The fact that you’re pushing through is good, and I know it’s so hard not to seek reassurance. By pushing and pushing (and with some growth in wisdom) you’ll hopefully learn that these feelings are *just* feelings. The illusions will show its true face, you won’t be deceived by ocd any longer. Keep boldly optimistic in order to persevere, I wish you the best with this. If you believe in God, Pray for help with this issue also. I’m fully confident that God helped me to get to where I am today in terms of anxiety management.

On the same road - no word of wisdom other than you’re not alone with being at war with your mind.

hey there, i totally get how tough it can be when your mind keeps looping on those 'what ifs' based on real stuff. it's like being stuck in a really intense movie that just won't end, huh? 😓 you should give "unstuck" a try – it's this new AI tool for OCD that pops up if you google "unstuck app for OCD". my nocd therapist put me onto it, and it's been a game-changer for me in the past few weeks. might be worth a shot for you too! 🌟

Spiraling hard
I have a lot stress factors weighing in me, and I've already been in the midst of an OCD flare up so I'm struggling pretty hard right now. My brain is digging so deep to think of anything bad or gross I did when I was younger and I don't know how to handle it. I want to tell it all to my gf but I don't want her to look at me different over weird thoughts when I was younger, but my brain is telling me I'm hiding it and I'm a horrible person. I don't know what to do, I haven't spiraled like this in a long time and I can't get out of my own head going deeper into past thoughts and memories and actions I'm deeply ashamed of.

False memory feels so real today.
It feels as real as it can get today, I’m in such a bad flare with my ocd lately and I don’t know what’s happened. I was doing so so well and I’m back to this horrible place. Everything is getting to me, the real details especially. It’s all just consuming me today. I feel terrible.

doing my best
I'm truly doing my best to let these thoughts exist and to not engage with them, but it's so hard because the lingering feelings of guilt, shame, and anxiety are still there. does anyone have any tips on how to combat this? any encouraging advice?
