Anyone relate?
I feel so detached from myself and the world around me sometimes. Like I’m questioning everything, it’s pretty scary. Anyone deal/dealt with this?

Yeah it can be really hard sometimes. I’ve learned to agree with the thoughts and just carry on and appreciate life
I have felt this way as well. Almost like you’re watching everything from a movie? It’s derealization, which can be a symptom of CPTSD.
@Tiffany I’ve left like this before about two years ago, it wasn’t fun but it eventually went away. How’d u deal with it?
Yeah, I get this when my OCD flares up. Your mind is playing tricks on you. It sucks and feels horrible, but if you do your best to let it be there it’ll pass on it’s own in time.
I started having intrusive thoughts about my sexuality when I got into a relationship with my ex and I wondered if it would seemingly go away but it hasn’t and I find myself ruminating about it constantly especially before or during my period. Has anyone else felt with this?
I think when people are saying OCD is egodystonic is really triggering me and I was just wondering if this has happened to anyone else? I’m going through a really bad relapse and right now I’m trying to figure out if my thoughts are truly egodystonic, like I how do I know I won’t act on them, how can I trust my emotions and everything. I feel really confused and I feel like I don’t know who I am anymore or how I carry on with life because it’s so long and I’m so unsure of everything that’s going on in my head. Like how do I know that this is OCD and true desires/urges. I’m so confused.
Hello does anyone get such severe panic and anxiety that comes along with bad intrusive thoughts. Then the thoughts give you more panic because you feel you may act on them? Then I worry I’m going crazy, can anyone relate? Thank for reading
