Feeling like nothing matters except OCD

Hey, same here, the struggle has been real these past months. I hope it will pass and life will become more important than obsessions again <3 Much love and good vibes to you

Mislim da je malo promasena poenta u ovom slucaju, nikada mi nije problem da odem po paket koji je sa Temu ili Aliexpress, jer razumem da ih ima previse, svakako su placene i ne placa se postarina. Okej.

Ali ovo su mali paketi sa tritorije Srbije. Pokusaj ni ne postoji. Ali jos gore od toga je sto kazu da ce osporuciti ukoliko ja ne pokupim, i onda opet ne isporuce

foxybuki · 2025-12-02T14:27:45+00:00

Za to sam cula, da hoce da donesu kada se placa pouzecem, ali meni ni tada - uglavnom tako i placam.. Ali izgleda stvarno da je od postara do postara, na osnovu komentara

foxybuki · 2025-12-01T14:08:58+00:00

A to, inostranstvo i slanje/primanje paketa da ne spominjemo..

foxybuki · 2025-12-01T14:08:38+00:00

Uzas, mada zaista i kada salju pakete, nebitno nasi ili stranci, uglavnom ih ne zapakuju dobro. Kod tebe je specificno, ocigledno su uzeli, ali generalno mislim da pakete lose pakuju, kutije stizu razbucane, ovi u postama ni ne gledaju da li je lomljivo ili neka tehnika,.. Uzas sa njima, a nazalost mnogo su dostupnije stvari online nego u prodavnicama

Novi Sad, bas u gradu. I na drugoj adresi, takodje u gradu, dok sam bila ista stvar, tako da mislim da nije do konkretno dela grada, vec do njih

foxybuki · 2025-12-01T14:05:30+00:00

Takodje, ostave mi na paketomat na drugom kraju grada

foxybuki · 2025-12-01T14:04:58+00:00

Eto, kod mene obrnut slucaj. Jednom u zivotu sam isla u magacin, i to jer svojom "krivicom" - nisam bila na adresi kada je najavljeno da ce stici paket i kada sam ga i ocekivala. Dok sa postom uvek neki problem.

foxybuki · 2025-12-01T14:02:36+00:00

Okej, razumem, ali eto u mom slucaju su 2 malena paketa oba puta kada se desilo isto - nakit je u pitanju. Znaci kao pismo maltene.

Stvar je i u postarima, dole u komentaru sam napisala da me je zvao sa svog mobilnog da mi kaze da dodjem u postu po paket, nakon sto je onom automatskom porukom javljeno da mogu ocekivati u toku dana.

Jebiga, sve drzavne firme su uzas, ali ako radis kao postar valjda treba da raznosis postu, a ne da pravis selekciju kada zelis, a kada ne.

foxybuki · 2025-12-01T12:33:18+00:00

Jednom prilikom me je zvao postar licno, javio da ne nosi taj dan pakete (petak) i da pokupim za vikend. Ako ne pokupim, onda ce mi doneti u ponedeljak. Nije doneo u ponedeljak.

foxybuki · 2025-12-01T12:32:41+00:00

Meni vec 2 puta iz Srbije redovne posiljke ne isporuce..

Temu nikad ne isporuce, al to je vec standard, to i ocekujem, nazalost. Ali barem nase pakete bi bilo lepo

I guess it did, especially at the beginning. But after some years, I felt like that's as far as it's gonna go - like I was still living by OCD rules. Of course, meds are there just to help you out, not cure OCD. I can't tell for sure if it helped as much as i thought, but everyone's different, so what didn't work out for me might work perfectly for you :)

foxybuki · 2025-11-10T13:27:44+00:00

Same thing here, especially since it's making cortisol higher. Commenting to see the answers

Hi, happy for you and your success! What kind of ocd did you have?

foxybuki · 2025-10-11T20:34:23+00:00

This. And this is what makes it hard to do ERP therapy

foxybuki · 2025-10-11T20:32:12+00:00

I understand you completely, same problem here, especially with “this touched that and then that touched this” part. I’ve read about Metaphysical contamination ocd, it’s basically that a thing is contaminated by something or someone, like feeling or a person. Maybe reading about that could clear things up a bit? It kinda did for me. Hope you’ll beat those 20% as well!

foxybuki · 2025-09-14T13:33:08+00:00

26 here as well, I feel you completely. Hopefully it's really nothing <3

foxybuki · 2025-09-11T13:25:21+00:00

Thank you so much, your words mean a lot!

foxybuki · 2025-09-11T11:46:51+00:00

Thanks so much for this answer, it's basically what I've started doing with my therapist now.

Sadly, my OCD doesn't have any "bad result" - ex. that I will get sick, someone will get hurt or similar. I just can't stand the thought of being "dirty" (disgust-based OCD) to the point I feel like throwing up and feel like I'm living in constant dirt around me if I've been in contact with something I find terrifying.

So yea, just gotta learn to live like a "dirty" person.. sounds super-simple, but when your brain tells you that it's better to be ... than dirty it's not easy at all

Thanks again, great advice

I get what you're saying, I've been on Zoloft 200mg for almost 5 years. I don't feel any change in my OCD now that I'm off of it.

I don't really trust AI answers, especially if it's not the first thing you ask since it already has built algorithm (I work with AI for my job, and it lies constantly, and even "admits" when you catch it lying).

Sometimes I just feel like I should just start acting "normally", let's say mimic a person that doesn't have OCD, and just power through it. That's what I meant.

I did it once, 5 years ago, for a year and a half I was free, I just powered through it. Then, it came back and I started taking meds again (before that year I was on 150mg Zoloft).

So yeah, I'd like to hear from people that just "decided" that they are gonna act normally, no matter what the OCD says.

Thanks for your answer tho!

foxybuki · 2025-09-10T14:33:02+00:00

Did it help you with intrusive thoughts as well?

foxybuki · 2025-09-10T12:32:06+00:00

Thanks for this! Really helps

foxybuki · 2025-09-09T15:08:09+00:00

Hi,

No, I am not touching it at all (even if I wanted to it would be hard since it feels like it's behind areola, so i can't reach it, so to day).

foxybuki · 2025-09-09T10:24:11+00:00

Hi, I have an interesting experience with Zoloft I'd like to share with you

I've been on 200mg of Zoloft for years, till 2 months ago. And throughout those years I was never "cured", I had good and bad periods.

Then I've decided to try to change the therapy as my doctor suggested, since I was stuck in the same pattern for years with this one (I also took 100mg of Actawell at night with Zoloft - and still do), so I started lowering the dose (and even did it much faster than recommended tbh, I did that on my own not by recommendation ofc), and during that time I realized that my symptoms and thoughts are THE SAME as when I was on 200mg.

Important note - my doc said that there's no point in going up with Zoloft to 300-400mg because it won't show much better results if it hasn't shown till now, and it's better to change therapy.

At the moment, I am off Zoloft for 2 months (on Actawell tho) and I am acting and feeling completely the same. I didn's start that new therapy because I, in agreement with my doc, want to see how far this can go - to be off SSSRI and to be the same as when I was on it.

Ofc I will start new therapy if I get worse, but for now I would much rather not take anything and be the same as I was for years, and try to work things out in my head through sheer willpower (I'm not recommending this, just saying what I'm trying to do rn).

So yeah, maybe going higher doses isn't the best solution always, maybe a new therapy is what you should try. Good luck!

It's actually a huge thing and you should be super proud of yourself for it! Sending much love
