I wish there was a meet up local to me where I could make friends with people who know/ experienced ocd that I could be friends with? Not for reassurance but just so I can message like āyou ever think about what faeries do when itās rainingā. I also have adhd so I have intrusive and random impulsive thoughts š
Man I wish the sameš i need to know ppl who get how I feel I do not live in the uk thoš
yea we all need a friend with the same condition as us
i literally canāt tell any of my friends abt this bc iām afraid theyāll act differently to me or laugh based on the way theyāve talked abt ocd before
Where abouts in the north of the uk Iām in Manchester
I know itās awful! Iām in Manchester funnily enough š but unfortunately I have no social media because itās one of my triggers š so thatās fun
I have ADHD too and now I am wondering what faeries do when it rains!
@Anonymous I literally sent my friend a message saying ātechnically, cannibals can be vegansā and she blocked me for the night šš
@katieR94 What, why?! Side note: I didnāt know you could only block someone for a night. But why block you? Get your random thoughts out.
@Anonymous Itās British humour Iām afraid š we are mean to each other but out of love ššš
@katieR94 Iām from the US. We block each other hereā¦.itās just usually for good lol.
Where are you located?
@Lidusha The north of uk!
@katieR94 Iām in Dallas, US. You can text me if need to talk. This is my Instagram @lidakirby
@Lidusha - Hey there! I wanted to invite you to the OKC for OCD Walk at Lake Hefner this September (2024)! There will be games and prizes after the walk, so stick around if you can! :) It's a great opportunity to meet others in the area in person. With how isolating OCD can be, I think a lot of us could use some community! https://support.iocdf.org/OKCforOCD
Well if u need smb to talk to me Iām here ur not alone ml!!!
@suspectedocd3!!R Awh! I wish there was somewhere we could all chat!
@katieR94 My instagram is sarhlove84 feel free to text me whenever youāre spiraling or just need to talk
Ive been on this platform on and off for quite some time now. The last months have been quite challening. I started with erp but I still struggle to do it consistently. Idk if anyone can relate to what I am about to say, but sometimes when my anxiety is a bit hightened again, I get ocd dreams about my obsession and the feelings I have in the dream are lasting - so I feel them in reality as well - although I mostly feel them when I have nothing do to and I get hit with intrusive thoughts. That lasts probably for a couple of days and its an absolute nightmare. At the moment I am so sad that I feel like I am not able to date because I donāt really feel attraction towards men atm. This always changes but often times when ocd gets worse, my normal attraction fades away. A lot of people around me are getting into relationships and everybody seems to have their lives together and I feel like the odd one out. I wish to get married and have kids but it seems so far away from me right now and I feel quite depressed about it - and I get intrusive thoughts about this as well (that I donāt want to have a boyfriend etc) I wish to find some christian friends on here to talk about this journey, especially when you hope that God will deliver you from all this. I would be glad to connect with people!
Is there a therapist or a specialist on here that I can briefly chat with? Or maybe an OCD conqueror whoās very familiar with the disorder? I need an experienced person to talk to me so bad. I just really wanna talk to somebody about what Iām going through so that I feel less alone, and so I can maybe get help managing my symptoms. Thank you in advance ā„ļø
Iām 19 and struggle with health anxiety, contamination, harm, and magical thinking OCD and would love to meet people with similar experiences and hardships because I have never had an opportunity for such a supportive community!
