Also for me, I used to be very scared of flying and I had a ton of compulsions. Counting to ten. Touching the plane before entering, playing music at a certain time and playing games at a certain time, if I ever violated these, my thoughts told me we would crash.

I see a lot of HOCD, POCD, and sexual intrusive thoughts. Ive never dealt with any of those. I rarely see contamination OCD. Yet supposedly its one of the more common OCD themes ?

Relationship intrusions. Getting worried with friends so you blow up their phone by calling or texting. Asking questions over and over again about a person and getting different answers from the actual person. Wanting the truth and feeling if I don’t have the truth all get emotional and that’s the worst circumstance to me

I have several. Mainly I worry about people not liking me and that makes me not like myself. The other one is I’m always afraid of throwing up and I even get scared when people cough in a certain way.

I’ve had sexually intrusive thoughts about teachers when I was younger. I didn’t even realize that could’ve been OCD untill you said something @meloday_fair

I imagine people yelling at me all the time. It makes it hard to talk to people.

So you know how the more widely known ones have to do with keeping clean? My OCD did the opposite for me. When I was about 12, I only showered once a week because every time I got in the bathroom to shower I'd start having sexual intrusive thoughts about randomly stripping down in the middle of class and I would start thinking "well what if that's really what's happening and I only think I'm in the shower because I'm hallucinating or something?" Also for some reason my sexual intrusive thoughts most commonly include teachers. Its disgusting and I've never met anyone else who has that problem!

Used to avoid pools and sharp objects bc I was afraid I would drown myself or stab myself or someone else. Red is a “bad” color. Never been able to have bangs that swipe to one side or part my hair to one side, because it is asymmetrical and feels like the side with slightly more hair weighs like 10 more pounds? That whole half of my body throbs and aches. Anything to do with food, I am very leery of and will wash food/utensils over and over until they feel clean. I get panicked when my phone is at 66%. Even numbers and multiples of 5 are “right” and odd numbers are “bad.” And the list goes on...

Hi I kept seeing this app on repeat on TikTok over and over and I thought I give it a shot. I have never been diagnosed with OCD but I know that I have it. I’m a young adult and I found out the first time I had OCD was watching lelelons truth video? I was 14 at the time She had to resist sitting back down in a chair after her having sat down she started having a mental break down when she was told to resist. That’s when I knew. It started with myself going up and down a staircase twice buckling unbuckling my seat belt everytime I’m in the car ect I have always been super anti social but trying my best I can socialize but my mind wants to make it sexual with family and friends ughhhh I hate it because that’s not me when I graduated thoughts of hurting my loved ones corrupted my mind I broke down outside of church one time asking if this was really me or not i question if I’m a good enough friend or person in this world to begin with thinking everyone is judging me so so close how can I make this situation better did I do something wrong I struggle with depression as well not to bad but it’s there I come from a loving family but broken as well i believe in god and my OCD makes me go often he’s not real that stuff isn’t real no one is there to save you the list goes on. Anyway I struggle a lot and I really hope that this will help me because I feel extremely hopeless. Lucky for me I do have the ability to seek therapy and I am excited. The only person I ever tell my thoughts to is God no other human has heard so I’m really really hoping this helps me out if your reading this thank you it means a lot because this is my first time ever admitting all this it’s a lot to take in I know and I hope you are ok and that you have a great night and know that we got this

I find that the intrusive thoughts that hurt me the most are the quiet ones. The ones that, at a glance, can be hard to differentiate from your own thoughts. The louder thoughts are easy to diffuse, to say "maybe, maybe not" to but the quiet ones leave me ruminating for hours trying to figure out if they're mine or OCD's. They leave me feeling disconnected from those around me and even from myself. I can go from happily thinking about marrying my boyfriend in the future to feeling like I have never actually loved him in a matter of minutes all because a thought was a whisper rather than a scream. This is my first post and I'm not sure what I'm looking for in making it. Advice? To know I'm not alone? I guess if there's anything you feel the need to share I'd love to hear it.

Hi, I’m new to this app and newly diagnosed. Question for you all, What things did you normalize and do without a second thought that when diagnosed, you realized was actually your OCD? Mine was how concerned with germs I am. I hold my breath when I open a door so the rush of wind doesn’t infect my lungs from whatever is in the room. I thought everyone was really careful and concerned like me. But Ive learned it’s not normal the lengths I go to. What was yours?
