I think after treatment, we also have the ability to think more flexibility than other people will ever be able to

we are over thinkers, but sometimes that leads us (me personally) do actually say and do stupid shit

I guess "brilliant" works, but I sometimes wonder if I can truly call myself creative. All I write is fanfiction--writing using someone else's characters and worlds. And even then, I use random generators and writing prompts. Doesn't sound too creative to me.

Why are you guys being so judgemental of yourselves!!!!! Go back and post something positive about yourself instead.

So I just joined and I’ve been reading through this forum. And I feel a strong sense of compassion for everyone here. Reading about people’s OCD concerns shows me that people with OCD may be particularly sensitive and caring. I have struggled with OCD since I was a kid, but having compassion for other people’s OCD is helping me have compassion for myself. Maybe that perspective might help another person. If we can have grace for another person, we can give ourselves grace as well. I’m working on self forgiveness and gentleness when normally I beat myself up for my intrusive thoughts

I think we have to separate our OCD from our personality in order to treat it properly, yet at the same time some people say it's neurodivergent. And thats more accepting view, like when people say autism is just a different way of looking at things. But OCD makes you miserable so how can it be part of neurodivergent?

It kinda mind boggling to me how OCD can even cause stuff to happen to us physically as well. And it all feeling real. It only reminds me how flawed our bodies really are. If people were to hear of our situations they'd call us names and choose to stay ignorant. People fear what they cannot understand. Before this I could have possible have been one of them, but here I am. OCD really goes for anybody. Does not matter what ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation you are. It is a twisted disorder that likes to make others lives harder. If I were to tell myself before this that this would happen, I would'nt believe it. I was convinced I am evil, I cried for weeks. I had to sleep in my parents bedroom for a period of time cause I couldn't face the darkness alone. This application helped me greatly during this, cause I learned just as much about OCD as I did about myself. At the same time I get saddened cause I see people going through the exact same, or much worse. If any who come across this post have any questions for me, u can feel free to do so
