Oh definitely every day. I really struggle with peoples interpretation of me and so I feel like they hate me for no reason when in reality that’s my own mind thinking that. I’m also paranoid about what I say to people because I feel like I might share too much.therefore my fear of reputation comes in check. It’s hard but you know I just let things be.

I would say so yes . I have this extreme fear where I am going to go schizophrenia or intrusive thoughts are not my own but hallucinations , etc. This extreme hypochondria sometimes has me hyper aware and my fear becomes irrational. Lets just say it inches into paranoia territory but it is driven by anxiety and inability to control my thoughts ( no one can but that is what us ocd sufferers hate) .

@Mike0310 I suffer from this same extreme fear as well. Comforting to know I'm not the only one ♥️

Yes. Mine is about health. I dont have health issues but every little twinge sends me into a panic.

Paranoia and irrational fear can be labeled as two different things . In my mind I know I’m being irrational … it’s just that little seed of “ what if “ doubt that keeps the cycle going .

My ocd gets so loud in the silence and right before bed when there’s no distractions. I always struggled with anxiety since my teens and guided meditation used to help… until OCD. First time trying guided meditation with OCD I had an intrusive thought of “what if you actually lose control and can’t follow these instructions?” And got even more anxious 🫠🫠🫠 had to stop, and haven’t tried to meditate ever since. Just curious to know. Sometimes I feel like I have the worst type of OCD. It will latch onto anything to make me anxious!

Does anyone else get fixated on one “topic” with their ocd?? like for me trains and guns are mine. like i’m scared of trains and im scared to be around guns because that’s what triggers my ocd and makes me convince me that that is the way to go. i literally worry myself into thinking im going to sh*t myself when i don’t even have a gun but my ocd convinces me. idk if im explaining it good, but its a real struggle. just need some tips & advice

Paranoia… I need to know because I’m feeling very alone in this. I’ve never met someone with the level of paranoia that I have. I can logically explain things to myself and somehow my paranoia convinces me of another story. I’m constantly thinking exaggerated thoughts that there are so many scary possibilities. Am I alone in this or what? If so any suggestions on how to calm these thoughts
