Periods

Oh my goodness. I was just thinking about this. Every time I’m on my period it seems like my OCD gets so much worse. I feel so emotionally unstable. I was wondering if there was a reason for it. Maybe hormonal changes exacerbate symptoms?? You’re already high stress and it only escalates it, idk??

It is hormonal and stress on the body that triggers it. You can't be rid of that unfortunately as it's part of being human but you can deal with the ocd if you learn how to. Also, periods don't just effect women's ocd when they go through it. My ocd definitely amplified when my ex had one 🤣
