morning anxiety
does anyone else wake up in the morning with a big spurt of anxiety about their ocd theme?? maybe even have it pop up in their dreams??

Yes it’s the first thing that goes through my brain every morning. It’s a “I’m gay” or “I’m bi” thought and even in my dreams I feel like I’m lying about things. It’s wild.
Constantly it’s awful :(
Unfortunately yes! I wake up and immediately remember to start obsessing and having anxiety - it’s the worst
Absolutely! Dreams and the morning is my worst time
I do this pretty much every morning 😭
I always wake up full of dread and fear. My anxiety is through the roof two seconds after I open my eyes. Someone on this app gave me a similar insight once I believe. But I think anxiety is just the urge to ruminate. About what? It probably doesn’t matter, as long as I can torture myself, as OCD loves. Does anyone else relate to this or agree maybe?
Anyone else with HOCD get thoughts of like "people in denial try to distract themselves" or anything along those lines when just trying to move on from the thoughts. Having a pretty bad episode this morning at least anxiety wise.
Does anyone else get fixated on one “topic” with their ocd?? like for me trains and guns are mine. like i’m scared of trains and im scared to be around guns because that’s what triggers my ocd and makes me convince me that that is the way to go. i literally worry myself into thinking im going to sh*t myself when i don’t even have a gun but my ocd convinces me. idk if im explaining it good, but its a real struggle. just need some tips & advice
