OCD, feeds off of the fact that you are a good person. The reason the thoughts are so debilitating is because you aren’t a monster. If you liked the thoughts, they wouldn’t upset you, and you wouldn’t be the good person that you are. Never give up.
What's the worse thing (FOR YOU) about having OCD?
Can you have contamination OCD but not have a cleaning compulsion?
How did YOUR ocd start?
I give up
Does anyone else suffer from multiple false (sexual) memories? Everyone (family, someone I thought was a witness, & girlfriend), the person involved, and 2 doctors tell me they don’t think it happened. Do I just have to accept the fact if everyone but me thinks it’s fake, then it must be fake?
We are the rare ones. OCD only affects 1-3% of the world’s population. I had late onset OCD that came after a dream… at 24 years old. I didn’t even know I had pure and false memory OCD for 14 years. 14 years in hell.
I’d really appreciate any opinions and feedback. Including your own experience with OCD, if you’d like to share?
Multiple False memories
why does it feel so real?
False memories
[POCD] I'm not sure what to fucking do anymore
Does your OCD follow you into your dreams?
I’m here to talk. Anybody with any subset. Feel free to reach out, you are not alone.
How old were you when OCD turned your world upside down? And what caused it? I was 24 and a dream changed me overnight.
How many times have you tried to start a new life?
What were you like before OCD? Who were you…?
I need help! OCD has taken my life over
Has anyone ever made it back to who they were before ocd?
What medication have been working for you?
I feel only peaceful when i am asleep.
Even after years of having it, has anyones OCD tried to convince them that they don’t have OCD? That all of your thoughts and false memories are true.
I feel really alone dealing with my health anxiety OCD
OCD has taught us how to walk through hell everyday… we are the strong ones.
