I can guarantee that personality test did nothing to take into account users with OCD. But that’s me reassuring you, which will help you feel relief temporarily but not actually help you recover. Why did you take a personality test? At the time did you recognize that this was another test/compulsion? I suggest sitting with the discomfort without trying to explain it or counteract it until the anxiety naturally dissipates. If it comes back: do it again. As they say, if you’re anxious: it’s working.

I feel you. My ocd loves to make metaphors, so i was gonna watch wreck it Ralph because it couldn’t POSSIBLY have anything to do with my ocd but it was all about hating being seen as a bad guy, being a good guy inside and wanting to change how people see you. That made me see all these similarities with him being trans or something and “breaking free”

I feel both of you on this. I hate when things that are just supposed to be “fun” end up becoming triggers. I guess at this point it’s a matter of how you look at it: is this a bad thing that happened that just confirms how bad you feel OR is it a new opportunity for exposure? If you believe the latter, take time to turn this scenario it’s an exposure exercise and use it. You’ll actually be helping yourself heal in the long run.

I’m struggling badly. I did something about a month ago which I now realize was probably testing, but what scares me is I feel like I liked it, which is horrifying. What’s even worse though, is after I did it, I was able to brush it off quickly and not be too bothered by it, as I was still very anxious on other thoughts I was experiencing. Now those thoughts are meaningless and THIS is what’s causing tremendous anxiety, but the fact that I didn’t feel anxiety about it after I did it seals the deal for me. I mean, did feel anxious and guilty after I did it, but I was able to dismiss it somewhat quickly, and I remember that memory came up a couple of times within the month after I did it but like I said, it hasn’t too hard to dismiss it. I really feel like it’s denial. The fact that I wasn’t that anxious about it and tried to justify it/dismiss it HAS to mean it’s been denial all this time, there just no way this is OCD :( Right now I’m anxious about the fact that I might’ve liked it AND the fact that I wasn’t anxious about it for a while. It is really just a torment to ruminate on, and I would never do that thing again, but the fact that I did it and felt like I liked it is beyond terrifying. I feel like I have proof now, I’m trying to figure out why I did it and what it meant, and why I wasn’t super anxious the following weeks after, I mean it WAS uncomfortable to think back on, but I feel like the fact I wasn’t super anxious about it means I was in denial or repressing my true self. I am so so scared. I’ve been worried about this for the past week and a half :( (This is all centered on the same theme btw.)

so like i was like researching spirituality and i saw that when spiritual awakening happens you kind of question yourself and your values then i saw a shadow work video and they said if you judge someone its because somewhere deep down youre like them , so im scared what if im a pedo and someone did a tarot reading on me once and i dont really remember the exact words but they mentioned something about how im avoiding the truth or something like that and the first thing that came to my mind was being a pedo and incest and recently ive been ignoring all the thoughts cause i was exhausted from doing so many compulsions then i got scared that if i go to therapy they will just tell me what i want to hear. im so scared
