What I do is remove all junk food and replace it with healthy “junk”food..if it’s not there you don’t eat it..btw make sure you test yourself. Sometimes high sugars can build your anxiety worst. I also noticed that using natural remedies like kava, ashwagandha, etc. have helped me a lot to get back to relax.. no lie to you I was suffering for months until I looked for help in natural remedies. Also writing it down your thoughts helps you heal more. Don’t stress to stop yourself from eating though. Take it step my step.

I find that I go to extremes. Either I follow an extremely strict diet so that I can loose weight or I'm binging. There's no in between. I want to not care about my weight anymore. It's annoying me to the max. If I go over my calorie goal then I feel I HAVE to ruin it "all the way" so I can restart, but that's been EVERYDAY. I have pcos so it's making my hormones go completely wack. I'm breaking out horribly and having major mood swings.

@WillingEngine Unfortunately for me after I stopped intermittent fasting I started binging. I was doing it for all the wrong reasons though.

@WillingEngine I think for me the intermittent fasting is what got the ball rolling for the binging

Hey guys! So I struggle with OCD, especially harm, relationship and moral stuff and I am somewhat recovered now. However, my current girlfriend has started showing signs of OCD but it’s abou5 something I don’t know much about so I wanted to see if anyone on here had thoughts about it. She is constantly thinking about food (when to eat it, what is healthy, what is too much, what is too little) and controls the thoughts by giving in and controlling her entire day around food. She don’t really know the feeling of being full. She never starved herself and always eats, but then she feels extremely guilty afterwards. Her thoughts do have to do a lot with her body image and not gaining weight but also not losing any either. Does this sound like ocd or an eating disorder?

I don’t know how to stop confessing. It’s driving me insane. I confess every little thing to my boyfriend. I confessed that I liked attention (this is so obviously human), that I liked it when people found me pretty (also very human??) I confessed about a million other things and I feel out of control. I felt so safe with him last night that it just started pouring out of me. I felt guilty and awful and I just needed release, I couldn’t breathe I felt like I was dying. I’m stuck in a confessing loop and I know I’m only making things worse. Has anyone experienced this and been able to overcome it? It feels absolutely horrible and impossible. I tried to ERP this and I genuinely feel like I am suffocating if I hold off. I feel so disappointed in myself, but I can’t seem to stop. I even had a dream where I confessed to him and woke up needed to confess that. I’m scared I’ll start sharing my worst intrusive thoughts I’ve had if I feel too safe around my bf. Help please :(

I know a few of you saw my posts about my ERP and the googling urges. That didn’t end up going well. My therapist actually decided we needed to halt it for now. The thing is it’s almost like I learned googling is harmless from those few exercises and my brain keeps generating more things to google. Normally I would just spiral and be done but now I can barely hold back from searching for long. I eventually give in. I’m horrified because it feels like I want to find illegal content. I swear on everything I am, I don’t want to find anything even close to it. I’m freaking out because I don’t understand what’s happening. I keep compulsively searching/testing/checking or idk. I keep remembering details and I feel like I need to google again to be sure of something. I feel absolutely insane can someone please help me??? I’m petrified I’m going to get in trouble.
