Medicine will not help...your mind is just looking for anything to trigger you and when there is nothing it tries to convince you that there is something but you cant remember it...expose yourself to this situation and say yes i am ready to accept uncertainty...just imagine if everything in life was with certainty...do you think you ll settle for it? No you by human nature will start looking for uncertainty to bring some challenges...Good luck my friend
it’s hard but the part of your brain that says “this is important” is misfiring when you worry about uncertainty
Do you think medicine will help?
Acceptance and commitment therapy would come in handy here, though I have never gotten the privilege to go and do this therapy, sometimes I practice acceptance myself and it does help. I mean, at times I can't and it is too overwhelming and sometimes I succeed and it does wonders. I don't know why nor does my family (I have no therapists unfortunately to guide me) so... I don't know if this helps much. Maybe at least if you never heard of ACT before.
How to deal with false memories when it comes to something so bad and disgusting? It is all so strange because I remember the situation but I have the feeling that I am missing something
Anyone suffering from real event/false memories OCD or both have the habit to think hard about the past to check if you did nothing wrong but it’s all foggy and it leaves you very uncertain? I am currently struggling with this because I was accidentally exposed to adult content at such a young age and I am so afraid that I might have shown it to my lil sis. Like, I am so afraid to be a bad sister to her. I confess to her and she told me that it’s okay since she doesn’t remember anything and that I haven’t shown her anything inappropriate. She tells me that I have been a very good sister but I can’t shake off the feeling. Can any of you give me tips on how to forgive and/or move on from my past?
