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 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

I’ve had this feeling all day that I’m just gonna lose control because I’m not checking how I feel. I had this thought like oh well you wouldn’t be brushing your teeth or eating if you was gonna act on it and then I felt relief for a bit and now I’ve started getting thoughts like what’s the point in cleaning or eating if you’re gonna act on it & now I feel confused?? What’s going on

i’m trying to not let the thoughts bother me but it’s just so stressful. even me typing that feels like i’m lying when i know i’m not. i’m scared because even my therapist tells me that it’s just ocd, but in the back of my mind i slightly don’t believe her, and its making me scared that i AM like those people and im gonna act on something. sometimes in social moments i get a quick thought of me being an outcast because im like those people who are sick in the head and act on that stuff, and it just makes me feel like i truly am gonna eventually act on something. another thing that bothered me is earlier my mom yelled at me for not doing school work (it was well deserved im really slacking on it) and i had like no reaction to her screaming. it had me thinking what if i have no empathy etc etc, and what if i get mad that she yelled at me and i do something involving those thoughts. how do i TRULY know it’s ocd? like i try to remind myself and be like “dude, your therapist said it’s ocd, she isn’t wrong” but the back of my mind is like “she is wrong, it’s not ocd and she just happened to misdiagnose you. you are gonna act on those thoughts and it’s your fate”. please someone respond if you read all of this, im really struggling
