You don’t. OCD wants you to figure it out, but you have to sit with the uncertainty. If you ruminate on your thoughts it’ll only confuse you more and bring you more anxiety

@lizardgurl I understand that it’s hard, but you have to try to not figure it out. You shouldn’t be making crazy life altering decisions when you’re having an OCD episode. Work on the OCD first and then once you’re in recovery you’ll have a better idea of which thoughts are real and which aren’t

@lizardgurl I had thoughts like that but the way I dissolve the thought is to think have I ever wanted to properly change genders and was I happy doing so

My ocd feels like a constant questioning. It feels like doubts. They feel quick and awful and like they aren’t coming from me. They’re always lies. It’ll get easier with the help you receive.

Intrusive thoughts
I struggle so bad with intrusive thoughts. They can be so bad that I'll cry because I KNOW that's not how I feel or want to do. (Too embarrassed to say what they're about) I'll constantly try to figure out why I have them, and constantly figure out what they mean, causing me to constantly circle around and around. I had to get on anxeity meds, which helped a little but the thoughts still happen. How do you help yourself with this? How do you know that you're just not some physcopath? 😅

Advice ROCD
How do you guys get past the anxiety? I feel like my thoughts are the only thing that control my mind. So often I feel like I should just leave my partner even tho I love them so much because I just feel like these thoughts are too much. I over analyze everything. I feel so stuck and defeated. I just want to be normal. I feel so toxic for the thoughts that I have
