These are common OCD fears. #1 I’d rather be “crazy” than have OCD. I really don’t think there’s any worse condition than OCD. And #2 who cares if you’re being dramatic? Like aren’t we all dramatic sometimes? Why should we fee shame over that.

OCD is playing tricks on you! I get these same fears, that one day I’ll have a break down and do something drastic, or that my mental state will get worse. But my therapist reminded me that it’s not something we need to worry about because we can’t control the future, and it’s best to be present, try to be mindful of ourselves in the now, realize you’re okay because you’re here in this community and you are in the drivers seat.

You are not alone in this it just “feels” that way!! I experienced the same thing!!! OCD wants to isolate you and create a fear that you can’t talk to anyon because they will judge you and that is simply not true!! I thought I was losing my mind and it was scary and is when you are going through it!!! But remind yourself that this is just ocd!!!!! You didn’t do anything to deserve this, God doesn’t operate that way either! Psalm 103 says he does not treat us as our sins deserve but has love and compassion for us! We just have a faulty mechanism in our brains but we can retrain it, it takes time but you know what?!!!!! This is making you stronger than you know right now!!! Your going to come out the other side of this and be able to help someone else because you walked the difficult path ahead of them!!! Keep going!!!! God loves you and so do we!!!!! <><

Hi about a week ago I found out I have ocd and chronic anxiety! I tried zoloft and it was terrible for me. I also started therapy and I take hydroxyzine but I will discuss further medication with my doctor. My question is I have a huge fear that I'm going crazy, I am crazy, or schizophrenic to the point I'm so hyper aware of my surrounding ill look out the corner of my eye to make sure I'm nit seeing anything ill make sure to double check what I'm hearing and it's so draining! I get really scared and go into a panic and cry 😅 I need some reassurance has anyone felt this way my doctor and therapist explained it to me but I'm still very scared. I feel like one day I'll have a break and I won't be the same! I tried the grounding exercise and breathing it helps temporarily. I also cut out smoking weed and none of my family has this but I feel like I have it or ill develope it even though it's rare!

My ocd has been flaring up lately I’ve noticed some things that I don’t know if it’s ocd or something else whenever I seen someone like drugged or sick or just not “normal” I feel like or get scared that’s gonna end up being me? Does that make sense or then after a few minutes I feel like I’m them I don’t know exactly how to explain it I feel like I’m gonna start acting crazy or like I act weird or like them ? Idk exactly how to explain it and I have such a drop in my stomach thinking of it because it makes me feel insane, I haven’t had such an ocd episode so it’s getting hard again and making me feel insane specially because I don’t know how to explain this that I feel, I feel so scared rn can someone please comment on this?
