It’s not bothering me
I was reading Reddit about people finding out there a late bloomer and I relate to all of it and the worse part is it’s not bothering me

Trust me don't worry. You don't want the anxiety to paralyze you. Behave your way out of it. Then anxiety reduction in many ways is a healing because that means goodbye to those intrusive thoughts too. And plus you are used to it by now. Roll around in grass meet your friends. Having friends helps you be so mindful, which you might miss when you are on your own. be with your family be with those people who pull you to the present really and when you are alone, you should watch movies, and read books or do your thing and allow yourself to be absorbed In it without any fear or anxiety over not being anxious enough. The anxiety is the inertia of your ocd. Once it's lost, ocd, the thoughts will recede. I have tried to be as non- reassuring as possible. Let the doubt stay and leave on it's own. Imagine you are good academic student and you score really high but you don't know if the answer to that one question you wrote is right or wrong. What can you do? You are not getting the sheets back unless the prof sits down to grade them. You will wait and eventually forget about it. After some days it won't matter AT ALL. My ocd filled brain could not have written this yesterday. But today with a dose of reality I am back to being clear touchwood. I hope the same happens for you. Imagine yourself disabling the ocd from your head.
