There’s an issue with the premise. The notion of needing someone to help means that we’re legitimizing the problem to begin with. What I’m saying is the distress signal in the brain that you experience isn’t in your control, just what you do with the fact that it appeared. It can feel intense, unpleasant, ‘real’, or any other adjective we can conjure, but it is still just a signal. It’s like hearing someone yelling outside your bedroom window. You can choose open the window and argue with them, or you can choose to ignore it because it’s not important. What’s important to realize is that IS something you can choose. So, right now, you can choose to take this signal seriously and plead online for help to stop feeling a certain feeling. Or you can decide you’re capable of handling this and you’re going to let it do what it needs to do because it isn’t important.
This is amazing, and what my step dad tells me to help me through triggers. Carl, have you considered being an OCD coach or specialist?
@sheeby I have, although probably not for many years.
Yes, I get every word of you. But these time it feels different. It is like about bdsm. They talk about some things, which I find kinda exciting. It really fears me. I feel like i will do in real life, i feel like i must live that kind of life as many bdsm loving people do. But thats not for me, It is totally different from the life I want. And there is another point too. I am kinda different from other straight men, I like being submissive and degrading. I dont know why I like it, but it is part of me. But I have read some things about those issues, they talk about cross dressing and being bisexual. I dont really want to be do any of them. But i think that there are so many signs, at least for crossdressing (not for bisexuality) still I dont want to wear as woman or act as woman. But like I am a litttle bit feminene, so it really makes me fearful. I am so scared
@agriculturalindustries None of what you said changes my original post.
@NOCD Advocate - Carl Cornett but they sound so real, there are evidences. I am not myself anymore
@agriculturalindustries Still doesn’t change it. Feeling or sounding real isn’t being real.
Don’t google. With an anxious brain it is horrible! I’ve been where you are before. I convinced myself once that I was a pedophile and was bawling because I didn’t want to die, but was convinced I had to kill myself. You need to go take a walk. Or sit in a blanket and listen to calming music. You need to get out of this highly anxious state first and then you can focus on furthering your recovery.
The point is I wasnt anxious at all. I was just surfimg the web and I came across with that.
How would you like someone to help?
I dont know, sir. I just don't know what to do anymore. I just want dont want to live anymore. That is so hard, I have been doing well. But I read some things on the web, they triggered me so much. I cant handle these anymore. I just wabt to be happy, I am so young. I want to be myself again. I dont know who am I.
@agriculturalindustries Please Sir say something.
Carl Cornett, Sir are you there?
Try journalising ur thoughts on paper or i don’t know if u have cbd or some sort or relaxer.
im having a big big panic attack right now and i cant even calm down. i get extreme anxiety when i know that someone is irritated at me . my ocd thoughts are going crazy. im not peaceful to be around . all i cause is irritation. please someone help . i cant stop crying
I am struggling so bad with relationship ocd. I am so scared and filled with anxiety. I just wanna talk to someone who also deals with this 😞
I am freaking out with panic. It feels like I want to or have to hurt my boyfriend and it’s causing me to have the worst panic attack I’ve had in a while. It feels like I should be in a mental institution and all I want to do is cry. I know at a time like this I need to lean into the anxiety but I’m absolutely terrified. Please. Anyone. Words of wisdom or encouragement. It feels so different than normal and of course I’m so worried this is not OCD. how could it be? It’s so convincing and scary.
