Hi everyone. I’m new to the app. Does anyone deal with trying to make sure things are done a certain way? I get upset at my spouse for not putting the dishes in the dishwasher correctly. And then I have to rearrange them the way I want them.
I completely understand that ! I am so difficult about change. I have do do things a certain way and if it’s not done that way it makes me upset and just makes my whole day different.
@keiarawolfe How do you get better at being ok with change?
New to this app. Do members find it helps, I'm worried I will start obsessing over things I hadn't thought about before when I read other people's OCD triggers...
A huge thank you to everyone. I am new to the app. I’m 28 years old and only recently discovered that my thoughts are a result of my OCD. It’s been so reassuring to hear other people managing the same thoughts I’ve been having.
Hi, I’m new to this app and newly diagnosed. Question for you all, What things did you normalize and do without a second thought that when diagnosed, you realized was actually your OCD? Mine was how concerned with germs I am. I hold my breath when I open a door so the rush of wind doesn’t infect my lungs from whatever is in the room. I thought everyone was really careful and concerned like me. But Ive learned it’s not normal the lengths I go to. What was yours?
