just want to let people know when u overcome a real event ocd theme it’s amazing! No matter what u did, ocd blows it way out of proportion. You probably didn’t know it was bad at the time and you were young and you’ve probably changed if you regret it that badly. You need to forgive yourself and everything changes!
Hey just wanted to say to whatever comment said “they’ve been punishing themselves for decades”or something like that, i was responding to ur comment as it got deleted. i just wanted to say u don’t deserve to shame yourself forever and ever for something u did. you are so much more than that one mistake and u deserve forgiveness and peace and it starts with forgiving yourself. you punish yourself by believing u don’t deserve good and it clearly shows how badly u regret it, i hope that u can find peace because u do deserve it
@Anonymous have u been struggling with the obsession for 40 years or it happened 40 years ago?
@Roccoxx555 i’m not sure why the anonymous comment keeps disappearing every time i am trying to respond to it
@Anonymous Hi no worries, i thought that somehow i was deleting them due to some glitch haha ik you may think you’ve done the worst thing in the world but as you said at the time you didn’t realise it was a bad thing! reassurance doesn’t help much tho anyways with real event ocd as i’m sure you know, it’s very difficult to perceive the reality of the situation when ur so stuck on it. you’ve probably read into this before but radical acceptance really helps with this and all themes!
@Anonymous same goes friend
👏🏻👏🏻❤️❤️
Thank you for this

@Anonymous if there was a time u didn’t obsess over it, this is what it will feel like when u overcome it, stay strong, the guilt hurts but u can be gentle and deserve forgiveness, would u resent a friend who did the same forever and ever and shame and tell them they don’t deserve anything, no u would understand they made a mistake and know that it doesn’t have to define them, there is so much more to u than whatever happened.
17f I have a lot of events, but my main and my worst one which is absolutely fucking diabolical was done when I was 14 and repeated when I was 16. Everytime I post something about real event ocd here people are like you are probably didn't do anything that bad, and when they hear what I did they are like yeah that's bad. Someone even asked me if I'm autistic cause "it's crazy how you didn't realize that the thing ypu were doing was wrong at this age." And I kinda agree, like it's fucked up It's just that my event is bad. Doesn't mean I don't have real event ocd. You can have a reocd over the event that was bad, it doesn't mean the event wasn't that bad or you don't have recod. It's just people always expect it to be something innocent and it's not Even a healthy person would feel guilty over it, it's just that I had ocd my whole life and it's making the guilt absolutely destructive, like to the point when I sometimes have a hard time breathing when I think about it, I lost more than a year of life to it, almost checked myself out couple of times if I wasn't so scared of pain/failure, the event haunts me in my dreams, it's in my head 24/7 and I will never able to forgive myself. That ocd. But the event itself was bad. So maybe i deserve it.
Due to real event ocd and past mistakes? I’ve been actively trying to work on this and try to accept and not pay too much attention to it but the confession thing has been bugging me but I’m also trying to accept that I don’t need to confess every single mistake I’ve made and we’ve all made mistakes Recently I’ve been wanting to work on myself and be more positive but because of my real events in childhood, I feel like I can’t live a normal life or deserve a normal life.
just wanted to see if others struggle with real event ocd really kicking their a**. i feel like my mind is a constant battleground of every mistake ive made and they feel so huge and life altering to me that it’s hard to continue going on in their wake. just wondering if anyone else feels this way too.
