Don’t read if you easily get sick by gross topics!!! ——— ——- —— —- — - My stress with POCD, has been so bad, that my poop is literally liquid, and my stomach keeps rumbling when I’m stressed, I have not ate anything that was bad nor do I have a stomach bug problem right now
i get this all time 👀 harm ocd and pocd are the wost !!! but i learned today to do erp tactics. instead of trying to forgot and do the compulsion of pushing away the intrusive thought and shut off completely what im doing since today i just tell myself 'its ok' and carry on with my daily business cause i am trying to realise that these thoughts are clearly not me and that they are just stupid wierd and random. its hard to tell myself that its going to be ok when it doesnt feel ok but it will be ok
@emmahitam worst sorry not wost i wasnt thinking straight while typing Lol
@emmahitam It’s okay!! We all mess up our words!! But thank you for your helpful advice!!
Stop I have the same feeling but not with the first thing you said but I always get the same things like stomach feeling like I’m sick or something. Maybe it’s because our intrusive thoughts or etc can be so taboo that it just genuinely makes you feel sick but it’s probably an illusion but that’s all I know.
hello ocd community! my obsessions and fear of throwing up and compulsions of praying about it cause me to have physical anxiety and my stomach hurts almost every night before i sleep. this triggers my ocd because i am deathly afraid of throwing up which causes me to act on obsessions when i start to feel sick. the anxiety and stomach aches can trigger each other, and when one happens, it is a vicious cycle and they make each other worse. i have a hard time getting out of this headspace or relaxing without taking xanax or drinking alcohol, and if i don’t, i will stay paralyzed in fear for 1-2 hours. any suggestions for healthy coping strategies? anybody have similar fears?
I genuinely think I contracted food poisoning . I had barely eaten throughout day until I got home from work . Had a sandwich and fries. I felt so stuffed afterwards , that I started to feel shortness of breath and nauseous. I felt better a little agyer but still felt full, I then stupidly continued to ate despite that. I had a pint of ice cream I had been saving since I got home. My main symptoms I’ve noticed have been Alor of dehydration, nauseo, and shortness of breath. Drinking water isn’t helping . I’m scared I’ll die in my sleep. I don’t wanna have to ruminate and get anxiety and possibly have to ask parents to rush me to hospital .
Does anyone else make themselves feel physically sick when they’re anxious? It’s like I’m making myself sick with reoccurring thoughts of worry. If you do, how do you make yourself feel better in those moments..?
