OCD is terrible one minute you’re normal and then when you get a bad thought 💭 you feel like you lost full control of your mind,it’s the worst feeling ever but somewhere deep deep down you know that’s not me and start to wonder am I gonna be normal again
Same here. Like the other day, I was feeling great up until I got another bad thought, and it won't go away, now I feel really streesed out. It not only effects my job, it effects my body and life. And deep down I know the thoughts aren't real, but somewhere OCD confince you that it is or put you in a state of uncernity or you're nor completely sure. It sucks. But I'm not giving up. You just have to keep calm and just learn to deal with the uncernity without anaylizing and stessing yourself more by doing that. It's hard sometimes.
Little mochi thinking about them you might get anxiety or I won’t feel right. Also deep down you know. Like if you’re overthinking it, don’t find comfort in it then it’s probably you brain. But you never know for sure and that’s okay. Also remember that when you are not feeling good you can get always go back to the magic shop, it’s a safe and loving place right ? I purple you 💜
OCD sucks! I’ve been dealing with HOCD for a while now and the compulsions are killing me! My thoughts seem so real. It’s so scary. I wouldn’t wish OCD on my worst enemy. Stay strong out there everyone
Sam Mullett check out mark Freeman’s videos! I’ve been struggling pretty hard lately and his tips and chats have been amazingly helpful! I’m still on my journey, but I’m starting to feel better about life. I really hope you find peace!
Observe them realise that its random information flying around your head, become the silence that is the present moment after all you are not your thoughts
I have struggled with pure OCD. I know from experience, the more you give into the thoughts and repeat them, the more real they seem. The challenging part, is being able to stop yourself in the act, and deciding not to listen to what your brain is telling you. The less you give the thoughts attention, over time they will start to lose their momentum and the veil of illusion will lift. The thoughts are not you.
OCD (put simply!) involves a misfiring of the amygdala, such that false alarm signals (i.e., irrelevant noise) are experienced as true alarm threats. It feels like there is real danger and that one must respond as dictated by the disorder; however, it is a misinterpretation of threat. Making a active decision to “choose irrelevance” and accept the presence of these thoughts is the most significant step toward recovery...P
You are not ur thought just because u have them doesn’t make them true because there not what I want to do or become . Ocd tries to make u think the worst scenario and make u think u wanan do that even tho u don’t it makes u overthink makes u go insane but all ocd is a bully telling u lies u don’t wanna think but u don’t have to listen u don’t have to do anything the thought is real but doesn’t make it true the fact u don’t like it is proof it’s not real u might not see it now but u will after u awknoldge that all it ever was a thought
What's so fucking frustrating is that i had ocd as a kid and thought i had killed it. But now its come back as pure o. I could deal with everything else, depression and social anxiety mood swings but this is something else. prozac is kinda helping thank God. Slowly im learning to let the thoughts go. I try to visualize them as just thoughts and let them go on there way. I just miss being myself. Ive never been so sick.
For me I have the OCD thoughts when I'm tired and it feels like I either like them or I'm not bothered by them because I'm too tired to care, but once I wake up the next day it freaks me out even more that I had the thoughts and didn't care.
omg I know what you're talking about...that reaching tipping point and coming full circle.. it happened to me recently, and you're so right, it is not flaws, it was something you really needed at the time to cope and protected you at the time because life was tough for a little kid...it just did its dues and you have to thank its services and let it go as an adult and find new ways to be
Arjun Tomar A very important question for me about erp is, if I do the erp can I found out that I’ve been in denial my whole life but never known, and if I do the erp can I find out I’m gay/bi even though my whole life I’ve been so sure im straight?? Or is it HOCD fucking with me badly?? 15 btw I’m terrified if it happens and don’t at all want it to, I’ve loved girls and only girls and 7 month as ago I got HOCD and I’ve been so anxious since. I was laying in bed 7 months ago and I got the thought “what if I’m gay” then I started crying and wanted to die. Now I don’t get as scared or anxious as I did and it makes me scared and more anxious.
@@sleep7270 brother it is the same condition with me. All my life I have crushes on girls and even I. Have a girl friend but recently a thought popped in what if I am gay. And actually it also is induced from porn. I have never opened porn from that day as most of these weired thoughts come from porn addiction. I have been falling in trap of false Attraction, groinal responses. I know that I am straight but brain keep telling lies, I sometimes cry my heart out and even tears have faded , how much these r fearfully. I never ever want to be gay I would rather die. I have girl friend and I love her dearly and that is my strength and I disregard the thoughts and it needs time bro as Arjun tomar said never do reassurance as this is the devil it will pull u back to ocd.
