Hi there J! Yes! So the 1st thing you said I have definitely had. The not sure I caught every word they said and rewinding it until I make sure I understood every word. Trust me that definitely IS your OCD. It's just another silly tick. Now that you havs identified it as such, try and ignore it just as you have to do with any tick and it will stop. That's what I did and I never have it anymore. Wishing you all the best energy!

Yup!!!! Especially lately because my adhd med caused dopamine toxicity which then caused delusional hallucinations which I'd never ever experienced before, it was freaking terrifying!!!! I also apparently have "weak auditory processing issues" according to a $3000 psychoeducational assessment report completed by a specialist lol... Makes me question my strength and it doesn't feel empowering tbh. So hard to truly "know" anything š¤¦āāļøš¤·āāļøš¤£

I think I have OCD since last year but I just realized that Iāve got OCD this year even I havenāt been to any mental clinics or hospitals to test if I have OCD or not. I realized i have OCD this year when i watched movies or videos but i feel like to watch them again and again to check some specific sentences in that movie. Like if that video has subtitles and there are always have some phrases or sentences that make me read, look at every single words of that thing. Even sometimes i check that thing just want to know at the end of that sentence has a dot or comma, kind of like that, i know itās hard to describe about these situations for me even i know checking these things doesnāt help me anything in my life but the more i watch, read and focus at any details in anything i look so when i remember about something that i watched or red, if i cannot remember exactly all the words of that sentence in the movies, videos, post i feel like to check just know what it is again. Most of my compulsions are related to anything i look, watch or read in my phone. Even sometimes i feel like to check if that is just an account name of anyone, comments on social medias. And before i had so many bad problems with doing things to just āfeel rightā after i watched those movies and videos. There were some rules that came in my mind so when i watched them again - i had to click this, touch this, replay this over and over again in the video or even look at video duration at the end. There are so many things that i did before that i couldnāt describe enough but i just want to say i used to want to complete many missions in my mind to just feel right or feel completed. If i donāt complete that stupid mission (i called it stupid because i kept me stuck with my life), Iām gonna do it again and again whenever i free until i finish it. At the moments, i donāt have any stupid missions to do about those things i watched but still have some thoughts about them and want to check to know what they are. Can anyone help me with my problem about OCD? My English can not be really good as Iām not a native English speaker. Thanks.

iāve been having this theme pop up recently where if I see people either criticize or be a hater and spread misinformation or seeing old controversies about my current interests/hyper-fixations i find myself having a crazy anxiety attack about if itās āmorally okayā to be interested in my interests anymore. i feel really singled out and like im doing something wrong because im watching a youtuber or listening to a specific musical group. in all of these specific situations the people involved have talked about the situations and have changed accordingly but seeing it makes me feel like i shouldnāt be allowed to like my favorite things. to be clear none of these things are dramatically evil or bad. itās either misinformation/uneducated people influencing someone opinion and then they learn and change. it just makes me feel like im not allowed to like my favorite things anymore because of people criticizing it??? if that makes sense??? also this is a little off topic but also not really because iām 99.99% sure im autistic because of MANY things but with this specifically i have very strong interests and i feel very deep feelings about them and any and all criticism or hateful comments towards my favorite things trigger me deeply and make my ocd act up and make me feel uncomfortable and uncertain and anxious and it causes physical discomfort to me. i really donāt know how to calm myself down about this specific theme itās brand new and makes me feel really anxious. not trying to look for reassurance but does anyone else understand what i mean??? does anyone have any advice on how to not give into the negative comments??? any suggestions on how to ease this specific anxiety???

My OCD has found new objects that I should be scared or worried about and I have this urge to hide them or throw them away. When Iām trying to watch tv I get really anxious that Iām trying to focus my attention elsewhere other than being in my own head, trying to sort my thoughts out & when I say I donāt want something I feel like Iām in denial. Does anyone else feel like this
