I hate ocd, why does my past affect me so much
This is more of a rant/vent so Tw for (csa,pocd,past SH,) just triggering in general but idk what’s wrong with me im entirely desperate for closure and or getting out of this mess idk if its healthy or rlly. Ik i made a long discussion earlier but there is so many layers not (in chronological ord really)to this issue idk what to do. I really dislike having ocd its so gross and feels violating like i feel so gross when I actually realize what im thinking and my eye twitches constantly and my face gets all tingly like im about to throw up. Ik its ocd because my last theme was similar I thought that everyday was gonna be my last. But really So far my recent themes really have had me either become stressed tired, hopeless or un interested in things i like because my obsession was the only thing that mattered so my last theme was really bad. Pocd even feels just as bad even worse. with the theme of death and health i came to be fine with. But now its like how can u just deal with thoughts like that and be fine. I cant live every day thinking im gonna hurt someone. And To prevent myself from going insane i just let the thoughts go on but im just there and it’s happening and i don’t like it ,and then its like I like those thoughts don’t I etc. and its like im shaking my head back n forth and my brain is telling me horrible things .and my body involuntarily acts for any actions i do out of nervousnesses and discomfort which makes it worse too. I hate making sure that im not a ped which makes me feel even more disgusted. its like im desperate in my head to ask myself for forgiveness. With this a lot of things in my childhood are now coming up and really make me remember that that event actually happened and I thought it was normal. The first instance something ever traumatic that started this is happened when i was a kid i didn’t realize and i had to have another adult stop the kid cause i was just there confused. And i used to sit in class and remember these situations randomly. And thought it was just an accident im fine now. And as i got older only 7 really i became extremely hypersxual and kids would tell me about more topics I didn’t really know and i would just go along with it and think its ok if they can talk about it like its nothing. Off topic a bit but Its so weird cause I never liked liking people younger or ppl shorter than me cause it felt weird and wrong its not but in reality, but it did feel like it and this one girl i had a crush on for a bit was younger and i got really grossed out when i realized i would be 18 one day and shes still 17 but were only a few days apart tho. Also I didn’t think me being this way at 7 was bad in the past but then when my mom would got really mad at me for looking up sex related topic it hit me i had a problem and it didn’t really do much the more stressed and upset i got the more it got worse. I remember before my 13th birthday i got in trouble again for the same issue my mom said I could become a predator or that my actions could influence my sister that scared the shit outta me so i got mad at myself for not being able to change since i kept being this way since 7 and indulge in sh (not anymore physically not sure mentally ) she said i was manipulative and narcissistic when she found out. I never really felt anything afterwards but guilt and shame. I became super reliant on the internet as a way to relive stress or escape from real world issues and that probably fed into my issues as well. So Recently when I discovered twitter and realized that some how it allowed people to post anything without getting in trouble and seeing that peds were everywhere was gross and mix that in with my hypersxal issues it made me so afraid of what my mom said and it stayed in the back of my mind I’ve felt guilty and afraid if i ever stumbled upon content that would make me feel gross and like i was a bad person cause i was already in a state of stress. i felt so much more guilt than ever.And because of that my pocd has honestly been super shit because being told i am manipulative and narcissistic are traits of peds and its getting really hard to combat these thoughts and make me think i actually am one and its so hard to explain my situation and my past experiences without feeling like everything i say is an excuse to my thoughts. Talking about it so easily on here makes me feel awful too (but it so badly feels like i need to) and really bad like im not making excuses i just don’t know wth is wrong with me and my desperation even makes it gross too like im begging to be accepted for something so vile. I have to be so careful with what i say but even more so it makes me seem more like one of them cause ik those people use that to abuse issues like pocd and other illnesses to seem “normal”. And the thing is I don’t feel normal i feel disgusting the thing is im not and can never feel normal again and I genuinely want these things to stop. EvenToday i felt like my friend didn’t like me anymore and knew about what i thought because she’s very nonchalant in how she speaks and i was just trying to keep the mood up so I didn’t start crying right there. But,Crying even makes me feel awful my mom told me something along the lines of crying doesn’t affect anyone and isn’t valid or she’ll give me something to cry about . I’ve cried for forgiveness from her once when she got mad at my irregular in sex interest for a kid when i was in trouble because no matter what she wouldn’t believe me and usually then thats when i would try to hurt myself out of regret and then she would call me a manipulator and that i would end up like her brother. Ik the correlation is weird but crying makes me feel worse for some reason like im manipulative and my actions are truly the worst and I deserve to suffer for it and if i try to do it myself im even more manipulative. Also that when i cry its extremely invalid and not normal. I feel like this whole thing was useless to write but i feel a need to explain my tendencies or else ill feel guilty for anyone feeling pity for me of accepting the fact i have pocd because they don’t question it cause how do u not know im lying i don’t want u too but I don’t even know myself. Like im very good at analyzing my behavior and emotions but my emotions are not and i feel extremely detached from being able to actually show my true intentions. Like i wrote this with the intent of a small discussion that turned into a story a whole essay even idk really . Though im still afraid that if someone reads this they’ll be like yeah ur behaviors are that of a ped and ur just a manipulative ass who is using pocd as an excuse and ur so far down in ur lies you don’t even realize it. Ive been called so many things by people close to me like a manipulator, narcissistic, pathological liar etc that i sorta believes some things and that it bleeds into my issues with ocd and just twist my brain. The only way i can try and make sure or at least come to terms for the time im not doing or acting such so is comparing themes and how similar my actions from what I remember. Im so sorry for this being incredibly long and redundant and stupid and probably irrational behavior just yeah 😞.
