Does anyone have any success stories with there false memory ocd? Please?
I really struggled with this! Ultimately what help was being very present. Like I feel the cool tile on my feet I feel my hands touch the soft shirt, feeling the weight of an item. Doing this made me know I hadn’t done what my mind believed I had. Also I noticed if I was questioning if I had done it I didn’t
@Lucy Van Pelt Does it feel very real for you when it happened?
@Anonymous. Yes, it’s so hard but I know why values and I know my heart and I just had to learn to trust myself again
Personally with me, the main thing I do is try to let the thought be and not give it power. My therapist ones told me our mind is like a bus and where the driver and there’s gonna be a bunch of people coming into the bus, some positive and some really negative and all you have to do is just drive. You don’t have to listen to those thoughts. As well as the memories. Everybody miss remembers memories sometimes.
Has false memory OCD affected you so badly that you feel that a lot of your memories period are unclear, vague, fuzzy and can’t recall correctly?
Please share your experiences with ocd lying to you? Please share anything, thank you.
I experience crippling, debilitating false memory OCD. It started with a “what if” thought 6 days ago and has spiraled into a never ending loop. My mind is telling me that “maybe you did this terrible, awful, unforgivable thing years ago and you don’t remember it and it’s only a matter of time before it catches up to you and your life is over” I’m really needing some coping mechanisms and support. I’m really scared and my body is exhausted. I just want it to stop. It is full panic attack all day, every day. Please if anyone can relate or help me.