@@tchkbty7489 i feel u i ratha have cancer than have that type of ocd i feel like i'm cursed or some demon is living inside me i wish if i am crazy than have this now i'm living with a death wish
How are you guys doing now. I’m suffering from the same thing. My mind makes me believe i’m gay/bi and it’s horrible. It feels so real. It all started in quarantine for me.
And the Angel(Yahoel) said to me(Abraham), "Answer him (Azazel) not!" And he spoke to me a second time. And the angel said," Now whatever he says to you, answer him not, lest his will affect you. Since God gave him the gravity and the will against those who answer him, answer him not. And I did what the angel commanded me. And whatever he said to me about the descent, I did not answer him. Apocalypse of Abraham 14:10-14 This passage reminds me a lot of our disorder, in that the more you try to rationalize, talk to, convince you and/or your voices the more they have you under their control. What you have to remember is not to even entertain a suggestion or and accusatory thought that may come into your head. Ignore it and it will start to lose it's power over you.
Isobel Briody same here. It’s probably because you are feeling derealization (an anxiety symptom), which is what triggered the fear behind the thought of possibly being in a dream. This fear will fuel anxiety and the resurfacing of the thought. Specific fears are very common for people with anxiety. Realize that it is not the thought that’s the problem, but rather the fear that is attached to it. I recommend Claire weeks “hope and help for your nerves” where she goes into depth about OCD thoughts. This woman is not a great therapist...sorry...it’s just word salad with no real substance. The source I mentioned will be much more helpful :) cheers !
I agree 100% .. I've seen a couple videos where people teach that your thought aren't yours. LoL Of course they are! That's just another way of disregarding responsibility for how you think. If someone has violent thoughts all the time and they keep stuffing them away and ignoring them, when will those thoughts become reality? Your thoughts come from your mind, so they are really your thoughts. If you're always having negative thoughts which influence your emotions and possibly your behavior, you need to find a healthy way to deal with those thoughts and turn them into something positive. Otherwise, you could be getting bogged down by negative emotionally stunting emotions.
thank u so much this really helped, the first 18 years of my life has been filled with verbal abuse, emotional neglect, lonliness, and being stepped on and walked all over by basically my entire family from parents to siblings to cousins to kids at school. But this video was really helpful to me because all my life ive been in my head basically 24/7 for 18 years straight. Never feeling safe, never feeling loved, never feeling like I had any peace. Actually feeling peaceful with life feels very weird to me because I grew up always having emotional and social struggles and abuse. But I'm working on it in a relaxed calm confident manner and it's working really well so far. Thank you so much for the video.
My heart goes out to you. I no what you saying bin in it all my life. With family and the wife beaver be strong keep safe always 🙏🇬🇧❤️from Lancashire England UK pendle witches country
My OCD is killing me. I had HOCD for months since the lockdown and I learned how to control it a little bit, and then it became TOCD a few days ago. I know that I’m straight man inside but the thoughts are just so real. I always had this body swap fetish, but I never wanted to be a woman. It just a sexual fetish, it’s not that I feel uncomfortable with my body. I love being male and likes to work out and having muscular body.
What is OCD ? OCD is the strong painful impulse that tied to every parts of the sufferers' thoughts. These impulse appear involuntarily for thousands times per day. The suffers couldn't stay calm, take a rest, getting concentration ! They get only huge evil pressure, vicious mental exhaustion, being miserably stressful , tremendous confused fearful hopeless mind ! The sufferers live painfully with their unsatisfied mind all day , all week, all month , all year, all time. OCD isn't the preferable habit , mentality, characteristics, and shouldn't be gotten funny mockeries. Psychoanalysis is one best type of its therapies.
Same vrother same. But I know Im still a man. I still want to love women the same, and do manly things that women like. The thought that scares me the most is that I just dont know if some things that are not supposr to be part of what men do sexually arouse me. And that if I do become it, it would be better than being a man, because it would maybe feel authentic. And thats what scares thevliving hell out of me too, that beyond my manhood lies my true authenticity.
Guys, I recommend this one channel that changed my life in 1 day .GO to OCD and anxiety . Say this when you get a thought. Maybe I want to do this Maybe not. I have had the worst thoughts and this simple technique made them go away.
