have went to the toilet twice or ten times and I wouldn’t have known. My mums being suspicious of me and she’s now wondering why I’m going to the toilet so often, I don’t wanna tell I’m not ill I’m just scared I might piss myself.... and no I haven’t pissed myself since I was a kid it’s like a random fear that’s come out of nowhere. I’m scared it might be getting worse, like my compulsions were mostly internal and now slowly it’s becoming external and I’m actually starting to see real life consequences. Fuck my life

@Kay739 I have actually. Ironically when I watched it I was like why would anyone be worried about shitting themselves.... now I understand

I used to have urination anxiety, where I was obsessively afraid that having to pee often meant something was wrong with me. I was peeing every half hour when I was awake and several times during the night. Turns out feeling anxious can make you have to pee a lot, so it was the perfect storm!

New intrusive thoughts

So, if I'm retelling a story or relaying information to someone, after I'm done speaking, my brain will send me thoughts like, "What if you lied? You might have told the story wrong! You're lying!" I've started second-guessing myself, even when I know I'm not lying or telling the story wrong😭 This has also bled into twisting my intentions behind certain actions... For example, the other day, I'd been babysitting my younger brothers. I'd gone to use the restroom and thought, "What if the door isn't locked or closed all the way?" Because this has happened once in the past. Turns out, it didn't lock correctly, and one of my little brothers almost walked in on me, but luckily, I shut the door in time, and we laughed it off. But then, I kept getting thoughts like, "You knew that would happen, and you didn't double-check! You wanted that to happen and for him to walk in!" :( I know this isn't true, but it's so annoying! Has anyone dealt with this? If you have, do you have any advice on how to deal with these thoughts?

I don’t know what’s wrong

I can’t stop crying. My thoughts are going insane, they’re so fast I can’t keep up. I want to tell everyone around me what’s happening (my family doesn’t even know about my OCD). I can’t seem to resist compulsions today. I’m freaking out. I want to give up. I feel like I’m suffocating in whatever is going on. I feel like I need to go to a hospital. I don’t know how to ask for help. I don’t feel okay. I don’t understand this at all. It feels like I took some random drug. I’m really scared I’m sorry, I am so panicked. It’s embarrassing but I feel so desperate for help right now I feel crazy

New obsession

I’ve noticed this new obsession with having to pee right before bed, like even if I have to pee a little I can’t fall asleep until my bladder is completely empty. Anyone else have a problem like this or knows how to cope?
