Im literally losing it
si idk what's happening to me I have this weird thing of always counting words or spelling them repeatedly in my head until I feel like I'm gonna explode. I found out that it's something called counting OCD at first I was like "naah, that's not right" but when I really thought about it all made sense, all the ruminations and intrusive thoughts I've been since I was a kid. Atleast now I know what it is, but it's still really annoying does anyone relate? 😭😭

I know how you feel.
I wound do certain things before sleeping when I'm stressed, or I would feel as if bad things would happen.
It's exhausting.
My heart goes out to you 💜💕
Listening to music helped me calm my thoughts and slow them down, the the intensity out of them!
Thanks.

I'm autistic and I do things like this. Has that possibility been explored?
Gosh, I've never thought about that. So what can I do to be really sure?
Talk to a psychiatrist, I think it is? Or a therapist. I can’t remember who it is that can diagnose. Either way, they can refer you to the right person <3
Similar issues and incidents for years together I've been trying to make my negative thoughts positive 😊🙃🙏
For me though i do meditation and removes my stress at least 😀☺️
I feel you, I have a similar experiences having to do with repetitiveness. I will check if I've locked the doors almost ten times, I will check the time table ten times before going to class,I will reread some words several times in a book before I move on, I will wash my hands almost 100 times in a day
