I think so because yesterday I was ok and today I’m good, but the day before yesterday I was not ok. It’s very odd

I don’t really know what happened, I just was super upset that one day. I prayed that night to feel better and in the morning I did. (You don’t have to pray that’s just what I did) I just try to remember that I can make it through it, some days will be rough but that’s part of recovering. Trust me that day I felt like I was never going to get better but these past two days have been a blessing. I don’t know for sure if tomorrow will be good but I appreciate today for making me happier. Sometimes what helps me is just knowing what’s true, I know these thoughts feel real, but if they were true you wouldn’t get upset about them you would know they’re true. I don’t know if that helps but it helps me.❤️

Why do thoughts feel real? And what to do when they arrive? I know to accept but what does that look like

That’s something I don’t really know to be honest. I don’t know why they feel so real. They just do. They always pop up in my head and for a second I really do think they’re real, it makes me upset sometimes. What I try to do is just know, know in my heart that it’s not true. Also when it comes up don’t think about it to much, sometimes we get to much into our own heads. Just try to know when those thoughts pop up that it’s ocd.

I have a question My OCD has felt almost invisible the past few weeks and now that is starting to stress me out a lot. Right now I am at a point in my treatement where I was asked if I would like to take medication. I told my therapist this week that I would like to try the medication based on how miserable I feel in during OCD flare ups. But now my brain always tells me that I only go throught this treatement etc. to seek attention and that I am just dramatic and should be ashamed of myself for wanting to take this medication. So now I am doubting if I should take the medication or not. Any advice?

Sometimes I notice my intrusive thoughts cause me to spiral and sometimes not. I've been practicing ERP for quite a while so it's a bit easier for me to not spiral. But I wonder why that happens. Does anyone else have it? Also I'm on medication idk if that plays a role.

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.
