Genuine question when you’re in a better mood does your thoughts kind of go away and you don’t notice them as much but when you’re in a bad mood they kind of over take your mind.

Definitely can relate. I think its affected by perception and mindset. Like there are times at work I'm like "let's do this I'm ready to own this!!!" And can tell my OCD to kick it to the curb but other days I'm like "wow why do I even show up here this is the worst ugh." My OCD loooooooves to attack when I'm in that negative state of mind. It's impossible to be happy 100% 24/7 but it's best to approach things with a positivity that will hopefully keep you in a good state of mind. You got this stay strong 💪💪💪

Yeah. OCD can be very black and white. Oftentimes for me, when things are all going well my OCD doesn’t bug me too much (probably mostly because I’m on meds.) When something goes wrong is generally when it flares up. It’s almost like “hey dude, you must not have been taking my advice and doing everything I tell you to do. Obviously since something bad happened you need to listen to me to prevent more bad things from happening.” Like “if everything isn’t perfect then you need to listen to me.”
