this was definitely not okay you do post a lot, however, that’s EXACTLY what this app is made for. if anyone has an issue they can hide your posts from their feed, the feature exists for a reason. with that being said, you will not get better if change isn’t being made. i understand it can be hard to accept the possibility of these thoughts, trust me, especially when in a spiral, but in the end it will be 100000x more better for you than spiraling like this is. you really should talk to a professional about this, you need very serious help and again without change, nothing will get better. best of luck to you

@lb07 I think they said this because they posted about this multiple times, but that’s all I got from it

@King silly they did, and while it might be a little irritating for some people, there was zero need for them to comment that, there is a feature to remove posts from feed for a reason. i mean, this is exactly what this app was made for 🤷♀️

@vaIentine Well yes, This was rude but I don’t think they meant in that intention or anything

@vaIentine Because sometimes the other treatment is to say you did it and move on from that, yes it is a thing, so I don’t think they intended that

@King silly i think it was obvious how they meant it, the wording they used “this is endless with you”, and the overall tone of the message was very, very rude i know that addressing ocd in this manner is a thing, but unless you are a professional, you should not attempt to address it in this way because you lack the proper professional skills and training to do so with a proper approach their comment was unnecessary, rude, and out of pure irritation - in my opinion there was no intention to help this person, they were purely irritated. if they had wanted to help this person they wouldn’t of deleted the comment and would of clarified in replies they meant no harm - they knew they were in the wrong

i believe this person had the right intention but let it off in a tougher way than suggested. regardless, we are not here to tell you that you did or did not do something. if you’re looking for reassurance you are in the wrong place. reassurance will only lead to you looking for it over and over and over again and dig you into a deeper hole. i suggest you try to find comfort in the unknown. i understand it’s easier said than done, but it’s the best you can do. there is no way for you to have a definitive answer.

I think they were just irritated as you’ve posted the same images / post a lot , absolutely not okay to comment on someone’s post who’s quite clearly struggling a lot mentally though. I would ignore that comment.

POCD Trigger: I really hate this disorder and I don’t know how much longer I can do this for. I work at a daycare and I’m constantly bombarded with these thoughts that I have hurt a child or even molested them. It is the worst feeling and part of me knows I’d never do that but my OCD really does take over my life. Today, for instance, I was rocking on of the children and I rocked them for two seconds by accident and it told me I molested them. And when I when to pick them up to put them in the play area my hand accidente touched the front of their leg and it told me again I had hurt them, a similar thing happened with another child today where I was feeding them and I accidentally rocked them and I was now a molester. It really is the hardest disorder to deal with. And I hate how it attacked my occupation, I love working with kids and child psychology and everything, but my ocd is really affecting everything.

POCD
Serious trigger warning here for POCD and suicide. I have these thoughts, urges, and feelings that are terrifying. I don’t act on them and I believe I would never act on them but it feels so real and horrible. I don’t know how this started and I want to believe I am a good person but I’m just so scared that I’m going to do something terrible. And even just these thoughts scare me to my core and make me think, “oh what if I am a pedophile” even though I know I’m not, and I don’t know how to deal with them. When I can keep myself busy it gets easier to forget this stuff, but if I have downtime I can’t get it out of my head. I had a young girl, most likely middle school age, come into my work with her parents today and I was terrified of the idea that I could be attracted to her. I don’t believe I truly am but my thoughts get so aggressive that I don’t even know what to believe. I avoid a lot of things but sometimes you don’t have the option to avoid and it just gets things further stuck in my head and I end up fixating on awful things. I wake up with this stuff floating around my mind and I can’t get it to go away. I’ve even considered just ending it to all to make it easier on myself and to make sure that I never have the opportunity to act on these horrible thoughts and feelings. I don’t ever want to do these things and I know it may sound ridiculous, but the consequences of these actions I haven’t committed scare me as well such as people no longer trusting or loving me, prison, hurting someone else in any way, not being a good person, etc. I just can’t find anything that helps fix this. I have broken down many times due to this issue and I feel like it’ll never go away. I know killing my sled is not the answer and I know I will never act on any of this but the thoughts and feelings are so aggressive that I live in an almost constant state of fear of my own mind and body. I hate this. What did I do to deserve to suffer this way? Why me? Why can’t I just be a normal person with normal human thoughts and why of all forms of OCD did it’s have to be this one? I don’t know what to do. Someone please help me fix this before I lose hope.

Religious ocd is so painful
Ok so I have a trigger word. It makes me panic. Idk why. It just does. And I was listening to music. And then this song came on. And the when the song came on, the chorus came to my head and I can’t remember excatly but I wanted to skip it bc the name of the song was close to my trigger word. So I imagened the chorus of the song being something else that had been triggering me this past month and I got into a state of panic. What if I meant it? What if I’m done for? I don’t know why, I didn’t even think clearly before singing it. I don’t meant it. This this has been scaring me for so long, why would I mean it? U know? But idk, it doesn’t feel like an intrusive thought. I think it was more of a stream of consciousness thing that I was imagining but not meaning. Don’t we all sometimes imageinf things we don’t mean? I’m so scared and tired of this. I just want my brain to shut up and I wish if I could knock myself out and forget everything. I don’t care anymore I’m so sick of this I can’t live like a normal person. I don’t know why I keep imageinf things that trigger me. :(
