For me it’s anorexia and when it is thrown into the mix of OCD it’s extremely hard...but what I have found has helped me tremendously is this quote “workout bc u love ur body, not because u hate it” maybe this can help u???

Totally feel u there!!! I have had the same thoughts and done the same things....Skipping breakfast will not help skipping meals in general will not help...it’s not the food it’s not ur body it’s what’s underneath it’s what is really going on what are u avoiding/ need to deal with...if you eat regularly throughout the day and keep consistent then you can work on processing the anxieties and not using maladaptive coping mechanisms....fuel ur brain so that u can recover and find out what is being buried...ask yourself whats the deeper meaning behind why I feel the way I do...Ik it’s hard trust me I have gone through it for years and still every so often...have u considered seeing a therapist...they could really help u...hope this helpa

So much! But I feel eating compulsions all the time, like if I don’t eat something bad will happen. It’s a nightmare.

Each week I’m obsessing over something new but with no anxiety so I find it hard to realise it’s ocd at the moment I would say weight is my main one especially my stomach I feel like I look pregnant and compare myself to other people saying I’m not as big as them or sometimes if I miss breakfast because I feel sick I’m like why am I not losing weight later on in the evening saying I thought kissing breakfast would help

Advice please!
I have been really battling with my SO OCD, and I’ve recently started to have a ton of wins!!! I’m really excited about it, but as I’ve noticed myself not engaging as much… different things have popped up. Now im obsessed with people’s perception on me, and them looking at me and thinking by how I walk, how I talk, what I wear, how I move… that I am gay? And am so convinced everyone thinks that and “knows something that I don’t”. Is that typical with OCD? If so, any ERP advice on how to overcome these thoughts?

Heyyyy!
So my OCD has been bad lately. I’ve been ruminating and obsessing over my sexuality again. And it just keeps getting worse. I hate it so much. I try to sit with the discomfort but then my ocd does the backdoor spike. And the groinal response is what keeps me looped. It SUCKS. I am not attracted to men, but my OCD is trying SO hard to convince me that I am. There have been days where I’m just so mentally exhausted that I “accept” what my ocd tells me and I just walk around a hollow, lethargic shell. But then I rethink it and I feel better. It feels like I can only find my TRUE self when I tire my nervous system out enough that it literally breaks down and has me suicidal and hopeless. And then accepting my OCD’s “truth” (that I’m attracted to men) feels like a burden and a chore. I woke up today from an OCD dream, tried to go back to sleep, and my stomach kept cramping bc I was so anxious and ruminating over my intrusive thoughts. I’m starting to doubt it being OCD anymore. My brain is too tired to fight and cry about it anymore.

Eating and ocd
Does any one else struggle with eating when on a ocd spiral ( that’s what I call them ) I go through periods where I can’t stand the feeling of food in my body but idk I smoke weed and that helps the thought to go purge everything I don’t know if that’s my ocd or a eating disorder 🫠
