Question: what is the worst type of OCD.

Definitely Real event OCD. I thought maybe it was only me, but I found on a lot of OCD forums from people who had all kinds of OCD themes and types that they find Real event OCD the hardest to deal with. It's because you obsess over something that really happened. It isn't only some disturbing intrusive thought or false memory, it's clear as day it happened and you know it. Your OCD takes that event as a proof you're something you are so afraid to be and tortures you with guilt, but at the same time you can't say to yourself "it's just an intrusive thought" because it's not, it's a real memory. It's extremely hard to recover from Real event OCD.

They ALL suck because it attacks what we love and value the most. For example, imagine a kinder garten teacher suffering from POCD, or an engaged person to the love of their life suffer from HOCD. Doubt is hellish no matter what. However, in my personal experience, nothing has brought me more pain than Real Event OCD since it is about something that actually happened.

Whatever your current theme is, of course!

i think all ocd themes are horrible! whatever theme you have, its only there because thats what’ll hurt the most. its like a personal hell. ive dealt with a few themes this past year, and have always gone around wishing that i had some other theme that wasnt as “bad”, and actually kind of always wished it would b sexual orientation ocd because i thought sexual orientation doesnt matter to me, i’ll love who i love. but now ive starting having some of those intrusive thoughts too, and its literally just as horrible as the other things! its not that im homophobic or think its a worst case scenario that i’m something else than what i feel i am, its just that constant freaking doubt about yourself. i know im straight and maybe i could be into other things, but my whole life ive been hypersexual and obsessed with dudes, and now im doubting even that! its the whole idea of constantly fighting those thoughts trying to be all “hey i know who i am!! stop trying to comvince me otherwise!” id say its the feeling that doubt about yourself brings you, and youre just not set about anything in your life anymore.

I deal with harm and existential by the worse I’ve ever faced. And I’ve faced many

I think each type is! Sometimes Ive thought to myself that I wish I had another theme but when I see posts of other themes I see they are hurting as bad as I do sometimes. Im suffering from ROCD right now and for me it has been hell. You just dont know if these are your true feelings or not, and worse is accepting the fact that they might be. There are days in which this will even make my partner seem as a bad person when in reality he is not or sometimes it is SO convincing that breaking up seems like the only solution but even considering that hurts a lot. So idk I think each type sucks a lot in its own way but maybe I think that because I havent experienced other types of ocd
