My OCD makes me think/worry I might have schizophrenia sometimes or get it later in life. Is that what you mean, like it makes you worry about that?

The only reason I don't think stuff like this anymore is because I've had 3 doctors diagnose me with the same thing panic disorder with ocd. My advice find a doctor to give you a diagnosis, then find another, and another if you have to. I'm guessing each diagnosis will be similar. OCD is pretty specific. Worrying about having other health problems is ocd at its finest. I still do this too but not with mental illnesses so I can say it's an ocd thing.

yes i constantly fear i have a personality disorder but i also tell myself to calm myself i mean fine if you have it cool like you and your therapist will just be able to get your life on track more because now you know all the things going on with you but then i freak out because i hear the stories about people with bpd or npd and how there is very little people can do to help them and then i freak out about that

Yeah, or like I have it now because I research the conditions (which I know is a compulsion) then it confuses and convinces even more! Because I think “yeah I do that, yeah I feel like that and yeah I have that thought”

Do you have a therapist or psychiatrist? You could let them know you’re wondering about it and then you can confirm whether or not you’re worried and it’s just your OCD or it’s something that you need to treat. Either way it’s a win! Because you either won’t have it and you’ll feel better about it, or you do and you’ll be able to treat it.

@kittea Most of the time when we research tho we will almost always apply the results to us, I do this a lot 😂 that’s why I almost try to never use WebMD or any other source unless it’s something that won’t make me worry

Anyone else with HOCD get thoughts of like "people in denial try to distract themselves" or anything along those lines when just trying to move on from the thoughts. Having a pretty bad episode this morning at least anxiety wise.

So with my theme of ocd, ( hocd ) I get persistent intrusive images, and thoughts. It’s not like one or two a day. Like if I’m out for the whole day they’re constant. I feel I can’t even look at a girl now without her intrusive thoughts about her or about me fancying her and even sexual intrusive thoughts.. It’s awful. It’s everywhere I look. Is this common with ocd with any themes? Like is it constant for you guys too?

2 nights ago I saw something on my phone and it has now spiraled into me scared of being trans or being gay because i don’t want to be… now i have a huge fear of what if i am gay and am attracted to woman or what if im not comfortable in my body and want to turn into a man. It’s freaking me out - my ocd always makes me question my character! Has anyone experienced this 😩
