this is weird put my ocd has to count and put stuff in order and when i listen to music it helps me do it faster, because I use the beats to count which helps me not have to repeat numbers a thousand times. anyone else know about this?
there is a discord server that's designed for ocd support! i've been apart of it for about 4 months now & absolutely love the community. here's the link if you are interested in joining:) sending love & support your way! stay strong my friend! https://discord.gg/mQxyBmGwhU
So it helps you complete compulsions faster and more efficiently?
@Invalid yea exactly
@traetrae Ideally I'd want everyone to be without compulsions but are you OK with that? Like a happy medium? My mother counts too
@Invalid what do you mean
@traetrae Which bit are you questioning?
@Invalid what do you mean by happy medium and my mother counts too
My mum counts with her ocd. She doesn't like going into it as it stresses her out, all I know is that when she looks like she's doing it I stay the hell away from her or risk dying early 😂 She's happy doing the compulsions. Well not happy, but OK with it. Hasn't held her back in life as she's very successful. She's not seen the need to get better.
@Invalid ohh i see. lol yea im ok with it but i think i still need help
but is it OCD if when i get a thought that makes me anxious i have to hit my head a certain number of times to get it out of my head to relive my brain that everything is fine now (doesn’t always help though). or am i just being dramatic?
does anyone else just count for no reason? like their steps or how many times they move. just a few minutes ago i was scratching an itch on my leg and and caught myself counting how many times i scratched😂😂 and recently i’ve just been counting to ten randomly just in my head it’s so random or if i catch myself tapping on something i tap ten times. i got rid of it kind of like i used to do things 37 times or 3 times or 7 times 😂 3 and 7 or just the number 37 was the number for about like 10 months it was BAD. and i also have to turn on a light switch the right way but i don’t know what the right way is tho and it never feels right so i have to literally stop myself and walk away but i usually end up coming back cs ill think about like an hour from then and how ill have this weight on me because i didn’t turn the light switch the right way or the right amount of times but then i literally usually always forget about it so like idk am i weird orrrr does anyone else do thissss 😬😬😬😬
Does anyone know if weed helps ocd symptoms?
