Stop going on reddit. Yes that's certainly your ocd. Maybe it's not and i guess that's what acceptance is. But i've noticed that reddit is going to increase my catastrophic thinking bc ppl over there are not aware of ocd and anxiety. I feel les anxious by not going over there and i can say that even if i'm trans i would not be ok with how reddit ppl treat ocd sufferers.
I’m pretty sure it’s a compulsion because if I was actually trans I wouldn’t be on this app, I would be on that subreddit. I’m avoiding it right now but my hands are aching to search it again. The posts get stuck in my head and ocd holds them against me. I’ve calmed down now but it did make me cry a bit
I never ever felt nauseous at the sight of my own boobs but now I do. Do I keep wanting to go back to that subreddit because it’s relatable? I didn’t even know it existed before this shit. At the start of my obsession my brain always said stuff like “do this or you’re trans” like my brain would conjure up some weird shit like “step on that leaf or you’re trans” or “jump over that like with both feet or you’re trans” and I’d have to do it. But I’m still doubting it so much. I’m so scared
But it’s like I’m beginning to realize how different my symptoms are to ocd sufferers. I think this is the ocd tricking me? Or something?
You wouldn’t be so scared about being trans if you actually legitimately wanted to be trans
True, but some of the posts said stuff like “I’m too scared to admit I’m trans that’s why I’m in denial” and shit like that. I should stop going on that subreddit and freaking myself out lol
@margo1 Yeah but that’s other people that’s not you
I just recently developed this OCD, I have suffered with so many types, harming myself & others, HOCD, scares about dying, now this. I feel you. I have been a girl my entire life in and out. I saw an article online about transgenders and I questioned it and now my OCD kicked in and is in full force. I have been trying to combat it but it certainly just does not work. I am glad I found someone that also has this so it makes me feel less like a lunatic. It’s your mind, thoughts are not reality. That’s what I have to keep telling myself through these various spouts of OCD. It sucks!
I’m scared that I want to be a boy! I’ve been diagnosed with Harm OCD about 5 weeks ago and all of a sudden my thoughts have changed into me wanting to be a boy! I’m a 14 year old girl who’s never thought or wanted to be a boy before. I would rather the thoughts just go but sometimes the thoughts make me imagine life as a boy and it doesn’t seem that bad which then gives me anxiety because it makes me think that I might want to become a boy! I’ve always been a girly girl and loved dresses and makeup but ever since I’ve got the thought (which came out of no where) I’ve been avoiding makeup and avoiding seeing my friends! I get so scared that I might turn transgender and that I want to be a boy. Help. Is it ocd or am I trans?
This shit is RUINING my relationship! I’m so FUCKING done with this. I think I have trans ocd but my past actions are messing with me because a couple of times in the past I said that I was trans. Like without thinking. And I’ve joked about being a boy in the past because I’m not very girly. I’m a tomboy. I’d say I was trans because I somehow thought it was cool or something. Well I’ve never hated being a girl. As a kid I was really girly like REALLY girly. I hate the thought of being trans and right now I’m going through so much anxiety. I have a boyfriend and I love him a lot but if I do turn out trans it will ruin everything. I never lay awake thinking about being a boy. I never cried or was sad because I’m a girl. I hate myself for saying these things when I was younger because now I’m so stressed about it. Please help. Am I trans for these things? Because I used to think there might be a possibility or myself being trans because I was kinda tomboyish but I never worried about it. It was just something that crossed my mind. I liked dressing masculine and looking masculine too. I remember when this whole ocd thing hit full on I clearly remember thinking “ohh this is really similar to when I had murder thoughts”. I really hope it’s ocd. Fuck this is ruining EVERYTHING. I hate this so much.
I'm really really scared that I might be transgender I don't know if it's ocd or denial can anyone please help