Please help, I’ve been barely having intrusive thought because I’ve learned to realize they weren’t significant to me but now I feel as if those thoughts are my normal thought... I’m so scared now because what if it’s me and not intrusive thoughts
Like I no longer have a panic attack when I get them but I feel almost used to it and got rid of the disgust factor and accepted that I’ll have these thoughts, I don’t agree with my thoughts but always remind myself that I’d never do any of these thoughts.. but I still struggle
That’s ocd your brain is very powerful and will make you feel how you don’t want to feel so if you are scared of getting used to it your brain is going to make you feel like you are used to it, also after a while, ofc you are going to become less scared of the thoughts because they been there for so long it still doesn’t mean that they are you
I had use mindful mediation I learned how to assign every thought (from the subconscious) to assign it a value 0 There is no good thought there is no bad blood! It quite literally saved my life
It seems to me that we are the same people I'm not on my own in life. We need to control. The mind. 🇬🇧❤️ Lancashire England UK pendle witches country. Love you all
REQUEST: What is it like to go thru a day in a mentally healthy way with our thoughts and actions...including confrontations with our neg thoughts.... from waking up to sleeping? What part of our life is living and needing to think like making decisions, social, etc., vs thoughts that distract?
This is the first time I'm hearing this kind of angle on 'being in your head'. For a long time, maybe the past 30 years, I've had people telling me that I 'think too much'. It's probably unintentional but comes across as a clumsy way to be helpful, and can feel quite callous at times, as the commenters seem to assume you can just stop it at the drop of a hat and not be that way. Maybe they are right, I don't know, but it seems to lack understanding. Your explanation about caregivers was interesting. I spent a lot of time in my head as a child and have never made the connection between parents ill-adapted to the affection and reassurance side of parenthood, and my deep-rooted habit of 'being in deep thought' for long periods of time. I've only recently started to see the effects when I'm' at work and go off into the playground of my thoughts for long periods of time ( like a kind of funfair, or happy place I escape to), only to have colleagues ask me if something is wrong, after a while.
I was Jogging Today and i suffer of OCD for like 1 Year Now. During my jog i had some terrifying thought that lasted like 1 Second and it felt so real i was so Desperate and frutrated that i dropped my Sport for Today. On the way home i felt like i do not understand what is going on anymore and Now i had just one thought and i Feel so tired like i Wanted to Meet a Friend Today but i Feel so tired because of my OCD. In the Moment it feels real but like one hour later i realize i was fooled by OCD. I make a Check at the doctor next Week because i wanna know what caused my OCD. They already took a Blood Sample from me and the Next Thing is Next Week. I just dedpertely wanna know the cause although i had a Lo of depressive times before OCD so yeah.
I have thoughts that aren’t true. My head thinks and questions if something happened years ago and it’s digging to find an answer and to try and remember. But I can’t remember anything, to the point where my mind is making up a memory that isn’t real. Are there any tips or advice on how to think and believe that my false thoughts aren’t true ?
I'm very much the same. I think up stuff that I'm convinced has or is going to happen. You have to practice to be in this moment stop thinking about the past or future.
Thinking is a problem solving tool Separate it into two Internal and external For external you can plan your day,work, thinking about solving a problem that is in outside For internal you have no power to solve any You cannot change your emotions, experiences,physical sensations like heart pounding,sweating,shortness of breath like difficulties These problems cannot be solved with a help of thinking Thinking is only external If you turn your focus outward and think something to do right now Your inner problems stops getting feedings from your thinking So your mind reflects to whatever situation is going on outside If you are near the guys you don't like your mind will reflect anxiety it's normal Try thinking how to get out of there Instead of fighting with fear Even After you remove yourself from the situation you still feeling fear means your focus on the internal thinking which will only feeds and renews the experience you had with that person Instead of plan what to buy while going to house to eat What film to watch tonight Remember "Where attention goes energy flows"
I get this when I get intuition I second-guess myself in doubt my parents were really shitty put me down so it doesn’t help me or my self-esteem sometimes you just have to make that decision to go with the flow and follow your instinct
I hear what´s she´s saying: these false beliefs originate from childhood traumatic experiences. Still, there seems to be two distinct psychological explanations for OCD: it´s caused by a misfiring of the Amygdala irrespective of our childhoods, or it results from distorted belief systems caused by some trauma and the protective thinking of the childhood that we carry through our lifes looking for the certainty in any situation, resulting in OCD. Which one is it? Does anybody know?
