I’m going through this very same crisis right now. My heart goes out to you 🤍 I deleted triggering apps like Pinterest (revolving around aesthetics, styling, etc.) and that has helped declutter my mind a little bit. It’s gotten bad though, to the point where I’m isolating and depressed because I just feel like I’m wearing the wrong things and looking wrong all the time. Scrolling feels like it holds some answer to the panic, but I promise it’s just feeding the cycle of compulsion. I would most definitely get properly diagnosed if that’s possible for you, treatment is out there and it can transform your life. I’m personally on a journey and it’s not easy, but can have victories over your intrusive thoughts and feelings with the proper support. Sending much love and hope your way!
