OCD?
I use to have the whole everyday OCD stuff, but now it's here from time to time, so I think it might not be OCD cause it's not here 24/7, it's just here maybe once a day or something like that

OCD doesn’t have to be present 24/7, but it does have to be persistent to receive a diagnosis. So this is great news! It means you’re getting better and making progress. Be proud of yourself!

@Perzibal Obsessions and compulsions take up more than 1 hour per day, according to the diagnostic criteria.

@Perzibal I’d suggest you talk to a doctor about this!

Is this happening to you?
Does anyone else ever feel like they don’t feel “bad enough” to have OCD, or that they don’t feel “the right way” for it? Or like they’re just saying they have OCD as an excuse? Because i was so much better for like 3 weeks now and now im on my period and i started doubting again. So because of that im scared that i was feeling to good and that my fear is actually true.

I fear i don't have ocd
Cause I don't have those Extreme cases where I Need to wash myself 100 times, or check things like light, all I have are my thoughts.

Anyone else has this happen?
Anyone else just have days where they feel more calm and don’t have as many intrusive thoughts? But then later at night time it just comes back so you only had relief even for a little bit 😞😞 I feel like even when I’m not having my OCD send me intrusive thoughts, I always have a feeling in my stomach that something is wrong/off or a sense of doom. I always just feel on edge and anxious as if my mind is always preparing itself for the next horrifying intrusive thought to torment me with ugh 🫠
