Hi, I’m so sorry you are experiencing this. Try to breathe and return to the present moment by assuring yourself that you are completely okay and supported. Make sure that ur muscles aren’t tense and take very deep breaths. I’m currently having a lot of anxiety and I’m trying my best to help myself and I’m trying to think of what makes me most happy as I completely relax my body. I hope this helps you :)
As someone who intensely fears that feeling and has OCD around it. This exact feeling happened to me like 2 hours ago after dinner and I just laid down and rested and it passed. Not sure if it was my brain psyching me out or a genuine health thing but either way I got past it and YOU WILL TOO! <3 btw I’m also scared of everything so I feel you - OCD sucks but you are stronger
Im just scared of everything
hi! place a heating pad on your stomach and play a game or watch your favorite show. let yourself and i mean LET yourself be distracted. this is hard to do. one time i felt suicidal and was crying to my bf telling him this feeling would not go away but he put on a show and i had to LET myself be distracted. it definitely tried to keep upsetting me, especially when my attention was drawn to it and i was almost looking for it. but you can do this. stomach pain typically lasts about a couple hours so give yourself a distraction and put your mind to rest!
Thank you so much for the advice ill try to do that 🥰🥰
So I've had OCD since I was a child. Like really young. The first intrusive thought I can remember was when I was 5. It just keeps getting worse and lately they've been making me physically ill or throwing me into extreme panic attacks again ( ones where I can't move my body ) the other night I thought God was trying to kill me because I was thinking about ending myself from OCD+ life issues but in reality I was just having a panic attack😭😭it affects me daily. It gets a little better with therapy but I don't see therapy coming into my life any time soon and I'm not even sure if I would want to go (for multiple reasons). To wrap this up if you have severe ocd can you tell me what it's like?? I don't want to label anything without proper research and hearing others perspectives. Thank you!! <3 (My profile says all of my subtypes if that helps any)
My OCD has never been this strong, it's so real, it feels like it will never go away, it's never been this strong for me and it's very scary.
My OCD has been terrible the for the past two weeks. I have a fear that I will never be able to get out of the thought loop. I am hyper aware of my thoughts and it disturbs me. I haven’t been able to eat for 10 days. I force myself. I haven’t been able to sleep for more than a couple hours. Then I wake up and ruminate for a couple hours, until I’m exhausted. I’m also afraid I’ll never sleep well again. And I’m afraid I’ll never eat and enjoy my food again. I’m afraid I’ll never be able to stop thinking about this enough to enjoy my family ever again.
