I think there's a lot of overlap. It may be OCD related, or even borne out of ocd, but may be its own thing as well. Same with things like Major Depressive Disorder. I can relapse into a depressive episode via acting on compulsions, but that's not the only way. It's like a huge, shitty, almost unknowable Venn Diagram.

This is not for reassurance btw! I was talking with a friend of mine about our disorders, she has depressive and anxiety issues while I'm saving for an therapist who can take me seriously I told her about my suspects of ocd and she told me she also had ocd and she's now cured, and I was like uhhhh it's that possible you get cured just like that??? She told she has the compulsions of checking the stove was off, the lights were off and eating her nails, then she said her therapist told her ocd is provoke by anxiety which is something I get but I'm not sure at all you just can erase ocd just like that and also provoke it. Like, is not an switch who you can turn on and off I know anxiety makes people to have certains compulsions but once again I'm just here to ask Sorry if this sounds mean, I'm here to learn

I’ve been triggered so bad this week I’ve had bad anxiety and feel depression coming on. Last night I had a thought oh let’s plan it and I immediately thought why would I think that and started crying bad. I’ve had these thoughts for 7 months I really don’t know why I’m having these thoughts, if I knew I would work on it. Like people say has something happened in your life for you to have these thoughts and nothing has happened, it all started off from what if thoughts , like “what if I’m a psycho” because I saw this fb post saying introverts are more likely to become psychopaths and it all spiralled from there I started getting thoughts about harm towards others and myself. What do you think guys should I treat it like ocd or do you think there’s something seriously wrong with me.
