Definitely ocd. Are you looking and being hyper aware about feeling if you have to pee?

basically. like i’ll just be laying in bed and the thought simply the bathroom would pop into my head and then it turns into “i might have to go pee right now, i should go to make sure i empty out my bladder and not go to sleep with anything in my system” but the second i go to the bathroom and go pee there’s literally little to no pee coming out of me!!!

Hi Kinoko! I also have struggled with an overactive blatter which I do believe to be OCD/mentally caused, but there can also be physical attributions caused by stress and anxiety (hai OCD 👋🏻). This can cause your pelvic floor to become really tight and that can cause your bladder to be overactive. Mentally, you have to train your brain to accept the physical discomfort and maybe even mentally throw up your ends and be like "you know what I'm just gonna pee my pants." You can also look into getting an evaluation from a pelvic floor physical therapist and they can help determine if you're tight/clenching a lot.

I have a similar issue whenever my ocd is acting up more than usual and I'm super stressed. I normally notice it when I'm resisting compulsions for my main theme. So basically it'll be night time and I won't even have to pee, but my ocd voice will think "well what if you DO end up having to pee? What if you end up wetting the bed, that'd be embarrassing wouldn't it?" And then I'll forget myself to pee even if I dont have to

i see what you mean. except with me i get this physical sensation that i have to pee, but the moment i go pee little to nothing comes out of me. so i feel like my brain is tricking me and making me become super self aware of my blatter

I do this too but after learning that you can mess up your bladder and then really end up having to pee all the time I’ve cut it back. There is actually something called double voiding. You pee. Stand up maybe wiggle or walk around a min and then pee again. Completely relaxed no forcing. Then all pee is out. I know you may still feel like it’s not but it is. Then you just have to ignore going back.

I have done this my whole life which tells me I’ve had ocd my whole life. I’ll go to the bathroom 3 times in a row just to make sure I got it all out right before bed and it drives me crazy

I’m really struggling with something related to me ocd, and I would appreciate kind and supportive advice. If you can’t relate or don’t think anything you have to say would be helpful, I kindly ask pls refrain from commenting this is a really sensitive topic for me. Recently, I’ve noticed a pattern that feels something extremely new and distressing. The first time it happened I remember telling myself before self pleasuring that I am in control no matter what thought comes into my mind because I wanted to prove to myself that these thoughts are just from OCD and I know who I am and an intrusive that came out of no where, and i suddenly felt an intense fear that I was acting on it. In the moment I genuinely felt like I did. And afterword, I panicked and started questioning myself. This SAME FEELING has happened three times in a row each time, the intrusive thought was unwanted and random, and completely against my morals most recently it involved pocd and it feels even worse because it generally felt like I acted on it the thought in the moment while I was self pleasuring the panic doesn’t hit until afterwards when I stop :/ I start thinking that maybe I generally made a mistake and I’m now just realizing that it’s wrong because it generally feels like that :( but when I actually think about it again goes against my morals and values doesn’t make sense it feels incredibly real, and I can’t seem to shake this feeling off that I may have acted on it I’m terrified because I never wanted these thoughts in the first place. And I definitely didn’t choose them. If I had known, I would’ve had these intrusive thoughts I wouldn’t have self pleasured in the first place but it’s extremely hard to convince myself that this may be OCD because I feel like I have no other reason to believe that I didn’t act on it :/

I need advice. I’m constantly washing my hands after going to the bathroom/touching something I find gross, but it doesn’t stop at just washing. I have to keep washing til I feel right (usually 3-4 times). It also isn’t just my hands, I go all the way up my forearms. I know in my head that once is enough. But I can’t kick this repetitive behavior. I know I should just start only washing it once but I don’t know if I can handle the panic that will come after. I need advice/tips if anyone’s gone through something similar what worked for you. Im just sick of this
