Does anyone else ever get obsessions where you worry that your OCD isn’t real or isn’t bad enough to be OCD?

I worry that what I'm worrying about is real and OCD is an excuse

Yea, for one, this is a common symptom and I have been feeling that way lately because I've been destroying my intrusive thoughts left and right and am between getting to my next obstacles/obsession but have to transition into the greater risks that come with that. This is why I feel not sick enough. But there are only two options really. Either I stand up and do something about the disorder to minimize its impact on my life as much as possible or I get along with it and don't complain. I think there's still a lot that I have to tackle and smash so I know what I'm gonna do. Shit, this sounds so fucking heroic. Just got done watching some anime. ?

Raphael I’ll have to look into usagi drop! The FMA I’ve seen I really liked I just haven’t gotten back into it again. Thanks for the advice and the recommendations.

I used to wonder the same thing.

I worry about this all the time! I thought I was the only one with this feeling and that I shouldn’t be bothering others when I don’t feel right.

Rollt1805 me too but I think that I still worry about the first thing more

raphael hahaha yeh I know what you mean though. What anime? I’m looking for a new one

Oh, well. I didn't watch anything new, because I can't afford crunchyroll and I feel too guilty watching on pirating pages. So I have to be happy with whatever anime free legal streaming platforms provide me with. ? I've been rewatching full metal alchemist: brotherhood, ToraDora, Danmachi and lo and behold shinchan. That little fucker has never been an appropriate character for a children's show. Hahaha I want to rewatch your lie in April so bad. It will destroy me again, but that's fine.

Raphael yeh I think I’m gonna watch your lie in April soon, my friends keep talking about it. And I watched some of FMA brotherhood because it’s on Netflix but I keep having other things I want to watch more. I’ve only been watching anime for a year so I’m still desperately trying to keep up. And I’m a sitcom enthusiast too so a lot of the time I’m just watching those.

I forgot to mention one that even helped me in wanting to grow up more, it's called usagi drop. I smiled through nearly every episode. I even told my therapist about and she was like That must've been one wild anime.

FMA is one of my favorite anime's ever. The plot is beyond good.

Jill, I read this article one year ago and it helped me a lot, https://themighty.com/2017/04/ocd-doubting-disease/
