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 :/

Is it about not accepting uncertainty, and the urge to know everything to the n'th level?

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

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?

Does Google really make your symptoms worse?
I wanna talk about psychosomatic symptoms. How powerful are they for you? Because sometimes symptoms start for me before I even know it’s linked to a disease—but then I Google it and it intensifies. I kind of wanna hear about the power of y’all’s psychosomatic symptoms bc I think it may make me feel better.

Is it in my head
I have constantly been feeling like if I hit one arm, I have to hit the other and if I set something down and it just didn’t look right or feel right I had to do it again or I had to move it to a different spot in my room I’ve had never been a clean freak, which is mainly what I get told is OCD And I don’t know if I should even have this app. I don’t know if I actually have it. I’m constantly worried that I did something in my past that harmed others and that’s why people don’t like me or I’m constantly worried People are constantly watching me and I don’t know if that’s OCD or if I have it so please tell me I will delete this app and never think of it again if I don’t I just really wanna know

Does anyone else feel like this?
I regret researching every single day🫠 In the beginning, I thought searching for similar stories to my own would help ease my fears, but my mind ended up latching onto their worries, which only heightened the anxiety I had before. There were worries I didn't have, and now I do.
