If it goes on longer than just a day I suggest going to the doctor? Bodies get weird sometimes, they’re not perfect so it could just be a random incidence but it never hurts to get checked out! ?

When I’m incredibly Anxious or my ocd and intrusive thoughts are making me distressed and panicked I’ve noticed I jerk of twitch my arm I don’t know why I think it may be an overwhelming wave of anxiety that my body just doesn’t know how to cope with. Try not to over think the Tourette’s idea because your ocd may hold on to that and use it as a new obsession. If it continues or gets worse over a long period of time then have a chat wit your doctor. It is most likely anxiety, anxiety makes the body do all sorts of weird things so don’t worry too much!

I can’t diagnose, but, This kind of body sensation awareness is a common one for me when OCD is flared up, casting a giant magnifying glass on body experiences and in most cases spurring on more of the condition. The condition cedes when it can’t traction in my mind. It get’s lets traction not because I’ve eliminated all possibility of it being something worse, but because I’ve just let it be snd moved forward onto something else

Guys I need help. I feel so alone . Basically I have this compulsion where I feel the need to write everything but this stems from me being anxious about EVERYTHING. Like my mom came in my room and I was irritated and snapped, immediately regretted now I keep writing “don’t be mean to mom next time” but I keep thinking about it. Then I think about how I finally left my house today and all the surfaces I touched that could’ve been contaminated and now I’m writing “next time don’t touch this and this”. Then I think about all the things I need to be doing for this week and I’m writing “don’t forget to do this and this” even though I’ve written it 5 times already. This is what happens everyday btw. My brain always thinks about something I need to be doing and making me anxious that I’ll forget it which is why I write it down on my notes app. I’m sooo mentally exhausted I need help pls!! Anyone have any advice ? I used to think I need to stop the writing but really I need to stop the anxious thoughts coming into my head . People say I need to accept the thoughts and let it go but that’s too hard for me

I have the thought of what if I lose control and do something out of my control like scream for no reason or yelling in a store or just blurting stuff out that’s not in my control and it causes so much anxiety and causes me to feel weird. I always think I’m on the edge of losing control of myself and it’s exhausting living like this. Any tips?

Two things are happening: I get thoughts that just keep looping. They almost feel like song stuck in my head. Also, I’ll imagine something and I feel my stomach drop. Then as the seconds go by I keep getting fragments of the this thought but with different details. For example, it’s kinda like how a “vision” is portrayed. I’ll get a glimpse of the thought and then it’ll rapidly expand into something worse every few seconds. I don’t know if I’m causing this or if it’s just an automatic thing like any other intrusive thought. It feels unavoidable, idk if this is a compulsion or if it’s just another manifestation of an intrusive thought. Apart from that remembering an intrusive thought triggers the full thought again and then it just keeps looping or expanding. I don’t know how to stop any of this. Help?
