Ruminate about old conversations and what they meant or how they hurt me / memory checking / body checking / asking for reassurance and constantly asking the same questions over and over again / googling reassurance

I am the exact same. I’m trying to figure out how to use this app for the compulsions/ exposure. What do you do? Just sit with it? Go x amount of time without googling?

Anyone else say “Sorry” all the time?! Like for mundane things?

I used to. Working on your mindset and self esteem helps with some symptoms of ocd

I struggle with my past mistakes a lot and ruminate on them. I typically will do mental review, which is replaying the past event in my mind over and over again, Googling “Am I a bad person?” Or related questions about morality and not caring what others think, and I will seek reassurance on Reddit (THE WORST!), how about you?

@TCVM6 Thanks :) I'm just so tired of it . I feel like OCD takes my happiness away . And I miss myself before OCD.

Agognize about the a past that did not exist. Project detrimental images and scenarios that have no bearing to the now. Presently, I’ve progressed far and learning to accept uncertainty with self care has been a test of my character. Coping with OCD has been a tremendous achievement, I’m proud of myself. As anyone who deals with this disorder shall also be.

Checking feelings is a big one for me. Self-reassurance, googling, rumination, questioning my thoughts which leads deeper into the rabbit hole, for physical i keep my closets closed due to my suicidal OCD. Avoid keeping scissors and cables and certain articles of clothing out, so definitely avoidance

Today I had thoughts like : is this filter on Instagram real or no? Like I thought I posted selfie with filter on my story but only I saw this filter . I know it sounds stupid but I asked my mom and she saw the filter. It's like when I dont talk about my intrusive thoughts then they seem real and I feel crazy.

@JS?? It was like I was using insta filters for fun, then a memory from X years ago appeared in my head about snapchat - when snapchat was quite new and filters weren't advanced like now I did a video of something with filter and posted it on snapchat mystory and then I checked on mystory there was my video but without that filter I used while i was creating that snap video. So today my brain was like : " this filter is so cool I'm gonna post a selfie" , then " remember when you posted a video without filter ? Haha so embarrassing it was without filter", then " what if I posted selfie without filter " " what if only I see this filter", " what if I'm crazy" then I ask my mom
