I don't want to wait until it's over because my periods usually last long (a week or so).
To me it does get worst my anxiety you know because of your hormones my OCD gets worse all my constant thoughts get worse it depends you know in the state of mind that you’re at if you’re stressed out you know I’m a person but when I start PMS thing I get very emotional I start stressing more I start you know I’m worrying more and that’s what creates my OCD if you’re not alone at all I’m going through it too but what I can tell you is what helps me to control my OCD thoughts what helps me to remain calm is keep myself active mentally Try to hear good affirmations morning affirmations of OCD patterns Binaural Beats are great for OCD because it triggers something in the brain that calms you down for me it really really works and I will put the link for you I know what it is suffer from OCD I lived with it all my life and it’s not easy bless your beautiful heart it’s going to be fine you can message me anytime

Oh thank you
Ugh, I feel like it depends on so much. Periods and hormones can make all sorts of things flare, but unpredictability so. I usually don’t want my period to get in my way and trudge on, but in reality, I also plan things around it too. It depends how demanding this project is and how strong you feel to fight your OCD. I feel ya on this, especially with the perfectionism OCD too... Comfort and strength your way. 💪🏼💜
Thank you for that. I do think my periods are extremely easy compared to what I hear from others. I don't I ever had my mood swing because of it and I rarely feel any pain. I think I'll try working on the project tomorrow and if ocd ruins it I'll wait, I guess
@Retseknal5 That sounds like a great plan! And also sounds like great practice for self-awareness. Sending you good hormone vibes!
Does being on my period or having upcoming menstrual symptoms worsen my OCD symptoms? Is it because of the added pain, or the added chemicals in my body? Anyone else experience this?
I’ve recently been on my period and it’s like hell I’ve been having 3-4 panic attacks each day and I wonder if it’s my OCD getting worse or if it’s my period since I tend to get very sensitive during my week.. do you also go through heightened stress/anxiety when on your period? I’ve notice this happens a lot when it’s my time of the month. I’ve also been very paranoid.
Hi friends, Everytime my period comes around my ocd tends to get worse. Just curious if anyone else deals with this and if you have any tools/tips on how to deal?