i am suffering from Derealization kind feeling and i thought and feel like Nothing around me is real or we dont exist and what ever i do is not real and its hard trust me
I think in my case it was a mix of factors that started OCD - the first thing was a measles vaccination, after which I felt my brain broke... as from there on I had my first anxiety attack and felt depressed for two months (at the age of 10). From there on there were OCD themes that popped up ... contamination, what if reality is not real, brain tumor, skin cancer... then when my parents separated I got hit with hocd, false memory ocd, religious ocd and I'm now at existential ocd, respectively sensory-ocd
I can’t fucking do this anymore. No matter how many articles I read, videos I watch, advice I hear, I still can’t get over my intrusive thoughts. I relate to a lot of people in the comments here, but for the most part, my intrusive thoughts are worse/more severe than anything else I hear about. I can’t tell what’s real anymore. I can’t tell if they are intrusive thoughts or reality. I think I’m going to end it all. I can’t live like this.
I suffer through a lot of Ocds I had harm ocd and hocd I had to deal with it but look I’m still here I never hurt myself I didn’t hurt my family and I know I’m straight and stoped Worrying don’t commit suicide
Sometimes i wish something bad for myself cause my mind imposes that on me and if i did what it tells me i would feel comfotabale anyone else ? I don't know what is this and why i think like this but i cannot control my mind !
I want to end it all but I wish I didn't have to because sometimes it feels so real I think I might be making up that its not when I actually just have no idea what is true or not but I hate it I hate myself and I feel like everytime it gets better another ocd theme and challenges appear i am now taking medication but I feel all its doing is numbing me and I cant live my life and I dont know how to make it all just go away or take back the thoughts and the feelings I dont understand but hate
@@Melisayilma hello first I want to start off saying thank you so much for asking and I also want to say that I have improved so much I have had attempts it was a very hard time of my life I still struggle with OCD but I am understanding it more and more and I am very happy to be alive and I am getting the help that I so desperately needed at the time and it's greatly improves my life so hopefully if anybody is struggling they know it will and can get better even if in the moment it doesn't seem like it and again I want to say thank you so much I appreciate that you asked 💕💕💕
I hate ocd I have thoughts lik when I see demonic looking objects or weird I will get a thought I will brake my arm if I don’t tell the last person I thought of I mate say to my self yea ok whatever but then I wonder if I should tell the person or this bad luck might happen

I'm looking for help is this normal I've been straight my hole life and this randomly came and I know I'm straight it's just these thoguhts but whenever I don't have these thoguhts I feel normal but whenever these thoguhts come my mind just takes advantage of my success and is like aw since your not reacting then your gay hahah then it forces me to cry because I know it's not true
Isn’t everything a manifestation of a thought? For example I say that a flower is pretty; that was a thought before. I draw an ocean; I thought of drawing an ocean beforehand. And does talking in your mind (affirmations, etc) count as a thought? Having trouble grasping the practice of being a witness.

I'm not diagnosed with anything but some time ago I became obssesed with existence and thinking this life is all fake and it's so convincing now and then, I spend my whole day avoiding this way of thinking but it's all I think about. i take a look at the sky and panic because how does it make sense? we are on a huge spinning ball in a endless void. did i make this up? is this all fake and just my own illusion or is this real life. I don't know what to do since i can't stop thinking about it and to me it seems very true that this is all fake
I believe I deal with ROCD and I’ve gotten attached to the thought that I don’t love my boyfriend anymore is it true it just a thought I’ve gotten obsessed with?
Mary Cerda ROCD can be so difficult to deal with because often the ROCD derives from actual real life points that make us think those thoughts but largely ROCD is propagated by perhaps our idea of what a relationship should be like and we fool ourselves to think that it doesn’t tick the boxes because we don’t get butterflies in our stomach or whatever but this kind of thinking in turn makes us focus on the negatives and consequently kills the move entirely. I suggest you speak to him openly about your feelings but perhaps try to iron any issues you have towards your partner in a positive open conversation
Heart attack is beautiful it take life immediately butt Ocd is more sacarist mental desease on earth I can't enjoy joyful moments of my daily life.. Mam pls tell about a pill which can settle things i want to live my life From feb 2017 i m suffering from this sacary desease ..... But in india Mental desease is not a big thing... I have all type of sexual ocd Religious is the most scariest...
