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¤£

Iām curious how many other people experience this! Iāve been diagnosed with severe OCD for 20 years now, about 10 years ago my little OCD brain came up with a series of words. It is saying everyone in my families name and then something negative, and then something positive. Since my brain attached to this series of words, it hasnāt stopped repeating in my mind. Like I said, itās been 10 years, and this āphraseā is constantly repeating over and over in my head. When itās finished, it just restarts again. My brain is constantly exhausted since itās always talking. Itās kinda hard to word this so idk if itāll make sense to you but let me know if this is something that you might experience as well!

Anyone else feel that when they arenāt experiencing a theme that their ocd is almost non existent. It almost makes me feel like Iāve been faking it, and also makes me feel ridiculous for obsessing over things. I feel sorry for myself :/ I know that my themes are valid and felt very real in the moment, but after I āget overā them I just canāt believe that I was obsessing over something that either wasnāt true or didnāt apply to me. I would also like to know how to prevent themes from reoccurring. Health, religion and existential OCD themes tend to take turns throughout my life, I just didnāt know that was it ocd. Trying to break the cycle.

Not necessarily asking for reassurance and I know Iāve mentioned this here before but my OCD has been affecting my cognition seemingly. Iāll forget small things or put things in odd places sometimes, or mix up words - things like that. Obviously this triggers me to be like āAlzheimers/dementia.ā Can anyone relate? And if you recovered what did you do for it?
