Does anyone with OCD not think they are the exception haha
or do we all believe we are the exception...

It's difficult, sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't have OCD because of the symptoms, but I've been looking for tranquility and answers for years, I doubt that someone genuine will waste so much time on this for years, even, I feel that they would act secretly if the problem is what friends and family think, but it's that I feel that this is not who I was or who I want to be and at the same time I feel that I'm in a cycle, many things that today I perceive before didn't exist or I didn't worry, but sometimes you doubt that it's not OCD and you're in denial, but there you go back to know that it's not what you feel deep down
Just when I used to post stuff and was ignored I used to think that no one answered me because they didn't relate and that I was a monster and that everyone thought that about me , that I was the exception

Yes I use to think that but do not anymore
for the past few years i have been struggling with a certain theme of ocd as well as most of the other themes. but this one i have not figured out a good way to do my own form of erp or non-engaging responses. basically i will be daydreaming or thinking and have a very random thought. i wouldn’t call these thoughts intrusive thoughts because it’s not necessarily fear of the thoughts coming true, its just fear that my thoughts are too unique. my ocd will latch on to random or weird thoughts and may also add in that i was doing something weird while doing the thought. let’s say for example i thought of something random while i was rubbing my feet. then my ocd would be like “why are u having such a unique thought while doing something weird? nobody has ever thought about that specific thought while rubbing their feet before” (just an example). but basically it’s like my ocd bullies me for having thoughts that are too random and things i’ve never heard people talk about before if that makes sense. i am just trying to see if anyone relates even a little and how i can accept that everyone has unique thoughts.
Does anyone struggle with feeling like their ocd issues are not ocd enough compared to other peoples ocd? Is this an ocd thought itself lol
Is it true that ppl without ocd may not even notice some of their thoughts in the first place that people with ocd notice and fixate on?