Wish you the best mate. I had HOCD and all this sexual thing but turned into ROCD which showed me it just needs to concern itself with SOMETHING. As my ROCD started all harmful sexual thought were gone or significantly less important! Pls bare in mind that you are normal and what you go through is normal. It’s human and you are not your thoughts. It’s not the truth.
Hey i wanted to tell you that there is an ocd recovery coach called "ALI GREYMOND" she is actually a lifesaver , write her name in youtube and listen to her own videos , you will never ever regret it i'm telling you 😊💗 and u're going to be good !!
Hi. I'm a female with hocd and rocd with a boyfriend. Get the app nocd. It's an anonymous chat room full of people with different OCD themes and there's ERP on there too if you want to do it.
Shannon Clarke hi know that you are not alone. I was madly in love with a boy while having hocd and it drove me mad. Hang in there, try your best to seek therapy 💛
I have cheating ocd where i love this guy so much and never would cheat but keep coming up with false memories of me cheating and me thinking “what if i cheated but just forgot” which led me to ask a guy online if i ever sent anything sexual or anything and the guy said no i didnt and yet i still believed i could of i even told my bf and my bf said its ok i trust u wven tho he drive me to the point of doubting myself as he accused me due to his own low self esteem. I would never cheat and know on everything i love i never cheated but me thinking in alternate realities makes me think “what if i did” even when i know for a fact i didnt!
Its satan, hes the great deceiver and you wont see it unless you are born again of Gods spirit. Satan made a promise to do this. The devil will pretend to be you in your head, he will use your voice or others. He will pretend to be God as well. Its all a spiritual battle. Drop your anger by forgiving and you will see
My thoughts say that I am fat and guess what I am. Am I not really fat? I can see and feel the fat all over my body. My thoughts say I have no money and guess what I don't. Thoughts say I dont have a girlfriend and I dont. So, how arent my thoughts true when reality shows that they are?
The problem isn't your thoughts but the its undertone. Clearly, it represents these facts as a negative thing. What isn't real is your fear thar that these thoughts underlie. Not every theme of ocd is completely about things aren't true, for example theres Real Event OCD. At the end, ocd obsess about smthn to a degree that is pathological. I don't know if you have ocd but I wanted to clarify that.
oh jeez, cut the "it all goes back to childhood" shit. i grew up just fine but mental illness runs rampant in my family. everyone's either depressed or bipolar or anxiety or etc. some people's brains are just wired differently!!!!! thumbs down...
Totally agree. OCD runs in my family. Literally nothing bad happened in my childhood haha. And when people try to convince me it did, all that does is fuel my anxiety to start tricking myself into thinking I have false memories of a good childhood

OCD (put simply!) involves a misfiring of the amygdala, such that false alarm signals (i.e., irrelevant noise) are experienced as true alarm threats. It feels like there is real danger and that one must respond as dictated by the disorder; however, it is a misinterpretation of threat. Making a active decision to “choose irrelevance” and accept the presence of these thoughts is the most significant step toward recovery...P
Why you say this Pat? Is choosing irrelevance means that your going to act on these thought?
I keep having intrusive thoughts about losing people I love and it’s really scaring me. It’s been bothering me for days now
Those thoughts are just lies to get you to react in a negative way
Ocd has ruin my life but I’m still fighting

Just Keep going
Breno Santana what do u mean by that
You are not ur thought just because u have them doesn’t make them true because there not what I want to do or become . Ocd tries to make u think the worst scenario and make u think u wanan do that even tho u don’t it makes u overthink makes u go insane but all ocd is a bully telling u lies u don’t wanna think but u don’t have to listen u don’t have to do anything the thought is real but doesn’t make it true the fact u don’t like it is proof it’s not real u might not see it now but u will after u awknoldge that all it ever was a thought
Thank you
What's so fucking frustrating is that i had ocd as a kid and thought i had killed it. But now its come back as pure o. I could deal with everything else, depression and social anxiety mood swings but this is something else. prozac is kinda helping thank God. Slowly im learning to let the thoughts go. I try to visualize them as just thoughts and let them go on there way. I just miss being myself. Ive never been so sick.
