Does anyone have similar thoughts or experiences. My ocd has been really bad for around 3 years but recently around 3 months ago I realised that I started doubting everyone in my life no matter how good they are to me even my parents. Iv been feeling as if everyone is a robot hard to explain but I feel as if no one really exists and that I’m in a simulation and is the only person who realises it and that everyone I know is just waiting to get the opportunity to fk me over. When I see my self in the mirror I look behind me thinking someone is next to me only to realise that it was my reflection. I don’t know whether this is ocd or not anymore especially the fact that my mum is schizophrenic and bipolar anyone know what these symptoms could be?

I cant relate to these specific thoughts, but sometimes ocd can make you feel like you are “going crazy” do u fear these thoughts when You have them?? What is the fear associated with these thoughts?? If you have a family history of other mental illnesses I think it’s really important to see a therapist or atleast talk to your doctor.. you might want to rule out other mental illnesses... it’s possible you can have ocd and another mental illness... for example I am recovered from ocd (though it will always be there) and I have a generalized anxiety disorder both diagnosed... good luck! Hope things are easier for you soon!

Its nice to hear that uv gotten better :) and for example regarding hocd pocd those are things I get scared of my thoughts of being gay or a pedo but with the thoughts I meantioned in the post it’s not like I’m scared of them it’s more like a voice telling me eyerone is against me and that I’m always being watch alwaysss no matter where I am they feel less like reoccurring thoughts but more like voices convincing me that everyone is thinking about me and plotting against me. Then it triggers my ocd and I start analysing every person how they act things iv heard about them how they talk to me.

I’m not a health professional, but it seems like you might have ocd in combination with something else.... I think talking to your doctor and getting a therapist who can help rule out certain things is your best bet right now.. I’m sorry you are going through this it seems like it would be really hard! But you gotta seek some help! Therapists will usually just ask you some questions it’s pretty standard and easy! And then they can give you some treatment options! Good luck!

I don't know what exactly the symptoms are. Talking to as professional is your best bet at teasing it apart
