Using this app as compulsion?!
Sometimes after I’ve done something „risky“ on my phone or something that makes me uncomfortable or leaves me insecure, I go on this app here to read/like/comment. This might be a compulsion.

Yeh, it might be. Take a break for a few days and see if it triggers you when you don't. You'll get your answer. It doesn't mean you have to stop using the app all together, just change the relationship with it
@Wolfram Good idea
i feel like getting on this app is a compulsion, but it brings me so much comfort knowing there’s people out there like me. and knowing i’m not alone
I just realized that I have this compulsion where i search ocd forums up and down, looking for someone describing the exact scenario/event that im obsessing over right now. Otherwise it’s like i cant convince myself that it really is ocd. Its so stupid because even if I find what I am looking for, I know it is only giving me temporary relief. I was just about to post a description of the theme/scenario here, but I am proud that I stopped myself ⭐️
i feel like im posting here very often bc i want answers. its a compulsion. should i delete in order for me to stop looking for reasurance