Girl I’m currently going through this. How’s it been going? I’m also on Prozac
That "I just miss being myself" hits so hard
I'm tired today - ocd attacks me when I'm tired - badly. Like it knows when to attack.
calvan candy I can relate so much when I wake up, or going to bed my ocd takes over cause I can’t fight it because I’m to tired.
Try a plant diet.
Try to stop fightting against It. You choose.
For me I have the OCD thoughts when I'm tired and it feels like I either like them or I'm not bothered by them because I'm too tired to care, but once I wake up the next day it freaks me out even more that I had the thoughts and didn't care.
It attacks me whenever it wants and out of no where but whenever I don't have them I feel normal
It's torturing me
I want to die
I feel like that will be the only release from this
Pray to Jesus for me friends
Do you believe that only the father is God?
Do you know why are you anxious, when you are?

omg I know what you're talking about...that reaching tipping point and coming full circle.. it happened to me recently, and you're so right, it is not flaws, it was something you really needed at the time to cope and protected you at the time because life was tough for a little kid...it just did its dues and you have to thank its services and let it go as an adult and find new ways to be
If I cant trust my feelings/thoughts...how can I trust anything I think?
Exactly same 😭
Im 12 and s boy and I suffer from hocd it sucks. Stay strong every body
Arjun Tomar needed this
Arjun Tomar A very important question for me about erp is, if I do the erp can I found out that I’ve been in denial my whole life but never known, and if I do the erp can I find out I’m gay/bi even though my whole life I’ve been so sure im straight?? Or is it HOCD fucking with me badly?? 15 btw I’m terrified if it happens and don’t at all want it to, I’ve loved girls and only girls and 7 month as ago I got HOCD and I’ve been so anxious since. I was laying in bed 7 months ago and I got the thought “what if I’m gay” then I started crying and wanted to die. Now I don’t get as scared or anxious as I did and it makes me scared and more anxious.
@@sleep7270 brother it is the same condition with me. All my life I have crushes on girls and even I. Have a girl friend but recently a thought popped in what if I am gay. And actually it also is induced from porn. I have never opened porn from that day as most of these weired thoughts come from porn addiction. I have been falling in trap of false Attraction, groinal responses. I know that I am straight but brain keep telling lies, I sometimes cry my heart out and even tears have faded , how much these r fearfully. I never ever want to be gay I would rather die. I have girl friend and I love her dearly and that is my strength and I disregard the thoughts and it needs time bro as Arjun tomar said never do reassurance as this is the devil it will pull u back to ocd.
@@tchkbty7489 i feel u i ratha have cancer than have that type of ocd i feel like i'm cursed or some demon is living inside me i wish if i am crazy than have this now i'm living with a death wish
How are you guys doing now. I’m suffering from the same thing. My mind makes me believe i’m gay/bi and it’s horrible. It feels so real. It all started in quarantine for me.
And the Angel(Yahoel) said to me(Abraham), "Answer him (Azazel) not!" And he spoke to me a second time. And the angel said," Now whatever he says to you, answer him not, lest his will affect you. Since God gave him the gravity and the will against those who answer him, answer him not. And I did what the angel commanded me. And whatever he said to me about the descent, I did not answer him. Apocalypse of Abraham 14:10-14 This passage reminds me a lot of our disorder, in that the more you try to rationalize, talk to, convince you and/or your voices the more they have you under their control. What you have to remember is not to even entertain a suggestion or and accusatory thought that may come into your head. Ignore it and it will start to lose it's power over you.

Very true... just so difficult to do!
Searth for the ebionites.
I worry that I’m constantly in a dream and those thoughts feel sooooooo real
Isobel Briody same here. It’s probably because you are feeling derealization (an anxiety symptom), which is what triggered the fear behind the thought of possibly being in a dream. This fear will fuel anxiety and the resurfacing of the thought. Specific fears are very common for people with anxiety. Realize that it is not the thought that’s the problem, but rather the fear that is attached to it. I recommend Claire weeks “hope and help for your nerves” where she goes into depth about OCD thoughts. This woman is not a great therapist...sorry...it’s just word salad with no real substance. The source I mentioned will be much more helpful :) cheers !

I agree 100% .. I've seen a couple videos where people teach that your thought aren't yours. LoL Of course they are! That's just another way of disregarding responsibility for how you think. If someone has violent thoughts all the time and they keep stuffing them away and ignoring them, when will those thoughts become reality?
