OCD

Oh yeah man, every single fucking day. I feel you. Its extremely hard to cope with, which I think is why we obsess more and more over them. And nah, we might not have the same fears but i understand you completely. Ive had a lot of fears/obsessions but they seem to change every 6 months or so. Mostly about death and me losing my identity and who I am. Stay strong brother, well get through this shit.

Constantly

Someone fucking lobatamize me

hypochondria is the fucking worst, my dude. literally the most primal fear of dying, completely out of nowhere, and NOTHING can convince you you're fine. i feel you

This like, doesnt even bother anyones ocd. youre just a retarded spaz

>Ive had a lot of fears/obsessions but they seem to change every 6 months or so.
That's what I seemed to suffer with. Like when I'm afraid of one thing at a time. For a short period of time, I'll be afraid of one thing - Then I am obsessed over something else and the previous object of fear seems like nothing to me - To the point where I even say "I can't believe I was afraid of [previous object of fear]" or something like that.

Yeah dude thats what happens with me. I was diagnosed at 16 but I always coped with it well but damn this last year has been crazy, honestly cant even cope with it anymore desu. Be careful with drugs, they could unironically make it even worse.

Thanks. Have you found any ways to alleviate the OCD or are we screwed? I don't want to take medication personally.

same bro. It manifests into compulsions for me and it usually has to do with people i dont like. So if someone who I despise bothered me or i see a gross person on the street i feel "infected" so to speak and i have to do compulsions like saying mantras in my head, flicking off light switches over and over. Yes i am an asshole i know.
yeah dude good luck getting rid of it ive tried every thing from meds to CBT(Cognitive behavioral therapy not Cock torture) and been to every single fucking therapist in my area. im still in the same place that i was when i first started getting OCD

Shit, by drugs I meant illegal drugs. Especially psychedelics or similar, thats what made mine worse. Try prescription meds, they actually do help alleviate, im not on any cause they made me gain too much weight and I was basically obese already so im losing weight to get back on them for a bit. Just remember that these meds are made to be temporary, once you start feeling better youll find that your head is a bit more clear and you could think more rationally, you need to find good coping mechanisms when these fears and thoughts hit. For me personally i took cbt therapy and it actually worked. One thing that really helped me is to not give a shit, dont pay attention to these thoughts when they hit cause if you keep on feeding them they turn into obsessions. Just accept them. Its hard at first, but at the end its worth it. Might try cbt again desu, really helped me when I was 16 and my ocd became mild. Give it a shot.

You cant get rid of it, but you can definitely improve it and get it to a point where it doesnt bother you. When did you first start getting this shit?

Any good resources on CBT?

puberty. At around 12

its interesting to note that it actually goes away depending on where i am. When I am at college I basically have none of it unless something sets me off, however in my room at my parents house it is 100 times worse

livingcbt.com/freeselfhelp.html Heres a few worksheets. med.upenn.edu/ctsa/forms_ocd_cbt.html Heres something explaining the basics. Honestly if I were you id go to a therapist that specializes on it. Doing it alone might work but for me personally I feel like id fall back on my bullshit without another person supervising me, as childish as that sounds

Yeah man, ocd is basically just an incredibly extreme form of anxiety. Sometimes anxiety disorders might manifest into ocd. I feel like environment can make a difference, if youre somewhere where youre constantly stressed and unhappy and anxious then Ocd symptoms might get worse.

>have ocd, high fuctioning autism, and adhd
why did i have to be born like this

me. It's mostly minor stuff tho. Like for example if I accidentally brush my arm against something, I'll feel like a sensation in that spot until I brush my other arm in the same spot. Also sometimes I just get to impulse to look over my right shoulder.

>be jerkin it
>about to cum
>ocd says "oh boy i sure hope we don't think of anything fucked up and ruin the orgasm!"
>fucked up intrusive thoughts, orgasm ruined

please someone tell me they know this feel

Your sense of humor could stop a train

Anyone has this obsession with "mood contamination"? Like you don't want to enjoy a movie, game or album you've been waiting for months because you had a bad day? As usual all days are bad days, so enjoying what you like is rare.

only thing that works for me is weed. it's like it "unlocks" my brain is the only way I can describe it

I highly suspect I have this combination. is it worth getting diagnosed or will they just tell me things I already know

YES! I'VE HAD THIS HAPPENED BEFORE

I've never had that, but I can see that being debilitating. That sounds like something many people also suffer from, so don't feel like you're alone.

if you think you have it, you probaly do

i have this so fucking bad, it's easily the worst manifestation of my ocd. i can't listen to songs i like if anything bad happened to me that day, because then i might forever associate the song i like with the bad feeling.
if i see something on the internet that pisses me off, i have to like, do something neutral as a buffer (watch a video i don't care about or something) before i can do anything i REALLY like again, so it doesn't get "tainted".
might not be the exact same thing you're talking about, but holy fuck it is hell

THANK YOU! i get stuck in cycles where if it happens once, each time i try again i spend the whole time thinking "oh fuck its gonna happen again, please don't happen again" which of course makes it happen again. glad at least one person knows wtf i'm talking about

And the image always pops up close to the climaxing point too, it's the worst.

Yeah actually, sometimes when Im watching porn an intrusive thought pops up, usually involving blood and that shit kills my boner. Ive always hated blood so it makes sense my brain fucks me up like that
