for me, my main tic is my neck/head jerking back and to the left, and sometimes my eyes close really hard and i clench my teeth while i do the head jerk haha! also when i’m really anxious i’ll hit myself in the head, which i think started as a kind of compulsion to “knock the thoughts out of my head” but now it’s just a tic. my tics come for like a week or two at a time, and they only really happen at night or when i’m really anxious, or if i think about the fact that i have tics sometimes that triggers them!

I have had tics since childhood, but worse since COVID... What I call OCD tics.... I shake my head to one side - like getting something out of my ear...thinking there is a bug (intrusive thoughts) turn head and touch temples (head near eye)- afraid of going crossed eyed (instrustive thought). Not OCD...might be something else...idk Anxiety one looks like I’m sneezing when I’m sometimes talking about something very distressing. Vocal tic - mouth clicking , usually alone when bored

hello everyone 🤍
i’ve been dealing with this “thing” since i was 15. (i’m 23 now) if i have a bad memory that i have done when i was really young or just an intrusive thought i feel like i need to tell my mom or boyfriend. it’s been on and off ever since but since January hit it’s been an everyday thing about the littlest things. mostly about my relationship. an example is i was talking to someone random at my job and we were talking about taxes and when im in deep thought or just thinking i do a thing where i bite my lip (not in the sexual way) and i had a thought when it happened “was that sexual?” and i felt like i did something wrong and i went for a while thinking that until i told my boyfriend about it. or like my ex’s face has popped up in my head in the most inappropriate times and i feel the need that i have to tell him. (my ex was not a good person) i feel like im a prisoner in my head everyday, trying to justify thoughts or remind myself that its just a thought. i didnt know that this was or could be a form of ocd. it runs in my family but i’ve just never considered it being this. i always called it anxiety or depression but i always felt like it is more than that.

Can you guys meditate or/and sit in silence?
My ocd gets so loud in the silence and right before bed when there’s no distractions. I always struggled with anxiety since my teens and guided meditation used to help… until OCD. First time trying guided meditation with OCD I had an intrusive thought of “what if you actually lose control and can’t follow these instructions?” And got even more anxious 🫠🫠🫠 had to stop, and haven’t tried to meditate ever since. Just curious to know. Sometimes I feel like I have the worst type of OCD. It will latch onto anything to make me anxious!
