but does anyone else’s intrusive thoughts and false memories get worse during the night or like as soon as the sun sets? it’s gotten to a point now where i dread the sun setting because ik it’s gonna be worse. i don’t know if this has anything to do with ocd??
Yeah for me. I think it’s because at night I spend more time alone at night so my thought run a little more wild.
Yes, this happened to me too! Idk what it is but I definitely have a hard time going to sleep because of my thoughts at night.
You're not alone in this struggle, remember - it's okay to feel the way you do! I've faced similar struggles and found "unstuck" (unstuckmyocd.com/try) extremely beneficial. Given your specific night dread, it'll help by providing personalized step-by-step assistance for when your OCD flares up at end of the day. I used to associate certain times with higher anxiety too, so I totally understand that dread feeling! Remember, it's your OCD talking, not you. I normally won't endorse products, but unstuck really tailored to my needs, and I truly believe it will assist in mitigating your evening fears — I'm here for you! 😊🌟
Hey there, it's okay to feel anxious about this, we all have our own unique triggers and it seems like nighttime might be challenging for you right now. You're not alone with these feelings, quite a few people here have mentioned similar experiences. This community is here for you 🤗. If I may, I'd like to share something that has really made a difference for me when OCD gets challenging – it's an AI OCD therapy tool I came across, called "unstuck" (unstuckmyocd.com/try). I heard about this from my OCD support group, and it was a game changer. I wished I had known about it earlier. What’s particularly great about it is it creates a personalized, step-by-step approach, just like an OCD therapist, which could be really beneficial when your thoughts become more intrusive at night. It could help you navigate those moments more comfortably 😊. So, if you have any questions about it or want to chat more, feel free to let me know. We're in this together!
OCD worse in fall/winter: Does anyone else's OCD get worse in the fall/wintertime? I think maybe it's the combination of it being shitty and dark outside all the time, and always having to just be in the house. My friends are at college during that time of year too, so basically I just have zero distraction and it gives my brain too much time to overthink and create issues. I used to think I had seasonal affective disorder until I found out I had OCD, but I don't.
does anyone else’s thoughts/compulsions get worse as it gets later in the day?
does anyone else feel their ocd gets so much worse at night or even when it gets dark?
