My OCD doesn’t bothering me anymore

@Angelia_Gengan It’s been a painful 9 years 🥲 because I’m 17 right now I had it since I was 8. I got this mindset because OCD is all based off of doubt and uncertainty. And OCD is a disorder, a disorder is an illness, and an illness can be treated, just like a cold. So if it can get treated and it does go away, I stopped caring about it because well, why should I care? Also, because 2024, worst year of my life. I worried so badly that year. So I got worried so much I decided, what’s the point? I been through like every theme imaginable. I got this belief that if the world stills spins, if my family and I still love me, I’m AOK. Also, I just got the curiosity to want to know what horrible thing happens if I don’t do what OCD asks me to do. I got bored. I don’t know how, but it has something to do with how these past months have been with my therapist, life experiences, and what I read and seen. They all influenced me to develop this mindset. God bless them. I highly recommend this mindset it’s so freeing :3

@Emilia<3 I'm sorry you had to go through this at such a young age It's so good to hear you taking your power back I'm 19 and this thing hit me out of nowhere pocd and its extremely sad Cause I had bring dreams and hopes for life But I'm glad you overcame it You're very very strong for doing that❤️

@Angelia_Gengan Aww thank you :)

@literatureandpumpkinsx For me, I kinda split my worries in two. If it’s doubt, I stick to my beliefs. If it’s uncertainty I try to accept it for what it is. Also, if any themes pop up, I try to do self care and my own type of therapy more to slow it down. OCD will condition you to believe certain things, and the more you go towards your beliefs instead of doing anything out of fear, I think you should be good. It depends how stuck you are in it. Anymore questions I’m happy to help :3

@literatureandpumpkinsx It really sucks having that theme. how long have you been struggling with OCD?

@literatureandpumpkinsx Yeah same I can’t believe I’m 17 though, I’m going to be 18 this year which is wild
