yes i get that too, mine started like last year after i had a bad high from smoking too much weed one night and having a panic attack. and i haven’t smoked since but i started thinking my food and drinks were edibles (ridiculous ik) and i avoided drinks from other people and food. that turned into me thinking my food was just poisoned. i haven’t gotten over it yet i still get those thoughts but i just eat the food anyway but i get a lot of anxiety doing so

That’s the thing about anxiety — it will latch on to ANYTHING— so yours at the moment is food being poisoned. Mine has run the gamut oh my god it’s always something new! Never been worried about food tho but there is still time :P I’ve stressed over simple stuff such as taking lunch breaks at work (“I’ll be fired”) or drinking beer while I’m on a diet/ exercise kick (“I’ll be a fat lard forever”) so it’s just so fluid I tell ya... reading about other people’s obsessions kind of helps put yours in perspective and maybe see how foolish the thoughts really are!

@ramona THATS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO ME! ever since I had the panic attack after being high and it all went down hill from there. That's when my OCD flared up.

Does any one else struggle with eating when on a ocd spiral ( that’s what I call them ) I go through periods where I can’t stand the feeling of food in my body but idk I smoke weed and that helps the thought to go purge everything I don’t know if that’s my ocd or a eating disorder 🫠

I have an ocd over food. I can not feel full if i don't have the last grains of rice and I should count. Before, I got a real bad stomach ache and nausea so I should eat on track. But one of my weirdness appears as time goes on that thing I mentioned and how I have to wait until certain time to swallow and digest the food. It's as if I keep myself for not reccuring anymore. It's so strange, if I don't follow it I would get sleepy and can not concentrate. It's like time really matters to me. And my head becomes weird if I don't listen to it. I wanna fight it but I think I can't. There are times even when I got staggered and wanna fall. Anyone here fighting over food ocd and signals in your head?
