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

I hate feeling constantly conflicted no matter what. I have noticed with food intake, I find myself going back and forth between obsessing over eating too much and fear of gaining any weight to obsessing over eating too little and fear of losing an unhealthy amount of weight and the negative consequences of such. I am getting married this year and continuously think about how I need to be mindful and not eat too much since I need to fit into my dress and feel confident on my wedding day, as I don’t want to look back at pics and be unhappy with how I look. But I also think about how if I don’t eat enough, I will look too thin and will not be confident in myself, and will look back and be unhappy. Idk. It is so hard because I am always trying to figure out what is “right” but it feels like there is no “right.” And I have a really hard time recognizing what my body ACTUALLY looks like physically, not really knowing how I appear to others

Does anyone else get fixated on one “topic” with their ocd?? like for me trains and guns are mine. like i’m scared of trains and im scared to be around guns because that’s what triggers my ocd and makes me convince me that that is the way to go. i literally worry myself into thinking im going to sh*t myself when i don’t even have a gun but my ocd convinces me. idk if im explaining it good, but its a real struggle. just need some tips & advice

Does anyone else ever feel like they don’t feel “bad enough” to have OCD, or that they don’t feel “the right way” for it? Or like they’re just saying they have OCD as an excuse? Because i was so much better for like 3 weeks now and now im on my period and i started doubting again. So because of that im scared that i was feeling to good and that my fear is actually true.
