Real life dilemma

One of my OCD themes is real event/cancel culture. I’m also involved in the arts industry with a small following. I’ve been made aware by someone outside the art scene that a fellow artist has been abusive towards someone. I’m now in a moral dilemma where I feel a duty to make people aware in order to keep them safe, but I don’t know if I want to be involved in potentially cancelling someone. Really not sure what to do?

personally I would not take it to social media incase you are informed about the events incorrect. If you are close with anyone involved with this person so would let them know but not publicly. And depending on the seriousness of the situation you should probbaky let the police know.

Hey, it's definitely tough when your OCD can be triggered by such complex issues, especially those concerning morals and responsibility in a public sphere like the arts industry you are part of. I can sense the dilemma you must be feeling due to your commitments to the art community and the desire to do what's right without contributing to cancel culture. You're not alone in this and your feelings are truly valid. 😊 Have you tried using the OCD therapy tool, "unstuck" (unstuckmyocd.com/try)? I heard about it in my OCD support group and I so wished someone had told me about it earlier. Given your specific situation, it'll be particularly useful because it offers steps to help cope with real event OCD, like what you're dealing with, by providing personalized strategies for when things get tough, much like having an OCD therapist on hand. Feel free to reach out if you have questions about this tool or just want to chat some more, I'm here for you. 😊👍

Tips for dealing with morality/decisions? I recently found something out about a friend from another friend. It distresses me, but I don’t know where to go from here. My OCD is making it hard to make a choice because it’s saying “this should be an easy, black and white choice. You are bad for not instantly getting rid of this person”. I need help figuring out how *I* feel, not how the OCD feels. Does anyone have advice? I feel like utter trash, I won’t lie.

Cancel culture and ocd

I just can't get.stuff out of my head where it's like what if I did something taboo 4 years ago and don't remember, then somehow it gets public and I get cancelled. Sometimes I feel stupid like what the hell am I thinking but other times I'm panic mode with anxiety. ❤️ How does cancel culture affect ur ocd? No affirmations please 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️

OCD about liking a problematic musician

Sorry, this might be very specific. I have this OCD theme where I'm afraid of supporting a problematic artist by accident. I really love music, its my number one coping mechanism and I tend to fixate on musicians that I love. I love learning about the history of my favorite bands or musicians and collecting merch. But I have this fear that I'll find out a musician is problematic and I'll be a bad person for liking them or their music still. I have this one artist I love, hes really helping with my mental health recently and provides me with safety and an escape and im afraid one of these days I'll find out something awful about him and have that ripped away from me. Does anyone else experience this?
