Some days it’s impossible to believe I even have OCD... like my mind won’t stop doubting “what if you don’t have ocd” “what if you are pretending” :/

When i found out about OCD, lot of things what i read, were related to me, and i was like "oh, my thoughts are because of that". But i still tried to not self diagnose myself. I downloaded this app maybe 30 minutes ago and when i read more things here, i had same reaction, "this is because of that too" and this is why i think that i really have OCD. Maybe i am wrong but i don't think so. Try to take a look your thoughts when you finding out things about ocd, because if you really have, lots of things will be relatable for you. Idk if it helps you or not but i hope you will be better soon 💜 i hope you don't have, but if you have, always remember that you can handle it! ❤️

I relate to a lot of things that most ocd suffers do - but my brain is still like “well what if you’re different” “what if you’re the expection” and it’s so frustrating

@cc97 I guess this is a trap which ocd is making.

@vu Are u diagnosed ?

@cc97 No, i am not

@vu Me either, I think that plays a lot into this. Thinking back I displayed ocd symptoms even as a child - and I have been dealing with my current themes for almost 2 years now

@cc97 Yes, you are right, this is really important. I have ocd symptoms from childhood too and i found out last year that those things were most likely to be ocd.

You have no idea how common this is for ocd sufferers. Almost everyone worries about it at some point
