Yes!! I’ve spent the whole day making sure I look at everything so that an equal amount of light comes into both my eyes (this is the hardest thing to explain!) For example, if I looked at something bright from my left side, I have to turn around and look at it with my right side and keep turning until it feels like I’ve reached an equilibrium. I also have to straighten anything that seems out of line in public (so that’s particularly humiliating.) I completely understand the need for symmetry Ellaaaax, so frustrating! d a i s y

Omg this is same as me, I have to look in like form of 4 at everything, it’s annoying because i look bloody mental doing it lmao but oh well. I do it with touching things too, like if I touch something with one hand, I’ll also touch it will the other too. It’s so weird lmao

Ohhh same!! I look like a complete weirdo! At least we can see the funny side of it I guess and have a little giggle at ourselves every now and then hehe. I also have to do it a “special” number of times - so bad! I hate to hear you’re going through this, but it’s so nice to be able to confide in someone who understands exactly what it’s like. d a i s y

Omg both of you just made my day, even though maybe it's weird to say it since we're all suffering here!! :/ I have to have the same amount of AIR in both my eyes even, and light too. So I have to open them the same amount the same amount of times! I have to do everything an even amount of times (usually 4) but because this is sacred, and I hate waking up, I have to set my alarm to an odd number time so that an even number doesn't become tainted. At least I am laughing typing this out!!! Maybe by being able to laugh at the absurdity of it all will help us

I can totally relate Tay! Know you’re not alone because I definitely know exactly how you feel. Especially the eye thing, I’ve never met someone who understands it like you! So annoying but definitely kinda funny when you think about it. We always have each other! d a i s y

My OCD has never been this strong, it's so real, it feels like it will never go away, it's never been this strong for me and it's very scary.

Yes. You may be confused but that is literally what my brain is hyperfixating on right now. Less than a millimeter. I’ve done too much google searching today and now I feel like my teeth are gonna fall out. Can someone help me or give me advice to get over this? I’m not trying to ask for reassurance but do your teeth move very slightly too? I already made a dentist appointment because I’m so freaked out. I hate ocd.

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?
