Googling
Does anyone else Google everything? Like quite literally everything? Even if it’s not related to OCD obsession, I feel the need to understand everything.

Yes. I feel like I have obsessions about needing to know and remember everything. If I can’t remember something I already learned I get so frustrated :/
yes!
Is it about not accepting uncertainty, and the urge to know everything to the n'th level?
Me !
Yes I used to, now if I have a genuine worry about something (it can be hard to tell if it’s a real worry) I ask someone I trust to look it up instead so I don’t scare myself or fall down the rabbit hole. It used to be a real compulsion esp during covid
Absolutely . I feel like sadly right now all day I’m trying to ensure that what I’m dealing with is ocd and not something else
I definetly used to. It was hard to stop at first but ive found i feel so much more peaceful if I dont search things. Honestly it took quite a few slip ups but I was finally able to stop my googling habit when i truly understood how much harm It was causing me and my ocd.
Yes I do this I google everything about anything that I don't know or want to know or think I might know, or just only a bit know so.etimes it'll be a quick little look up, other times it'll be hours of research
yes!! i literally feel like i can’t rest until i google a piece of information i heard. i keep so much useless information in my brain just in case
Same here. I make long notes on things I feel I must remember too. Such an uncommon subtype how would you even do ERP with this?
