Afraid I don’t have Pocd

My Pocd thoughts can be about like if im moving part of my body to some thoughts it’s like hard to explain but for example like if I’m having intrusive thought that in the thought I’m moving my hand so in real life I have the urge to move my hand (like I did with the thought) to see how I felt by doing it and get rid of the thought (sometimes I’m doing it and I feel terrible of course ). And it’s was just an example (there are some worse then actually moving my hand and I’m ashamed to say that). That is why my Pocd started to get severe and I started to believe I don’t actually have it because I haven’t heard anyone that have similar thoughts. Like I have intrusive thought and my mind says to act like I acted on the thought in my head to check how I feel by it and get rid of it (like with moving my hand for example, and this is not even the hardest) . And I feel because no one had this kind of thoughts so I’m faking my ocd. I told that to my therapist and she told me that everyone have different ocd and if someone doesn’t have the same thoughts/compulsions that I have doesn’t mean I don’t have ocd. But I do feel like it because I never heard someone have this kind of pocd. I have Pocd for like 7 months and in the last 3 months this kinda thoughts / compulsion started (something triggered them) and I feel like it made my Pocd way worse and made me believe I’m faking it, I hope I don’t

Well, any form of checking is still OCD, and I'm sure there's more people with that same kind of compulsion than you'll ever know. Also, doubting if you have OCD is like the base ingredient of OCD lol

@Tyconia It weird because I had themes before but these theme… and it’s weirded because I haven’t heard anyone with these compulsions /thought and that makes me scared. Like I’m the only one and I’m constantly asking my therapist if it’s normal Pocd cause when these stared to appear my Pocd got sever because before that my Pocd was way less and not that stuck. And these thoughts are usually what’s stuck in my head like lately this thought comes more then the thought to actually doing something to yk. Like this thought of doing something to … are more easer then the thoughts I have I still get them and sometimes they can’t stuck too like 2 days ago but most of the times if I’m stuck on a thoughts this are the thoughts. And what’s annoying me is that there stuck like a glue and I feel horror 24/7 because of them. And I literally went through all this app/Google/ Reddit and don’t remember someone Having that. Like maybe I so one similar thought but I have a lot of them and different and even grosser. I will like I was having Pocd and then I became to an actual p because of this. Like something triggered this kind of thoughts , it was a tiktok about Pocd actually . After seeing this tiktok my Pocd got so severe. Like my Pocd was never like this so I’m afraid I became a p though Pocd I’m hoping I didn’t

feeling like my thoughts are too unique

for the past few years i have been struggling with a certain theme of ocd as well as most of the other themes. but this one i have not figured out a good way to do my own form of erp or non-engaging responses. basically i will be daydreaming or thinking and have a very random thought. i wouldn’t call these thoughts intrusive thoughts because it’s not necessarily fear of the thoughts coming true, its just fear that my thoughts are too unique. my ocd will latch on to random or weird thoughts and may also add in that i was doing something weird while doing the thought. let’s say for example i thought of something random while i was rubbing my feet. then my ocd would be like “why are u having such a unique thought while doing something weird? nobody has ever thought about that specific thought while rubbing their feet before” (just an example). but basically it’s like my ocd bullies me for having thoughts that are too random and things i’ve never heard people talk about before if that makes sense. i am just trying to see if anyone relates even a little and how i can accept that everyone has unique thoughts.

I'm struggling with POCD it's causing me to feel very unsafe

I'm struggling with pocd it feels very real and I'm at a point where I feel I need to go to confess to the police stuff I know I haven't done but have false memories of doing and I feel like nobody thinks like this and very alone.
