Seeing OCD everywhere
Another thing I’ve realised and wondered if this is true for others, do you start to see aspects of your theme everywhere in things when you didn’t before?

My ocd images/thoughts literally pop up in everything that I find enjoyable, it’s like my brain is like “oh you like this, well im gonna make you think about your ocd every time you do this” lol I think it’s pretty common with OCD
@Punkyboy Yeah it’s the hardest bit I’ve found so far, sometimes gets me thinking the theme is real and then have to pop that bubble before it ruminates into something nasty
Personally at times everything good , bad and indifferent can be tinged with OCD . Example for something good say sports or music I can get wrapped up with details where it becomes obsessive and compulsive. Same with all other categories OCD & GAD can rear its head it really anything if given the opportunity.
@777Q I’m so glad someone suggested my recent mental health problems might be OCD cos I genuinely think I’d have broken down because I now see it in people or even clothing choices and it’s desperate to bust out and get worse
Hard to even read or listen to music anymore because it will find an association!
