I woke up anxious I had a really disturbing dream about my friends and it terrified me and disgusts me. I woke up and felt wrong and I couldn’t really think of why I felt that way but now I remember what I dram. It’s really making me anxious. I feel this thing sneaking up on me, it only allowed me to feel better for 4 days. Can anyone just please help me? Give advice? Any facts?

This dream you had is scaring you, I can totally understand. Then, it became an obsession. First i want to tell you that it's just OCD and not true, doesn't represent who you are. That's why it causes you anxiety. Just follow ERP. Stay with that thought and experience the anxiety by removing the compulsive behaviour that makes you feel safe (such as avoiding the thought). With that way, you experience habituation, your stress levels come down naturally and the thoughts are going to fade away on their own. I want to recommend you a YouTube channel that personally helps me with my OCD. It is called Restored Minds and you should watch the videos from the beggining. I'm sure it will help you. :)

A lot of people on here worry about their dreams. But remember: your dreaming brain has just as much OCD as your waking brain. Treat it the same.

Can I ask you what the dream was about? I‘m sorry for waking up anxious, but remember, it‘s not a shame to feel sometimes anxious. You woke up anxious? Do the best damn self care you can for yourself. Go out when you wake up, go for a walk and just enjoy the fresh air in the morning. Don‘t try to think too much, I know it‘s not easy as it‘s sounds but what helps me is to concentrate on my breathing. Talk to somebody or write about your problem. Cry if you feel like it! Watch a movie, listening to some music. Meet a friend or talk with somebody about your problem. Maybe you can write about your problem or about your dream? Just do something that makes you feel comfortable! No matter what it is. These ideas above where just some things that help me a lot when I feel anxious because of my HOCD. Be there for yourself, care for yourself! ✨ you are not alone, please remember that!

Thank you guys. It really scare me. In my dream felt uncomfortable/aroused. And just mainly weird. It made me overthink. Thanks for the advice.
