Does anybody struggle with POCD? I’m putting things into place lately to let my thoughts be there and not having to listen to them and I do admit I feel a little better and the thoughts are less and anxiety it less when I’m around people but there’s an urge in the back of my mind to ‘make sure’ and to think and analyse about things just to ‘check’ I definitely know for certain that this isn’t true, this is making recovery quite hard! Any tips please? Also I find sometimes reading things on google can be unhelpful and disheartening, which I need to stop doing! Thanks for reading ?

I began struggling with my intrusive thoughts last March and after 5-6 months finally got to a place of more so peace and not thinking they mean something. But I work two jobs and have school and have to commute an hour for one of them and have felt pretty burnt out lately. I started to feel just tired and low mood which then made me I think get stuck on now a 3 week hamster wheel of checking, stuck on thoughts of what if it’s real this time? What if I can’t handle it, etc. my question I guess is any advice on how to bring myself to place of not listening to every podcast, looking up everything on google I possibly can, Instagram accounts, reassurance seeking, etc. Have trouble reminding myself of truth when in it

I believe I’ve been suffering from POCD since 2019. Every second of the day I keep telling myself that it’s just my intrusive thoughts and one day I’ll get better but my biggest fear is it isn’t POCD and I’m in denial about who I really am. Anyone know where and how I can get help because I’m really struggling. ❤️

I have SO-OCD and I’ve been doing really well and making progress but I’m tired of the repetitive thoughts some are truthful and some aren’t I have more that aren’t or a truth that is being twisted around. Anybody have any good ways to stop the repetitive thoughts?
