SAME. My HOCD has been worse than it has in a long time because of my period.

My ocd is literally 5x worse now. I'm thinking about calling people up to ask about events from many years ago. I think I'll better wait until the pms fog is gone before I make any decisions🤷♀️👀

@washie Ditto. I was sobbing the other night because I was scared that writing fanfic with a female friend made me gay.

Wow thank you!! Very much appreciated!❤️👍🏻 Lots of good tips here! I've turned on the "night mode" on my computer and iPhone, so every night at 9 pm the blue light gets blocked.👍🏻 Ironically I'm upset about lack of sleep, and yet here I am checking my iPhone at 02:45 am!😐 Better habits starting from tomorrow!!😁 I'll try to get some 💤💤 now! Thanks again and have a great evening/night!!🐢🌙 😊

I have 1 tip back btw!😁 Epsom salt foot baths!! SO relaxing! It's magnesium sulfate in powder form. You add it to your foot bath and it absorbs through the skin!👍🏻 :)

PMS making OCD and Anxiety worse
Currently having an anxious night because my hormones are doing whatever they want before my cycle starts. It's so frustrating. I feel very, very on edge and like I'm constantly anxious about something bad happening. Also been nauseous and having sleep issues. So irritating. How does everyone else deal with the spike in anxiety and OCD before periods? I'm seeing an endocrinologist on Monday to try and help but I feel so stressed out.

panicking so bad
I want to rip out my uterus. Only my hormones can make my OCD and ability to manage it go back to square one. I am spiraling *so* hard. I cannot breathe. My PMDD is going crazy. I’m having a panic attack again. I feel so scared. The POCD is going absolutely insane right now. It feels undeniably real, and my mind keeps drifting to those awful thoughts and what feels like exploring them?? but I can’t for the life of me stop some of these compulsions right now. I was trying to watch something to get my mind off of this but ended up getting triggered twice, so my anxiety is a 10 and I can’t seem to calm down. This panic attack is tuned all the way up.

OCD brain damage?
I feel like OCD has destroyed my brain relative to where I was before it. Headaches, worse memory, brain fog, mental fatigue, etc. How scary is that. Then I think "oh it's just 'cause you're worrying about that and it's temporary" Thing is, what happens when the temporary becomes the new normal? I hate this sh**
