Does anyone else’s OCD seem to get worse in the morning when they’re still half asleep (especially if it’s identity related OCD)?

I’ve been having trouble sleeping for weeks. Mostly I just wake up so early now and it’s impossible to go back to sleep once I do. Also it’s a harsh reminder that your brain hasn’t gone anywhere 😂

Trying to sleep with OCD is the worst. I’m sorry you have to go through that. I definitely can understand the feeling of waking up and realizing your brain is still pulling it’s same old bs lol 😂

Yes, as. I come round to a state of consciousness my ocd is at its worst. Like someone banging on the door of your mind. I need to work my way into the day every time.
