this too is my biggest theme. it’s the absolute worst. not knowing what is real and what’s false is what makes it so terrifying and terrible. i wish i could give you certainty, but unfortunately with false memory, you won’t know because you can’t separate the two because doubting and going back to replay the original memory is so foggy.

Yes I have this. If I’m doubting it it usually turns out it didn’t happen. Look up Ali Greymond false memory on YouTube. My therapist also says: if someone held a gun to your head and you had to tell them right now if it happened or not, what would you say? We can usually answer.

How can I deal with False Memory OCD? I am struggling with ruminating thoughts, and trying to figure out false memories! How can I enjoy my day without figuring it out?

Fellow False memory ocd people
Hi, I’ve had ocd since I was 12 but the hardest theme I’ve ever encountered was false memory ocd and POCD. I’m convinced I’ve molested children and people and it disgusts me to my very core. Is there anyone else going through this? I really need to talk to people who are going through the same thing as me and can share their story because I feel so along in this false memory cycle because it feels like a real memory and I feel like I’m tricking everyone around me into thinking it’s false. Please help

False-Memory OCD Help
Hey all, I've been okay for a while, but today I'm having a hard time with my sexually-themed false memory thoughts and the compulsion to try and "figure it out". While I've learned enough over time that "figuring it out" doesn't work, I'm just feeling extra overwhelmed today. Stuff that happened over 7 years ago is really getting to me, I'm in this limbo state just sitting here with it all but... ...anyone have any general tips for false-memory OCD?
