I think I might relate with what you’re talking about. Has anyone suggested to you that it may be dissociation/derealization/depersonalization? I’m not in your head so this might not be entirely right, I just thought I’d give you a possibility.

No nobody did tbh. I don't even know how to explain to anyone because it's very hard to explain. I tried telling my doctor and he told me these are the side effects of my medication. I don't know I'm just confused.

@Miro Yeah it’s a really hard feeling to describe. You just feel so out of it and not all there while you negative emotions are heightened to the max. It basically messes with your view of the world and kinda causes you to feel detached from everything

OCD is really commonly comorbid with other diagnoses, especially depression. I have both of these. Hardly surprising really considering how debilitating and horrid OCD is.

I don't really feel that much depression or anxiety but than in itself makes lean more towards having negative emotions. Like I can cry and shed tears but when I do I don't really feel much pain weirdly enough. I don't know if I'm making sense. It's like I feel kinda numb somewhat. I don't really know if I'm happy or sad or if I have gotten better or worse. Just so many things going through my head that I can't really explain. I can't even determine exactly what makes me anxious or if I explain it to anyone especially my doctor. I just hate my life right now. The worst feeling is that I'll never get back to normal and that's literally all I'm hoping for. I just want myself back ffs.

@Miro same! i don’t even know if i’m getting better or worse. it feels like i’m getting better and worse at the same time bc one day my ocd won’t be that bad and another day it will be rly intense. i also get overwhelmed by so many thoughts in my head i just want to end it all. i’m also scared i’ll never get back to normal but remember it’s not going to be like this forever. i know exactly how you feel and you’re not alone

@cyb3rgurl I also feel like I'm getting better and worse at the same time. It's very weird.

i have been diagnosed with OCD & generalized anxiety disorder. for some reason, i’ve been very hyper aware of everything. like the way i talk, the way i see the world, how certain things sound/look/feel, and it’s very distressing. i feel like the hyper awareness makes me afraid of things? like for some reason, my mind attached to cartoons, and i was hyperfocusing on it, and got extremely scared, like scared of the cartoon for no reason? i’ve done this a lot, and i get scared i have psychosis or schizophrenia, or something that makes you afraid of things for no unknown reason. i feel so scared that this is my new normal…. im heartbroken. so many what if’s. did i just ruin my own life?? 💔

I feel different from others, I don’t feel as feminine and I feel like I’ve changed. I’m not sure why I feel this way. I also don’t think my ocd is ocd, it’s just something I told myself to feel better. I know! What if I am what if I’m not, I get it, but I don’t feel like i have a choice in the matter anymore. I have soocd and it’s eaten me alive for years. I woke up out of my sleep and got triggered and here I am. I don’t know what I feel anymore. I always wanted a boyfriend and now It seemed to change. I don’t want a girlfriend, it’s just that I don’t see anything for myself and I feel like I’m hiding. It’s hard to explain. Plus sometimes the way I move or speak makes me feel more masculine and it kills me. Im feeling so lost and alone right now. I know what I want deep down but I feel incapable of having those things because I won’t be able to have feeling. If that makes sense.
