Sometimes it's ok
You can agree to disagree in a soft gentle way
You can agree to disagree in a soft gentle way
Nicely worded. And with that said sometimes it really does help point the difference of opinion into a positive direction with being more gentle instead of being harsh or sarcastic.
Thanks mother teresa
Lol I'm just saying for our own sake with ocd sometimes seeing things differently can be really triggering of course if it's very offensive u can stand up for urself
@Catcat2254 I mean i have brought up whether i have RSD or something else but my psych thinks i’m just frustrated and stressed because of how severe my OCD is so i snap at people. I have a big chip in my shoulder! I want a hug
@Catcat2254 I just hate the “live laugh love” energy of some posts, like that shit isnt helping anyone truly suffering in the abyss of OCD :/
@truetrev I didn't mean it that way I've just also been thinking how much rejection triggers me. I don't want people to have excuses to mistreat people. Like people who say we should accept homophobic people I'm totally against that kind of thinking guess I should have worded it better. I've been have trouble with perfectionism think if I don't say things the right way I will mess someone's mental health up. :( I'm worried people see me this way because I don't always catch social ques.
@Catcat2254 Im pretty sure im just emotional baggage girl so dont worry too much about it 😂😞 i take everything personally
@truetrev It's ok me too unfortunately 🫠
@truetrev Suffering looks different for everyone. Just because it doesn’t help you, doesn’t mean it’s not helpful for others
@Endlessly Pondering Yes, I understand that. Me and OP already talked this out.
@Endlessly Pondering But thanks so much for your help😇😇
@Endlessly Pondering Do you know what suffering looks like for me?
@truetrev Of course not, but you said “that shit isnt helping anyone truly suffering in the abyss of OCD” You have no idea what helps and doesn’t help others.
@Endlessly Pondering I’m suffering what the fuck do you want me to say?
@Endlessly Pondering I’m just gonna disagree with you softly. Personally, I don’t think this advice is helpful for people with OCD. Is that respectful enough?
@truetrev @endlessly pondering was just trying to make me feel better and I appreciate at it we're all going through it. u can share what your going through sounds like sharing some of what suffering is like for u could be helpful
@Catcat2254 Im 25, ive had OCD all my life, it is genetic on my moms side and my psychiatrist thinks my dad has it too, so i have a “double whammy.” Both of my brothers have it quite bad too. One is estranged because his OCD got so violent he threatened my mom’s life. I’ve lost friends, jobs, left public school, basically feel all my potential and identity and passions are on chokehold until i get through this
@Catcat2254 I’m talking about a 3 hour shower because i had to get out and write down every thought i had. Thats how i knew it was bad and ive been in psychotherapy for over 10 years.
@Catcat2254 OCD is all i know
@truetrev Im really sorry life has been hard on I know u need to feel this anger and I know u may feel scared everyone is against but there some good people still out there. I've had very hard life too. I had ocd since I was very young my dad is a preist who emotionally abused me but everyone thought he was the most wonderful person I raised my brother in a lot of ways with his autism but sadly he takes on my dad's characteristics I was in very abusive relationship for 7 years and my school years I spent alone because my social anxiety was so bad except I had one amazing friend sadly I can't see her because shes now in a home for people with schizophrenia. Now I'm doing my best to heal I was very angry I felt I would explode n felt I was going crazy for awhile. Im now doing my erp and trying my best to keep the important people close to me tho I struggle with rocd I never want to lose my the people who matter to me it's so scary yet I have thoughts about losing them all the time
@Catcat2254 Ocd is all I know too as a kid I would pray compulsively all day afraid I'd go to hell I was so scared, my dad really messed me up
@Catcat2254 Thats how i feel, angry and explosive without meds. Im currently switching meds and its been chaotic titrating off zoloft
@truetrev I can imagine I can't live without my meds I just started back on meds 3 years ago I was afraid of meds because I was given to much when I was a kid but now that I'm on the right dose n kind it helps so much I hope u can get the meds u need soon
Genuinely why is it okay to not tell everything about your past to others? Even if it’s past mistakes to family and so?
Usually my thoughts go from statements, which I fight all the time, to doubts like “do I” or “i don’t know” but I don’t fight this. I’m not sure if this is progress or it’s the truth. Anyone else feel like this?
Why does my pocd always try to tell my I agree with bad stuff or tell me bad stuff is normal etc… I don’t agree with it but it feels like my body and brain does but I always am like wtf after I get the thought but sometimes if I try to let it pass that feels like I’m agreeing with it. Like omg bro I hate this
