@crookedcigarette: OCD isn’t always about cleaning.. sometimes, it’s a brain that convinces you that your worst thoughts define who you are. THEY DONT! #ocd #obsessivecompulsivedisorder #HealingJourney #MentalHealthAwareness #intrusivethoughts
oh thank baphomet, a bpd creator who also has ocd!

OCD is an absolute fucking nightmare. I call it my OCDemon. I have it extremely well managed nowadays but it still happens daily and it’s unpleasant. And before managing it I remember literal hours of horrible painful googling, and ruminating. Waking up in the middle of the night to research. Making reminders to handle intrusive thoughts later. Celebrating to my mom for things I finished doing which she never understood why I did in the first place. Nowadays I don’t suffer from anything like that. I have extreme confidence in my self and my ocd is mild now. Your thoughts do not define you, you don’t choose a majority of your thoughts and no matter what you can always have cognitive struggles or other struggles. A thought is simply an event in your brain and doesn’t have to be concrete at all. And as you said, this brilliant point of how the intrusive thoughts are usually the opposite of your values. So there’s no way they define you if you feel so badly about them. It’s your mind, don’t let anything or anyone control it. Thank you for this video this is so valuable. Keep up the good creation ❤️.

I feel this!!! I personally think a lot of them are related to fear! Fear that that would happen or you’d somehow lose your mind and do them, idek but I noticed a lot of my worst fears correlated to my intrusive thoughts

I'm a germaphobe and have had many ppl tell me I'm OCD. The impact and ritual is the OCD, not the action. I don't have OCD because I can just ignore and move on from stuff that bothers me.

My therapist had to convince me I had OCD. I just want to be normal and when people saw “omg I’m so OCD”. I’m like omg I wish I wasn’t. The intrusive thoughts are definitely spot on and scary

my bird died tragically yesterday,and my ocd didn't want to let me accept it. I began giving cpr, and after burying him i was worried he was still alive and I just made a mistake 😳 then this morning I woke and birdie isn't in the grave so now I dono if I did make a mistake, or a more reasonable reason could be an animal dug him up? I dont fkn know. THIS IS OCD.

Never got official diagnosis because I don't have the money for that. But I wouldn't be surprise with AuDHD. Intrusive thoughts pops here and there, but I'm usually able to brush them off. But in the deep of my depression the most difficult one I have was "you just deserve to d!e" because I thought I was that much of a failure. Never made any attempt, it was more of a "karma should land a plane on my house". On THE most difficult night, it was like my inner monologue wasn't mine to control, but just to listen. Like if it was just the Truth of my Brain thinking "out loud" with no filter at all. One of the few times I can say I was probably having a panic attack. And was stuck with this alone, because people had either already turned away, I had turned them away or I just didn't believe they would be able to both not judge and understand.

I went to a treatment center, worked my ass off doing CBT, but when my effort was not matching my results I was sent to DBT therapy (changed my life) diagnosed with BPD. Already knew I had CPTSD. Lots of overlap.. due to lots of trauma. Got told BPD is curable through skill use. Got evaluated again, didn’t have BPD anymore. Then got diagnosed with DID for ART therapy not sticking. Then had to quit therapy cold turkey. What a daunting diagnosis. I am able to point out how many symptoms still look like OCD… “pure o” which is more mental compulsions.. could have been why my first therapist never caught it. To this day idk if it was severe cptsd with unmanaged OCD that looked like BPD, or if I did have BPD (which idk if it even is curable???) I’ve scored moderate for ADHD & Bipolar as well. It’s so exhausting trying to make sense of symptoms when you have severe childhood trauma. Did I have one thing & not the other? I feel my anxiety & depression are symptoms of unmanaged something.
