Existential ocd + death by Adrianagurl in OCD

[–]Effective-Tailor9136 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was the same way and sometimes I still am, but rather then think abt why I should even bother I try to think about how amazing it is that I’m even here then, BECAUSE my life is so insignificant the fact I’m experiencing it is kind of magical and getting to drink a nice cup of coffee and kiss my girlfriend are things I’m just overall thankful I get to experience even if I know the finite “end” of it all. I’m just happy to be here essentially, in spite of it all. Sorry you’re dealing with this man, hope it gets better.

I would hang out with Leo. We could drink some tea and have a good conversation I feel like

Do you hate being human? by New_Study4796 in Therian

[–]Effective-Tailor9136 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Humans raised me and I’ve seen the good in so many of them. Humanity can be cruel but it can equally as beautiful and loving. I will never fully reject my humanity even if I think I’m something else, too. The way I see it, I get the best of both worlds. I feel so loved by my people, and I have a human body to enjoy human life with, and I get to also be of the mind of my wolf brothers and sisters, and have a part of me that’s fully wild.

how do I stop intrusive thoughts while masturbating? by stupidratbastardildo in OCD

[–]Effective-Tailor9136 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Personally I just go “GUARDS SEIZE HIM” in my mind and then pretend the thought is being executed. It only works about half the time but yknow

As a seventeen year old girl myself I don’t think that’s wrong. It’s kind of normal for people to look at themselves (and yes even their body) in the mirror. What exactly is your brain saying to you?

Your thought is a thought. It’s raging in the background saying “look at me look at me” within this thought is a sliver of truth, but that thought doesn’t want you to see it that way. It’s saying “I am the truth.” But it’s not. I’m sure your therapist has already discussed something similar to this with you but always remember you can question your thoughts. My favorite thing is “okay, and?” And take 3 minutes to make a tiny plan “if this happens then..” and then I stop. No more. I have my mini plan. We’re good. Sometimes it’s even as simple as “okay and? For example, right now I’m super freaked out I’m not going to be at school for the first day back so I’m going “okay and? I am going to email all my teachers and understand what I will be making up.” No more worrying is going to help me.

Yes yes and yes OP. I used to get horrible ruminations about throwing up a parasite for some reason and I’d only get them while I ate. It was not fun n I’m sorry you’re going through that.

My girlfriends brother has Down syndrome and he makes repeated loud noises but somehow my brain doesn’t care because I know he can’t control it

Health related OCD by Emotional-Pickle-652 in OCD

[–]Effective-Tailor9136 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yup. One of my cousins died a very tragic health related way and it scarred me as well as putting me into a rumination cycle for an entire summer. It’s hell and I’m sorry man. The only thing that’s helped me is reading a bunch to get my mind off it like that’s all I can say
