Having your mind run is so hard and it feels like it’s never ending. However I personally have noticed the more I focus on it running the more it happens. The more I accept and say this is where I’m at right now, nothing is wrong with me, my brain is just in this cycle and it won’t last forever, helps alleviate the pressure of “why is my mind running and I shouldn’t be feeling this way.” Recently thinking, i’m not the only one with a racing mind, intrusive thoughts, and having a panic attack right now, makes me feel less alone and helps me nurture where i’m at more. It’s so hard but it will pass! I love a good ocd podcast to focus on while I fall asleep if i’m spiraling. a good one is your anxiety toolkit or youre healing and freedom journey by mark de jesus. hope this helps 💕

@Ariyah Aw sweetheart, it does FEEL very scary, but I promise you’re safe. Feelings are just feelings, they come and they go. You can tell you’re already so wise for your age and I know learning from ocd, accepting your feelings and discomfort is going to help you not only help yourself but others too. seriously look into “your anxiety toolkit” podcast. she’s amazing and has such great insight on ocd and anxiety

panic/anxiety attack
i’m currently experiencing a panicky anxiety attack and i don’t know why. i’ve been on edge all day because of being scared to get sick, but right now, i know i’m not going to get sick but i’m just really panicked and cannot calm down. i’m currently listening to music that helps relax me with an icepack on my neck to help, but not much is happening. my sister and mom keep coming into my room and it’s only making it worse but i don’t know why. i just don’t want to talk or be around anyone right now. these kinds of episodes are worse than any other because i don’t know why i’m so scared. it just feels like it’s never going to go away.

panicking so bad
I want to rip out my uterus. Only my hormones can make my OCD and ability to manage it go back to square one. I am spiraling *so* hard. I cannot breathe. My PMDD is going crazy. I’m having a panic attack again. I feel so scared. The POCD is going absolutely insane right now. It feels undeniably real, and my mind keeps drifting to those awful thoughts and what feels like exploring them?? but I can’t for the life of me stop some of these compulsions right now. I was trying to watch something to get my mind off of this but ended up getting triggered twice, so my anxiety is a 10 and I can’t seem to calm down. This panic attack is tuned all the way up.
