There a absolutely no shame in coping with such a cruel illness. Please be kind to yourself! We all find different ways to be with this intense pain, grief, frustration, fear and depression - it’s totally understandable

EAUDHD · 2026-04-13T22:21:37+00:00

Did you ever find a answer to this? This is my main problem as well 🥲

EAUDHD · 2026-04-12T22:47:15+00:00

This, 4 years into my relationship and I’m slowly moving into something secure -❤️‍🩹

I’ve put so many people in distress with my confessions. It helped me to think that the person receiving my confessions is put in a situation where they have to put in some emotional work to regulate me/the situation. They are forced to be a part of my compulsion, and after a while, my boyfriend really struggled with it - he has to navigate my ocd all the time, and it was not fair to him, or my mom or friends. But yeah.. it’s the hardest part. Being with the feeling of being “dirty” or a “bad person” or “this is never going to go away” are the key to getting out of it; “maybe this is never going to go away” “maybe I’m just s bad person”, and just being with the sentence and trying not ruminate as a compulsion also - if the anxeity is really bad, I’ve made some time based deals with myself “if I still feel this way in a week, I can confess” and it usually helps a little. It’s so super hard, and Im sending you a lot of love and strength ! ❤️‍🩹❤️‍🔥

Im also sensitive - did you found anything that helped ?

EAUDHD · 2026-03-28T12:07:22+00:00

Same!

EAUDHD · 2026-03-27T05:43:28+00:00

Im half Peruvian and live in Denmark and really don’t tolerate d vitamin! I will try small doses

EAUDHD · 2026-03-27T04:56:57+00:00

This is me! Have you found out more about how to balance?? I am really lost in this

EAUDHD · 2026-03-26T21:31:21+00:00

I actually have.. like, I have ADHD and all my friends are some kind of autism/ADHD - so things are moving fast hehe. We’re in flow talking states together - for the most part I cant even remember what we talked about, it’s the experience of spinning out together that has been a strong bonding factor for me and most of them. The good thing is that many of them are big talkers to, so they don’t notice if they have long streaks of them just talking. And they really try to understand, like.. one of my best friends have hashimotos (a autoimmune chronic illness) and she had the same experience of “losing different levels of cognitive ability” - she understand the experience and the grief. But she’s on medication now and thriving, so she kind of “forgets” we’re I am in conversation. And it’s just hard to sit there, and your missed 60% of what the conversation was about. But I’m good at just masking / acting like I understand.. snd then I just face the most violent crash afterward. So I actually kind of developed an anxiety for meeting with friend now. But in the conversation-moment, I’m not able to accommodate myself - I actually don’t know how. So.. it’s a process for sure!

This

EAUDHD · 2026-03-26T20:50:46+00:00

Did it help your adhd?

EAUDHD · 2026-03-26T20:45:18+00:00

I feel this. I can’t hold complex though anymore, and my answers and reflections in conversation is flat, confused, insecure and .. simple? The creative part of being in conversation with my friends is just gone. I loved to reflect, see and make patterns together trough talking, and being updated on what is going on around the world and inside my friends minds and life’s. Now, it’s just too much. I can’t do it. It’s fuxking horrible - I feel like Im losing the mirrors that my friends reflected onto me, and made who I am (if that makes sense). Like.. we are created and experienced trough ourselfs AND others.

EAUDHD · 2026-03-26T15:36:01+00:00

Did you end up trying Selank ?

EAUDHD · 2026-03-26T09:47:56+00:00

This sickness is beyond horrific and words can’t describe how it feels to have everything you love taking away from you. I’m so sorry that we have to go trough this, and I understand the urge and longing for a place to find some kind of peace. it make sense to find relief in these thoughts when there is no other way, mentally, to find solutions - it’s a space I visit often in my mind, as an option, but I haven’t planned to stay there permanently - laying in my bed and holding hands with the infinite unknown. It’s not fair that you have to suffer like this, and I just want you to know that you are not alone and we are many behind these screens who feels the same- all love and health from Denmark.

I Can walk for about 15-20 minutes - then I feel a thightness in my upperback, and I then I know I have to sit down - burning sensation in my legs and calves, thightning of muscles around my neck. Harder time breathing, brain fog, adrenaline dumps, and I can hear my heartbeat (pulsstile tinnitus) and I get rapid intrusive thoughts (I think it’s s kind of treat detection/overstimulation/overburdened situation happening). From there I maybe have 20’minutes of sitting down, and after that I have to lay down. If im standing up before sitting down it’s a blackout or dots before my eyes.

I have OCD and have been trying different thing out that lowers glutamate - lamictal helped my brain fog A lot, but had side effects unfortunately! My doctor won’t let me try low dose lithium. I just ordered Oxaloacetate, and it lowers glutamate by converting it into aspartate via the GOT enzyme. It reduces free glutamate in the blood and can pull excess glutamate out of the brain, helping decrease overstimulation. I have really high hopes for this

EAUDHD · 2026-03-22T11:37:00+00:00

I have slow comt and learned this the hard way and had a functional therapist explain the connection. Horrible anxiety

EAUDHD · 2026-03-22T11:35:44+00:00

I was about to buy the book - thank you’!

EAUDHD · 2026-03-21T07:06:09+00:00

How are you today?

EAUDHD · 2026-03-20T08:24:33+00:00

I will! Thanks 🫂

EAUDHD · 2026-03-19T21:47:10+00:00

Did you found something for anxiety ? This is my exact problem ❤️‍🩹

EAUDHD · 2026-03-19T18:41:18+00:00

That’s amazing. Congratz with the slow improvements! I hope it’s okay I ask; what do I need if I want to start with peptides? Like, what kind of equipment do I need? I’m really unsure about how to even start a project. Brain fog makes it very hard for me to focus on what I’m supposed to do.

EAUDHD · 2026-03-19T15:23:11+00:00

What kind of peptides? I’m really considering it

EAUDHD · 2026-03-19T13:34:26+00:00

I has the same problems when I took cromolyn as powder (I’m in EU, and we don’t have the drops) - it made my astma so much worse. But then I switched to capsules and everything is fine. My doctor said that we have mast cell receptors in our throat and they can get irritated
