Hallucinations
Does anyone have any mild auditory hallucinations with their OCD? I have OCD and anxiety with psychotic features.

Sometimes this can happen if you are laying down trying to go to sleep, and it’s actually a normal occurrence in a lot of people. It’s a part of the brain doing some crazy things while it’s starting to shut down for sleep. It happens to me occasionally.
Once in a blue moon, though it could be the PTSD more so the OCD. But either way, same reaction from me: none.
Yes . 🙌 I remember having those , I thought I was going crazy , but at the time I lived in a duplex and the duplex had another family in it so … I made myself think that it was a tv going on in their house
Yes! This happens alot whenever I'm about to sleep, typically an intrusive thoughts and imagery is combined with this. It usually happens in unfamiliar places, but sometimes it happens in familiar places like my parents home. It's a little scary, but I acknowledge what's going on, and try to get some rest. Thanks for sharing!
Does anyone suffer from Schiz OCD. Where you obsess about possibly being schizo
Does anyone else’s OCD cause them to be hyperaware or background noises (hum of refrigerator, fan, distant traffic, etc.) and make your hearing incredibly sensitive? If so, how do you push your way through it? Mine gets to the point where I can hear all these things that the mind normally tunes out, and then I fear I am having “hallucinations” because I get thoughts about how “I mean it kind of sounds like a whistle, or this or that” and then it causes panic due to my health anxiety and fear of psychosis. My psych has said this is a part of OCD and that I’m focusing on the noises and coupling them with intrusive thoughts, but I’m curious how others have fought this and gotten through.
