Whats the name/brand if you dont mind?
@sayes2str8gers Natrol Relax+ Ultimate Calm Mood and Stress capsules!
@arielcerda Are they safe to take? Like are there any side effects?
@Chihuahuaprincess supplements don’t have side effects since they are all natural! though you should ask a doctor first if you are taking any other medications or are pregnant, if not then they should be fine to take
@arielcerda Oh okay cool, thank you so much 😊
@Chihuahuaprincess of course! ☺️
Where can you buy them?
@taboo_brain19 i got mine from hyvee but you can get it at target or walmart!
@arielcerda Is the supplement really used for mental health?
@taboo_brain19 supplements are really good for mental health and for just your body in general. like i take vitamin d to boost my immune health. the supplement that i take that helps with my ocd has L-theanine and ashwagahnda which are plants that help to calm you down and for stress and anxiety. L-theanine is mostly known for helping with intrusive thoughts. you can check out the supplement online if you want to do more research! It’s called Natrol Relax + Ultimate Calm Mood and Stress capsules
@arielcerda I will look into it. Thank you for the help!😊
@taboo_brain19 of course:)
Has anyone ever just felt weird? It’s hard to explain but I just feel weird lately. I usually suffer with harm OCD and I feel like lately I’m not reacting to things I normally would. There’s certain things that will trigger me a little but then other times (like over the last few days) it’s like I feel nothing. I’ll get thoughts and because I don’t feel the physical sensation in my chest or get very emotional like I normally would it’s weird to me. Does this mean I’m liking the thoughts now? Or like I’m comfortable with those actions happening? I’m so confused. Has anyone ever gone through this?
These past few days I was fine. Minimal intrusive thoughts ,no anxiety etc(to add I'm on medication so maybe it's starting to work although it barely is 2 weeks) and today I got a sudden wave of anxiety and it started latching on some thoughts like" what if I'm in denial and I wanna break up with my bf? And what if erp doesn't work for me because I actually wanna break up with my bf?" But they didn't really stay long usually those thoughts would make me spiral for days or so, now they lasted for some hours. And now I'm trying to trigger myself into being anxious again because if I don't it means I don't have ocd and if I don't have ocd it means I don't love my bf and if I don't love my bf it means I have to break up. Idk if it makes sense but the lack of anxiety makes me wonder if I actually have ocd or not.
I’ve started ERP therapy with a really great therapist, and I haven’t gave into my compulsions but I still have anxiety and yesterday my brain was telling me that people were zombies😭 is this normal?
