I definitely know what this is like. I have the same Kind of OCD. Mine isn’t much on seeing things but more over analyzing my thoughts to make sure I’m not having a paranoid thought. It’s really strange how much this disorder can trick you. Stay strong and remember that if you actually did have schizophrenia, chances are you wouldn’t care or be worried about it. You would just experience it like it was a normal thing. People around you would notice probably before you did. Stay strong??
oh my god i relate!! i too have visual disturbances sometimes (my eyesight is also extremely bad) and constant anxiety also makes me hyperfocused on sounds (sometimes i cant tell if the sound i heard came from right beside me or miles away, because it changes when im anxious). a big part of ocd is about being unable to trust your own judgement, identity, true colors etc. but the thumb rule with schizophrenia is that a schizophrenic doesnt question or doubt the nature of their hallucinations or their paranoia. obviously this fact is twosided, because i know this can mean you could go on to worry if things you actually believe then ARENT real, but yeah. i love psychology and ive tried understanding schizophrenia, but all i know is that its probably hereditary, and if no one in your immediate family has it, then theres no cause for concern
I do actually experience visual disturbances from time to time. I get migraines with aura which causes me to see colors and spots and sometimes loose my vision completely for short periods of time. They used to really scare me but now when they’re there I kinda just say to myself “hello purple dot. Guess you ‘ll be around today.”
Yeah I had a illness where some of my eye nerves were eaten off so now that causes me to see certain things out of place, see double, or to see lights.
Thats relieved me
Does anyone else that suffers with schizophrenia ocd ever fear that they see things? I was on the computer and thought I saw an image of the devil pop up on the side of my laptop and started freaking out that I saw an image. I know that the image wasn’t real but I’m still freaking out because it’s making me think the schizophrenia is real
Ocd is really exhausting me in my relationship it’s like I’m paranoid abt this one girl for no reason and i keep having mental pictures of her and my man in my head get this tingly feeling so i feel like it’s gonna come true
Can ocd make you feel paranoid and see things?
