Aw sweety, your minds needs a break, some good sleep and to be able to focus on other things for a while. Youre consumed in rumination, compulsions and anxiety. Try listing 5 triggering thoughts, and 5 compulsions you do to lower anxiety. You will notice your behaviour follows a pattern. Your mind is capable of thinking anything and everything. Thinking more wont get you out of this.

The more you'll be scared about your thoughts, the more your thoughts will be intense. The thoughts are a part of yourself and fighting them is like fighting a part of yourself. Face them, accept them, do not think you're weird or whatever, you are yourself and be proud of it and curious about yourself. You fell like you don't exist ? Well cool ok fine. Rather than fighting against this dig in it, question yourself try to take the best of your thoughts, and if you feel alone reassure yourself with this app or Google your thoughts I'm 100% you will find a post of someone experiencing the same kind of thoughts as yours, like myself with my thoughts. You're not alone in this trust me do not feel alone, but you're the only one who can find peace with yourself. Good fight 🙅🤗

I’m wondering, have you ever tried any grounding strategies? I get that feeling sometimes where suddenly the whole world seems fake. For me it’s usually related to dissociation I think. Often I will find something to touch. I have a soft blanket I keep in my room, for instance, that I rub the silky edges of. Even if it’s just anxiety grounding techniques can help with that too.

A thought has absolutely no limit. You experience something that lots of people already experienced too, since forever so do not be that much worried about it! I already wondered to myself wouldn't be myself GOD, creating this all world because I was fed up to live alone? Or do people surrounding me live for real or am I alone? As said above thoughts have none limits. A thought like this is totally normal even if fucking weird. I think you have too much time to think over all these things. Having a work, doing some sports, going out being make up by professionals, having a hair cut, go shopping etc why do think people do that ? To live and avoid thinking too much, because nobody understands life and we're all owned by doubts, you just have a difference between those who want to control the doubts (you me, and all our fear friends in this app) and the others (so called normal people) who accept the uncertainty.

So recently my mind is trying to make me feel like I accept the thoughts, like I'm ok with for example loving X person. After I get a thought like that and I realize it I get anxious and, like right now, I cry for 1 hour+ on the bathroom floor. I feel exhausted and I want to know if I'm the only one having this.

I’m sobbing right now. I’m convinced that I’ve been in denial all along and that it’s all real. It has to be now. I don’t wanna be a boy but I feel like there’s no way I’m not one if I’m doing these things. There’s no way I’m a cis girl if I’m doing these things. I’m so fucking done with life I feel absolutely trapped. I don’t wanna be a man but fuuuuuuuuck I think it’s real now I’m so fcking done with living. I really feel like I’ve been using OCD as an excuse/a cover up and I’m scared it’s all a facade. There’s no way it’s not real now I’m literally so fcking scared I want it all to stop. If anyone has advice please send some my way. I need it badly

I want to get thought this weird horrible period, it has been horrible. I am doubting everything. I’m not diagnosed but when I look at my past I’ve always been horribly anxious and worrying about health, death and basically everything while suffering from major a lot of insecurities stemming from bullying and lately a lack of intimacy with my partner, Every time I think I’m on the way out, or see some light at the end of the tunnel my mind always pulls me back in. It’s torture. I’ve always been insecure about how I look and I find myself comparing myself at other males and it’s made my self esteem on the floor. I have a girlfriend and prior to this we had a future planned and talked about kids (we’re still young, but it felt so real), this all began to bubble when we stopped being intimate and the loss of my job. I don’t know anymore how to move on, every day feels like a chore. The intrusive thoughts telling me I’m in denial, constantly thinking about men I’ve felt insecure about their looks compared to mine wishing I looked like them plaguing my mind. The false attractions, prior to this i was comfortable in acknowledging good looking men. However now my mind takes this as evidence, every single thing in my past seems like some form of evidence. Not having male friends, the comparisons, being questioned about my sexuality from siblings. I’m sorry if this is reassurance, I am just needing to get some things of my chest. Every time I think about my first real attraction or girls I found pretty/attractive or I liked my mind is like your in denial and then I feel horrible about thinking those thoughts as I have my girlfriend. I miss just being with my girlfriend and not having these thoughts and feeling horrible. I feel like a fraud and a horrible partner. I’ve tried to accept maybe, maybe not, but something always comes back. These 4 months have been terrible. I want to sleep without horrible dreams, I want to eat. I want to feel like myself again. Thank you to anyone who reads this. Hope you’re strong too.
