#suspected ocd

[reeeneeereee]

(person who suspects they have ocd voice): what if every time i think something is an ocd symptom im actually faking it and stereotyping and ruining the lives of people with real ocd and im a terrible person

Me, who has only said slurs maybe 10 times in ny life, and only ones I can reclaim with certainty: what if the email I just sent my teacher has every racist slur ever in it and everyone hates me forever?

Suspecting the fact one might have ocd sucks ass btw

what if im making it all up for attention and everyone knows but is too polite to tell me otherwise- hmm i gotta check and make sure if thats the case or not...

Question does anyone have any resources on moral OCD and/or advice on what the. Line ig is between just having tendencies and actually having OCD. Cause I’ve been trying to figure it out for over a year but keep landing on the dilemma of “are my experiences ’severe/extreme’ enough to count?”

OCD is present in my family (my aunt) which is why I’m more open to suspecting it and I definitely have the “obsessing over being a good person/feeling like a bad person 24/7” thing. But the compulsions I don’t really have that strongly as far as I know? They’re relatively minimal and don’t interfere with my life really which is why I’m unsure (the obsessions definitely interfere but not the compulsions for clarification)

Any resources or advice are very much appreciated-

not giving a fuck to absolute guilt to forgetting what happened again cycle is real

okay random but does anyone else ‘forget’ things while packing for vacation so they don’t actually forget something more important or is that just a me thing. Like I always have a packing list and I’ll always add something that I’ll intentionally not bring with so that I don’t forget to bring something important with. For example like a year or so ago when we went to a lake trip with some family friends I ‘forgot’ to pack jewellery cause I wouldn’t need it so I didn’t forget anything actually important on my list like meds or clothes. Does anyone else do that?

I don’t have ocd I just get slurs I can’t reclaim repeated in my head randomly which worry me if I’m a bad person

Suspected OCD is

censoring the fuck out of yourself tiktok style when talking about sensitive topics because you know the mere mention of those words will make your brain flashbang you with the worst things ever

And then realizing how bad that actually is and feeling guilty for that (sometimes causing the brain to flashbang you still)

ocd culture is..
