I agree but the problem is that these feel so real the thoughts and I understand whatever you said but my brain would still question it and be like oh is that all ? Is that true?! What if its not?!? I read somewhere soocd is projected differently for different people and if I don’t relate to someone’s symptoms i go like oh she or he has that but I don’t so do i not have it at all and i am trying to just run away its like questioning your existence

@Bimmi I guess you’re right… just the uncertainty scares you cause that means it can or it cannot and the can part eats you but when doesn’t you think why it does not its a loop:(

@Bimmi Its like living a hallucination i never thought this would happen to me and I believe that whatever happens will make us stronger but when the thoughts come in and feel so real and then i question the fact that i write they feel so real everytime is it because i want to reassure myself someway i forget how to hold on..

Does any one ever question if their ocd isn’t ocd?
That’s kinda my question. All my thoughts feel so realistic and so now I doubt if they are ocd and if I just can’t make my mind up about something and I’m using ocd as an excuse or something idc I feel like this post is word vomit.

Knowing the difference
Does anyone have any advice for how to know the difference between ocd and real feelings/thoughts? Sometimes an intrusive thought will come in and I immediately know it’s ridiculous and I can just leave it alone and it won’t bother me but other times I really really don’t know. It’s when ocd hijacks and twists my real feelings and thoughts and tries to manipulate me into believing they’re something they’re not or something that doesn’t align with my true morals or intentions. But since it’s twisting and mixing with real feelings I get so confused and scared. Everything gets jumbled and I feel like I can’t trust myself or my own mind. Yet other times and other topics I can laugh off and push away just fine. Make it make sense. And then I start to think well maybe I don’t have ocd at all and I’m just in denial because I don’t want to accept that these scary/concerning things are true about myself. Or maybe that’s just the ocd talking.

HELP PLS I NEED ADVICE
Ii spoke w my bf this weekend and he mentioned that he has thoughts just like me, but his don't bother him like me. I then felt a lot better and he tried dissecting one of his thoughts like I usually do and realized it felt more real for him after. That made me realize that none of my thoughts were ever true and I blew them up. However, yesterday I had a thought ab “wait wut if you liked that one guy? How dare you bc youre supposed to love your bf and not secretly like someone else” and treated it as I usually did bc I accidentally wanted to see if it was true but didn't rlly but I would check to see if it was there and now that thought feels so so so real now and I feel really bad how do Ik it's not real? I feel so bad and guilty bc lividly this makes 0 sense but it feels so prominent. It felt pretty real when it happened yesterday too. And now I feel awful bc how is it possible after my clarity the other day? Why does it feel so prominent 😞😞😞
