I was 16, and I actually called the therapist asking for help with schizophrenia, but he said with a smile, "Now, I'm sure you don't have schizophrenia. Come into my office and we'll have a chat." Then I got diagnosed with OCD and he recommended I read Brian Lock, which was the key to success for me! But I have suffered from ocd for literally as long as I can remember. My first OCD memory was on my 4th birthday, and I don't remember anything earlier than that.

I’ve probably had it since I had childhood trauma about 10 but I didn’t know what it was until recently. I thought I was just going crazy. I also thought it was anxiety but it’s just paired with anxiety.

Was diagnosed a few weeks ago, I’m 18 but first went to a psychologist when I was 14 for OCD. I had symptoms of mild OCD since I was about 9 though. :(

I want to get diagnosed with ocd so people will take me seriously

@GummyDrop I’m so sorry you feel that way! If people don’t take you seriously just because you don’t have a label then that’s their problem. My OCD has been undiagnosed and REAL for years. I know how you feel and I take you seriously. ❤️ I do recommend though making a psychiatrist and talking about it with them so that you can get diagnosed and treated if you are worried about it! It’s also better to start earlier incase it gets worse. For me mine was bad, got way better over the course of two years and then got severe. I wish I had got help earlier.

@Laura3 I’ve got a question please try your best to answer. At first a image of a girl popped up but it almost showed her bottom part but got cut off, somehow it kinda made me like it. Then I realize that I would be a lesbian, and I just panic, cause I don’t wanna be a lesbian, this is too much stress for me to handle. What do you think? Am I a lesbian? Idk please try your best to respond

Recently diagnosed with OCD
Hey everyone. I’m new to this app and have been recently diagnosed with OCD. My symptoms were something I had all my life but only recently took the step to seek therapy. Hoping to share my journey with y’all soon and recover together.

I just want to feel comfortable and content.
I’m a 20 yr old female, I think I’ve always had ocd but the symptoms didn’t become apparent to me until I was about 17. I feel like that’s where life went downhill for me. OCD attacks everything that is important to me, my sexuality, my morals, even my health. Sometimes I wish I could be a kid again and not have this vicious disease in my head constantly bullying me. But I know I will overcome it one day.

Sometimes I feel too old for OCD
Anyone else over 30 and dealing with thoughts that feel debilitating? I know I’m not alone, but I’m curious who else is with me.
