Suggest to not even think about it , when I think that it gets worse in my sleep / in morning etc. I put myself back into ocd cycle rather enjoying my day. Because when night or day comes i will be thinking "this is time when ocd gets worse" and then you think about it. It's in a way a complusion?

totally get how tough it can be when you're tired and your symptoms flare up. it's like everything feels ten times harder, right? 😓 you should try "unstuck", it's this new ai-powered therapy tool specifically for ocd (just google "unstuck app for ocd"). my nocd therapist recommended it to me, and honestly, it's been a game changer this past month. might help you too.

I think me being really tired triggers my suicidal and harm obsession. Can anyone relate?? I didn’t sleep enough and now I’m anxious

Are nights the worst for anyone else? In the past week I’ve only gotten 3 hours tops of sleep per night (and it’s not even good sleep) because I keep on convincing myself I have a serious Illness of some kind. It makes the day time worse as well because I can’t focus on the things I need to do because my body is tired. I feel like if I just have a good nights sleep things will be better mentally but I can’t. It’s the absolute worst.

anxious
does anyone else’s thoughts/compulsions get worse as it gets later in the day?