Your thoughts come from your mind, so they are really your thoughts. If you're always having negative thoughts which influence your emotions and possibly your behavior, you need to find a healthy way to deal with those thoughts and turn them into something positive. Otherwise, you could be getting bogged down by negative emotionally stunting emotions.
thank u so much this really helped, the first 18 years of my life has been filled with verbal abuse, emotional neglect, lonliness, and being stepped on and walked all over by basically my entire family from parents to siblings to cousins to kids at school. But this video was really helpful to me because all my life ive been in my head basically 24/7 for 18 years straight. Never feeling safe, never feeling loved, never feeling like I had any peace. Actually feeling peaceful with life feels very weird to me because I grew up always having emotional and social struggles and abuse. But I'm working on it in a relaxed calm confident manner and it's working really well so far. Thank you so much for the video.

My OCD is killing me.
I had HOCD for months since the lockdown and I learned how to control it a little bit, and then it became TOCD a few days ago.
I know that I’m straight man inside but the thoughts are just so real.
I always had this body swap fetish, but I never wanted to be a woman.
It just a sexual fetish, it’s not that I feel uncomfortable with my body.
I love being male and likes to work out and having muscular body.
how u control hocd
I have the same thing
What is OCD ?
OCD is the strong painful impulse that tied to every parts of the sufferers' thoughts. These impulse appear involuntarily for thousands times per day. The suffers couldn't stay calm, take a rest, getting concentration ! They get only huge evil pressure, vicious mental exhaustion, being miserably stressful , tremendous confused fearful hopeless mind ! The sufferers live painfully with their unsatisfied mind all day , all week, all month , all year, all time. OCD isn't the preferable habit , mentality, characteristics, and shouldn't be gotten funny mockeries. Psychoanalysis is one best type of its therapies.
Same vrother same. But I know Im still a man. I still want to love women the same, and do manly things that women like. The thought that scares me the most is that I just dont know if some things that are not supposr to be part of what men do sexually arouse me. And that if I do become it, it would be better than being a man, because it would maybe feel authentic. And thats what scares thevliving hell out of me too, that beyond my manhood lies my true authenticity.
Feel you bruh, I been dealing with hocd for months
Guys, I recommend this one channel that changed my life in 1 day .GO to OCD and anxiety . Say this when you get a thought. Maybe I want to do this Maybe not. I have had the worst thoughts and this simple technique made them go away.
Please help, I’ve been barely having intrusive thought because I’ve learned to realize they weren’t significant to me but now I feel as if those thoughts are my normal thought... I’m so scared now because what if it’s me and not intrusive thoughts
Like I no longer have a panic attack when I get them but I feel almost used to it and got rid of the disgust factor and accepted that I’ll have these thoughts, I don’t agree with my thoughts but always remind myself that I’d never do any of these thoughts.. but I still struggle
That’s ocd your brain is very powerful and will make you feel how you don’t want to feel so if you are scared of getting used to it your brain is going to make you feel like you are used to it, also after a while, ofc you are going to become less scared of the thoughts because they been there for so long it still doesn’t mean that they are you
I had use mindful mediation
I learned how to assign every thought (from the subconscious) to assign it a value 0
There is no good thought there is no bad blood!
It quite literally saved my life
Try "Vipassana"
This is actually how I feel. Thank you.😀
Thanks, Amy.

REQUEST: What is it like to go thru a day in a mentally healthy way with our thoughts and actions...including confrontations with our neg thoughts.... from waking up to sleeping? What part of our life is living and needing to think like making decisions, social, etc., vs thoughts that distract?
This is the first time I'm hearing this kind of angle on 'being in your head'. For a long time, maybe the past 30 years, I've had people telling me that I 'think too much'. It's probably unintentional but comes across as a clumsy way to be helpful, and can feel quite callous at times, as the commenters seem to assume you can just stop it at the drop of a hat and not be that way. Maybe they are right, I don't know, but it seems to lack understanding.
Your explanation about caregivers was interesting. I spent a lot of time in my head as a child and have never made the connection between parents ill-adapted to the affection and reassurance side of parenthood, and my deep-rooted habit of 'being in deep thought' for long periods of time. I've only recently started to see the effects when I'm' at work and go off into the playground of my thoughts for long periods of time ( like a kind of funfair, or happy place I escape to), only to have colleagues ask me if something is wrong, after a while.
