Am I alone in this?
Hello, I need a bit of solace.. Ive noticed I struggle with ocd like thoughts that come over and over. they're kind of like intrusive thoughts. Am I the only one? I feel kind of like a weirdo, for context I have cptsd with my autism. The events happened years ago yet I still think about them while Ill be doing dishes and I stim to feel better. I also tend to feel guilty after I talk out my feelings.
@19andCounting
can relate about having intrusive thoughts and thinking about past stuff :/
how do you cope with intrusive thoughts?
me can relate with feeling guilty about talking about my feelings too.. it's difficult.. ;( do you know why you feel guilty?
personally for me it's the thought that i might be bothering the person and that my feelings aren't really important...... other times it's the fear of invalidation becoming real
Oh I have those too. Plus PTSD. Totally normal for people with OCD! 💜
CAN YOU HELP ME ?
I AM NOT SURE , BUT I THINK I MIGHT HAVE OCD
INTRUSIVE THOUGHTS, IF I TOUCH SOMETHING (EVEN MYSELF) I GET AN URGE TO TOUCH 1 OR 2 TIMES I TRIES TO NOT DO IT IN PUBLIC (SOMETIMES ENDS UP DOIG IT),IF SOMEONE I HATE OR SOMEONE I DON'T KNOW EVEN ACCIDENTLY TOUCHES ME IT FEELS LIKE I GOT INFECTED AND I subconsciously TRIES TO GET IT OFF ME I KNOW ITS RUDE BUT I CAN'T HELP IT
BECAUSE OF THESE , I ACCIDENTALLY CAME ACROSS OCD AND IT FELT REALLY FAMILIAR
