I hate how people treat such a terrible awful crippling illness like a joke. This illness destroys relationships, people, and even lives, and people treat it like it's some habit, or some thing people choose to have. It's more than just cleaning or organizing. For me I'm crippled every day from the anxiety my thoughts give me and makes my days so hard š

i donāt š as much as i hate what she said, i know she didnāt mean any harm by it. i wish she knew way more about OCD tho, bc then she would understand how frustrating hearing something like that is to those who suffer with it.

@queen of ruminating Sorry if I offended you or anything. Itās just when people say that I canāt stand them as a person. Like my cousin says to me āyour a disabled personā he says it an a deragatorive way tho..he thinks heās being funny...and he makes fun of my ocd saying āoh I think I have ocd bc I like to cleanā when I told him before thatās not what itās about and he says it to annoy me š„ŗ Iām tired of these types of people..some just donāt want to be educated, hopefully Ariana does tho.

@Anonymous no, i definitely understand, youāre fine! it is an extremely frustrating thing and makes recovery so difficult. i guess iām just trying to see it from a different perspective just bc i look up to Ariana so much. but yes, i totally agree. people who say derogatory things like that can be so irritating, but i guess they really just need to be fully educated on the issue at hand.

@HappyTurtle Iām not concerned with Hollywood elites to care what they have to say in general. Nearly all of them have a brand and arenāt like themselves behind close doors.

Lately Iāve seen way too many comments under posts about OCD, especially the harm, POCD, and relationship themes that are incredibly misinformed and honestly harmful. People saying things like āthese thoughts are unnatural,āor āyou need to go get real helpā and encouraging confession ***compulsions*** when they clearly have no understanding of how OCD actually works. Let me be clear: OCD involves distressing and unwanted thoughts, images, or urges. That doesnāt make someone dangerous. It makes them someone with a mental illness who is terrified of their own brain. Saying these people are āunnaturalā or implying theyāre broken only reinforces shame, and shame is the opposite of what helps anyone heal. If youāre commenting under OCD-related posts on an OCD ***app*** without understanding what intrusive thoughts are, or what compulsions can look like, or **how OCD can attach itself to the things we fear most** then please, stop. You are not helping. Youāre reinforcing stigma and pushing people further into silence. OCD is already isolating. We donāt need more people moralizing or projecting trauma theory onto something they havenāt experienced or donāt understand. If you really care, go learn. Read about intrusive thoughts. Learn about ERP therapy. Or maybe just listen. Because some of us are barely hanging on, and comments like those donāt just miss the point, they can do real damage. Iām sorry if I come off too angry, it just really upsets me to see people speak on something they clearly donāt understand. End of rant. Thank you for reading š¤

Does anyone know a user on Instagram / āocd advocateā? Itās a girl probably in her twenties, has her hair up, used to be Catholic and has a tattoo? She was on my Instagram page out here advocating for soocd while her biggest fear became true. Iām really not okay with that cause she triggered so many people. Pls let me know.

my mom has been on this adhd kick where she thinks everyone has adhd instead of what they actually have because apparently it can present itself as anxiety. well i told her i was taking prozac because thatās something she needs to know since i still live at home. and sheās fine with it because itās my choice. however, she comes into my room because she sent me a video about adhd. in the video, at the end, it says āgirls with adhd may develop perfectionist or obsessive compulsive tendencies.ā THEN, she has the audacity to tell me my compulsions didnāt start to show until after high school when that isnāt true at all. i just never talked about it, but of course she doesnāt believe me. i just feel so invalidated because after all of the hell iāve been through, to be told i donāt have what i most certainly am positive i do have is atrocious. i would lose my mind if i was told i didnāt have ocd because of the intrusive thoughts i get that make me feel like a terrible person. i feel like being told that sets me back so far and makes me want to thought spiral a bit. iām so upset.
