I totally understand. Every few months I get a feeling for a change, like rearranging my bedroom and last time I did it, it caused a spike, but I didn’t rearrange the room back I just left it how it is and didn’t let the anxiety/ocd win. Trying out different stuff is fun, especially nail color I think, so don’t let your ocd tell you that you have to go back to the old thing. If you like the accessories or nail colors, keep them! You’re in control of your style ? maybe good exposure could be changing things up more often, too, if you’re comfortable with it. You could get a new accessory and start wearing more often or anything other changes that urge you to change back. Hope you’re doing well!

Thanks! I'll take it in consideration ? my favorite color is pink so I always get my nails that color but I feel like I'm not allowed to wear any other color aside from pink because it's like my signature ? same thing with perfumes I have a hard time choosing which one i like best so I just stick to the same one because Its not like I can wear all of em at once or else that'll smell pretty weird lol and about the accessories sometimes i wanna stop wearing certain ones but I feel forced to keep them even if I probably look over accessorized. Ugh it's so stupid.

It’s not stupid! It’s just the OCD trying to control you. Don’t be so hard on yourself. I have a necklace that I wear everyday, maybe you could do that pick one accessory to wear everyday instead of all of them? You could just try a different shade of pink or making one nail a different color from the rest

The color that I can’t wear is actually pink so when I got a pink scarf for Christmas, it was a real struggle to convince myself that it could be a nice addition to my wardrobe. But to do that, I had to get other pink items to get everything balanced so I bought pink nail polish too (after looking up the product code for the exact colors that my favorite blogger wears). Doing the research before helped me convince myself that it would be okay. But now I only feel okay with that specific shade of light pink on my nails and that specific coral color on my toes. I just feel safe when I do the same thing to avoid the perfect storm of thoughts that comes with something new!!!

Oh yeah definitely! I make sure I wear my hoop earrings everyday lol I agree! I would do my nails different shades of pink when this year first started but it's been months that I've been sticking to my favorite shade of pink which is cotton candy pink. @0823
