It honestly depends on the individual. Each person has been through different life experiences, therefore, certain types of OCD can affect someone in difference levels. I must say, OCD in general is very hard to live with. For me, any type of sexual OCD mixed with real events OCD torments me so much. But to another individual, HOCD is their absolute torment. No matter what OCD you have, just keep going and don’t let this mental illness limit you from having a peaceful life!

I think whatever theme you’re currently stuck with you will judge as the worst to live with. I’ve had so many themes over the years and I always think ‘this is the worse yet’ but when you’re in the midst of ocd you feel that the theme you’re experiencing is the worst one and cannot be tamed. I don’t think it does us any favours comparing which is hard to live with. The theme you’ve got now has stuck for a reason because of your core values or uncertainity around a certain thing. So for you to be living with whatever subtype at the moment you’re doing a amazing job! Keep persevering 👍🏼

IVE been thru hocd,soocd,pocd,and zocd. Pocd and zocd are my current ones, by far I’d say zocd and pocd just because I don’t get to enjoy certain things like how I used too. But this is just me, it’s different for everyone. But it also does depend, maybe I feel these are the worst ones because those are the two I’m currently struggling with?

What's the hardest part about living with OCD that others don't see?
OCD isn’t just about compulsions—it’s a mental battle that can be completely exhausting. The anxiety, doubt, and pressure to "get it right" can feel unbearable, especially when others don’t understand what’s happening beneath the surface. What’s the hardest part about living with OCD that others don’t see?

Messy Behavior with OCD
I never heard about people with OCD who have messy living conditions. Maybe this is why it took so long to accept my diagnosis. Although I really dont like how OCD is percieved at by the majority of people, I feel like Im weird or something because I dont fit into that stereotype. I understand that a lot of people with OCD have this issue, but why do I feel so different? If anybody else has/had this belief, what helps with feeling more comfortable? Everytime my mom points out my room, and how its messy- Its like I feel so lazy and useless. So then I often plan out everything I was going to do, step by step, always having a reasoning behind everything, because logic always comforts me. When I start tidying up my room, I go full out (Sheets, Laundry, Clorox, Candles, Vaccuming, Then I start going through the guinea pigs cage to rearranging all of their stuff) Yet always somewhere after doing a few things, I start feeling disgusting and almost shameful of myself. 99% of the time I end up laying on my floor sobbing, noting every little thing about my room. How my furiniture doesnt match, how i would rather have solid floor like hardwood or vinyl instead of the carpet, usually things i cant change… and then barely anything gets done in my room. I start to have a meltdown and often dont take care of myself even more afterwards. A piece of me feels like my thoughts are just me being a spoiled brat and wanting everything i dont have- meanwhile others dont even have a roof over their head. The other piece of me is just tired, just emotionally exaughsted. Please comment any thoughts or recomendations to maybe improve motovation and attitude towards doing long tasks.
