Overthinking
I hate how OCD makes me overthink every situation that I have a problem with. Like bro it’s not that deep chill out 🤬😭

Yep! Along those lines…Does anyone deal with OCD in relationships where you’re constantly ritualizing making sure people aren’t mad at you? I constantly ask “are you mad at me?” or I’ll go back and over-clarify things I said and people are always like “dude I didn’t even notice you said something wrong” or “i didn’t even think about it that way”. It’s relieving but I feel like it’s just the OCD getting what it wants out of the ritual. Making this a post too. Chime in✌🏼
FOR REAL
Seriously
Couldn’t agree more :(
Same here
Lately I’m at the point that when s thought, worry, feeling starts looping in my head I kind of look at it and remind myself… it’s ok, it’s just my stupid ocd… it kind of works….. gonna keep practicing awareness and see how it goes… I’m onto you you dumbass spoiled attention seeking insidious fucking IRRITATING STUPID OCD. My ocd reminds me of the people I don’t want to bump into in the supermarket….. see them and conveniently change course…. Anyway let’s all have a great day and kick our ocd to the curb!!!!
WHERE WAS THIS ABILITY IN HIGHSCHOOL?! When I needed it to strike….nah nvm to be honest it is what saved my school life actually I think we have a tendency to over analyze everything, to overthink everything and make “logical connections” between stuffs. The last part is the most important I think, it’s OCD’s best friend because it means it can create an infinite amount of new fear for us lol
Today I was officially diagnosed, and a lot of my thoughts all day have been “man, what if I actually don’t have it and I exaggerated my symptoms or something.” I had this thought especially because I hadn’t had a really bad episode in a while. But then sure enough, I had a little episode tonight. I feel like I might’ve brought it upon myself, at least in small part. Having difficulty separating OCD paranoia from real life problems to be considered with at the moment 👎🏻 Gonna sleep on it! 🙏🏻❤️
I've gotten diagnosed with OCD and I'm in therapy. But I'm worried that I don't have OCD/that I got misdiagnosed. And recently I'm worried that I've just gotten myself into a habit of thinking of dirty minded or just plain old terrible things after I see/hear certain things because I feel like I need to prove I have OCD or else I'm faking(sometimes this goes away). Or that I'm just mimicking symptoms of ocd to cope with real problems I may have and that im just really deep into denial. I don't know...I'm just so tired. I mean, what if I really am what I think I am and this is my brains only way of coping? I don't even really feel anything towards most of the thoughts anymore either I just know they go against my values and I don't want them. I don't know if that's because I'm so mentally exhausted, I just don't care, or that the thoughts are true and I'm comfortable with them.
That’s kinda my question. All my thoughts feel so realistic and so now I doubt if they are ocd and if I just can’t make my mind up about something and I’m using ocd as an excuse or something idc I feel like this post is word vomit.
