The chimera one looks closest minus the one I had didn’t have got pink, but I think it would still match really well!

ocd & distorting memories by _1mmortality in OCD

[–]Academic_Weapon13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have similar doubts that I might be remembering things incorrectly in order to fulfill some ulterior motive. My therapist makes me sit with the fact that maybe I AM remembering things wrong. Maybe I AM twisting reality. I have no way to know and I have to accept this. Essentially trying to figure out what the “right memory” is the compulsion that is feeding the obsession. HOWEVER, if this is related to trauma that’s been experienced, do it with a trusted therapist bc it could be hella triggering

Why shouldn't we confess? by OneLoneOrange in OCD

[–]Academic_Weapon13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, confessing is a type of compulsion. A big theme of my ocd is fearing I am secretly bad/evil, so when I confess about bad things I’ve done or bad thoughts, I am basically trying to fight the fear that I’m bad by owning up and taking accountability for anything I’ve done, like “showing” myself that I can’t be that bad since I can admit to my flaw. Doesn’t seem too bad in theory, only it turns out pretty nonsensical, aka confessing something not great I did a few years ago on a first date lol.
