is this ocd?
i have had what seems to be ocd tendencies since second grade. at that point it was more physical and stereotypical (ie praying and counting). i had recognized it could be ocd at around 10 and then kind of forgot about it. recently, i have been having intrusive thoughts of what if i don't love my boyfriend, i think he's ugly, what if im lying about everything i say, im manipulating everyone, that was a lie, you're attracted to that random person etc.) i also have things such as unwanted groinial responses. the themes of lying and manipulating everyone are really common, and to be fair i have a lot of trauma regarding those things, but i haven't seen those as themes. i am convincing myself i don't have ocd and am using this app and this self diagnosis as attention seeking. i have a therapist and she seems to think i have the tendencies and says giving it a name helps anyways. however, i still feel like im lying. i feel like im lying about everything and it doesn't go away. i just looked up how to overdose on zoloft and i don't even know why but because i felt the need to tell my boyfriend, i feel like i am being manipulative and i feel like im being manipulative now. can someone please help?
