@therapistinrecovery: OCD takes so much from us including our sense of identity. But the more we understand WHY this is, the more we can protect ourselves. If this video or my others have helped you, consider taking my online course this fall (dm me) and give me a follow. Let me help you break free from OCD ❤️ #ocdtherapist #ocdawareness #obsessivecompulsivedisorder #ocdtiktok #ocdproblems
SOCD and GOCD are some of the worst themes ive struggled with, all the rumination and checking completely stripped away my sense of self i had before the first thoughts😖 its roughh

Ordinary Sammy :
I feel like I'm always trying to do things "correctly," so I'm often imitating what seems to make other people happy, then realizing I'm just pretending kind of hoping that I get that happiness, too, since I followed the instructions. But, I don't actually enjoy doing those things, or having those things. I feel like I don't know myself at all, AND when I do things that make "normal" people feel happy but I don't truly feel that, it feels like a big failure. Like I'm doing the exact things that make others happy. OCD and recently finding out ADHD, have me jumping from one fixation to the next trying to find happiness "correctly."

I haven’t been diagnosed with OCD, but I struggle with this so much, I often wonder if I really like the things I do, or if I am just liking things of the people around me

Sometimes I feel more susceptible to things. Like my therapist suggested I had autism and I’m thinking do I? Not one person besides said therapist has ever suggested it. I have zero social issues but do have sensory stuff, add, and ocd. Anyways, yeah you’re so right. I hate questioning who I REALLY am 😭😭😭 I’m 42!
