I get OCD about eating and drinking certain things. Anyone else?? Like my brain will tell me that it's poisoned or something. Help !

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.

I suffer with the same thing every day
