That is a coincidence :) my name is actually Sofia! This might sound a bit stupid but I’m a bit worried about my cat. She normally sleeps in the kitchen as she’s too hyper to sleep with. She had a vaccination the other day and since then, she has been sleeping a lot more than usual. She barely left the house today, and spent the day curled up in a ball. I know I shouldn’t be worried as her body is just recovering from the vaccine, but my ocd is telling me that it’s more than that. I asked my mum if my cat could sleep with me as I was a bit stressed and I could sleep (I didn’t say y I was stressed) but she said no and that the only reason I can’t sleep is because I had some Coke. I don’t know what to do? Why are you anxious? X

Just to throw this out there apparently there is a legit support group called Cats and OCD... I think I found it on the IOCDF website.

Ha what a strange coincidence! I’m sorry to hear that you’re going through that Sof! It’s times like this that this app is so helpful ☺️ I have contamination OCD and I’m anxious because I’m starting school again tomorrow after a week off and being around so many people, especially as at the moment so many people are sick, is really scary to me ? Flamewheel, Cats and OCD sounds like a brilliant support group to me ? X

I have barely slept in three days, maybe two hours a night. I feel so overwhelmed and uncomfortable right now. I cannot, for the life of me, stop confessing. I feel absolutely unforgivable, like no matter what it is, I am irredeemable. These waves of guilt and dread keep hitting me so hard. Every time I sleep, all I do is dream-ruminate. I analyze every tiny detail of whatever I am obsessing over, even in my sleep. It almost feels easier to stay awake, not that I have been able to do anything else. I feel so drained. I am scared to sleep. I hate my brain. I feel so anxious.

I feel like it’s just me. But at night when I start to fall asleep, play on my phone, or watch TV; I’ll get major intrusive thoughts and a butt load of anxiety. Has anyone felt the same about this? How have you managed it? It’s getting exhausting and even causes me to sleep-less.
