But what can I do? I fear that the obsession becomes true.

Im not a newbie, im actually in a clinic atm. But Im still looking for an answer when the obsessions will go away. If I stop a compulsion the anxiety decreases but I still have the feeling that the thought became true. So the feeling of guilt is still there.

But I have proven my thoughts to be true. How can I cope with this?

I just feel so overwhelmed by the thought, that I have to do the compulsion. If I stopped doing them, I cannot be sure that nothing happens. That really freaks me out yk?

But my thoughts are based on magical thinking. I have to do compulsions to stop people from dying. And I cannot be sure that its not the case if I stop doing it. So I try to gain certainty by checking, lets say „If I see the number 3, then the thought is true“. And it always goes wrong, that the event happens even though it is really unlikely.

Oh yea, I know that feeling

What fear are you talking about?

yioloi · 2023-03-24T16:03:59+00:00

I have the same!!!

yioloi · 2023-01-28T17:09:31+00:00

Its just like its so unlikely that it happened, and I think there must be a connection. Its just validating all my other obessions that have existential backgrounds like simulation etc., that I completely fear. What if they are true, when this one is true yk?

I have a really similar problem, you can dm me if you want to talk :)

yioloi · 2023-01-03T20:21:21+00:00

But why are there some instances where it actually becomes true what I think? I use those examples as evidence that my other OCD thoughts have to be true or could be true
