I think I am genuinely starting to get OCD

[Prøphet]

its genuienly fucking hell. iv struggled wit it since i ws a kid. id constantly obsess over any circumstance/situation/thought/memory/hygiene . regardless if its small or not. id obsess 24/7 over how people breath or eat when i ws a kid. u can improve it like wt the others said here

exposure therapy-just face it whatever discomforts u. regardless of how it screws u. u will always eventually adapt to it. idk abt completely fixing it but itl heavily improve

meds(dont recommend it tbh only if yk wt ur doing)- im on 25mg fluvoxamine and it works rlly good now

Dude literally it’s a never ending thought pattern that’s real asf, and yeah exposure is the only true solution long term definitely

Interesting, I looked it up and that seems like a super low dose, but it still helps you? Are you prescribed or diy?

ws prescribed back then. i did 50mg to 100mg and it improved it significantly i js do 25mg as a super low dose to maintain and in cycles. side effects r severely mild as well(but itl go away at any dose after a time anyways)

That makes sense, I’m undiagnosed but definitely nd to some extent just like a lot of my family and it’s fs all connected, one problem causes another and so on

Mirin I’ll definitely keep that in mind if this shit ever gets too overwhelming one day