I was Jogging Today and i suffer of OCD for like 1 Year Now. During my jog i had some terrifying thought that lasted like 1 Second and it felt so real i was so Desperate and frutrated that i dropped my Sport for Today. On the way home i felt like i do not understand what is going on anymore and Now i had just one thought and i Feel so tired like i Wanted to Meet a Friend Today but i Feel so tired because of my OCD. In the Moment it feels real but like one hour later i realize i was fooled by OCD.
I make a Check at the doctor next Week because i wanna know what caused my OCD. They already took a Blood Sample from me and the Next Thing is Next Week. I just dedpertely wanna know the cause although i had a Lo of depressive times before OCD so yeah.

I have thoughts that aren’t true. My head thinks and questions if something happened years ago and it’s digging to find an answer and to try and remember. But I can’t remember anything, to the point where my mind is making up a memory that isn’t real. Are there any tips or advice on how to think and believe that my false thoughts aren’t true ?
I have that problem as well
I'm very much the same. I think up stuff that I'm convinced has or is going to happen. You have to practice to be in this moment stop thinking about the past or future.
Do you know that they arent true?
Thinking is a problem solving tool
Separate it into two
Internal and external
For external you can plan your day,work, thinking about solving a problem that is in outside
For internal you have no power to solve any
You cannot change your emotions, experiences,physical sensations like heart pounding,sweating,shortness of breath like difficulties
These problems cannot be solved with a help of thinking
Thinking is only external
If you turn your focus outward and think something to do right now
Your inner problems stops getting feedings from your thinking
So your mind reflects to whatever situation is going on outside
If you are near the guys you don't like your mind will reflect anxiety it's normal
Try thinking how to get out of there
Instead of fighting with fear
Even After you remove yourself from the situation you still feeling fear means your focus on the internal thinking which will only feeds and renews the experience you had with that person
Instead of plan what to buy while going to house to eat

Hello Amy, very nice to meet you. New Subscriber here! Thank you for providing some great advice. Cheers
I hear what´s she´s saying: these false beliefs originate from childhood traumatic experiences. Still, there seems to be two distinct psychological explanations for OCD: it´s caused by a misfiring of the Amygdala irrespective of our childhoods, or it results from distorted belief systems caused by some trauma and the protective thinking of the childhood that we carry through our lifes looking for the certainty in any situation, resulting in OCD. Which one is it? Does anybody know?

Thanks, damn your very beautiful too.
i am suffering from Derealization kind feeling and i thought and feel like Nothing around me is real or we dont exist and what ever i do is not real and its hard trust me
your doing to much ruminating
I think in my case it was a mix of factors that started OCD - the first thing was a measles vaccination, after which I felt my brain broke... as from there on I had my first anxiety attack and felt depressed for two months (at the age of 10). From there on there were OCD themes that popped up ... contamination, what if reality is not real, brain tumor, skin cancer... then when my parents separated I got hit with hocd, false memory ocd, religious ocd and I'm now at existential ocd, respectively sensory-ocd

My thoughts feel real but are so ridiculous
Great insights Amy
I can’t fucking do this anymore. No matter how many articles I read, videos I watch, advice I hear, I still can’t get over my intrusive thoughts. I relate to a lot of people in the comments here, but for the most part, my intrusive thoughts are worse/more severe than anything else I hear about. I can’t tell what’s real anymore. I can’t tell if they are intrusive thoughts or reality. I think I’m going to end it all. I can’t live like this.
Don’t do that
If your still here it’s for a reason
Intrusive thoughts are just thoughts don’t give in to them
I suffer through a lot of Ocds I had harm ocd and hocd I had to deal with it but look I’m still here I never hurt myself I didn’t hurt my family and I know I’m straight and stoped Worrying don’t commit suicide
I hope this helped you heck if you’re comfortable make a video on your TH-cam channel and you’ll find a lot of people telling you not to do it
Sometimes i wish something bad for myself cause my mind imposes that on me and if i did what it tells me i would feel comfotabale anyone else ? I don't know what is this and why i think like this but i cannot control my mind !
I want to end it all but I wish I didn't have to because sometimes it feels so real I think I might be making up that its not when I actually just have no idea what is true or not but I hate it I hate myself and I feel like everytime it gets better another ocd theme and challenges appear i am now taking medication but I feel all its doing is numbing me and I cant live my life and I dont know how to make it all just go away or take back the thoughts and the feelings I dont understand but hate

I hate ocd I have thoughts lik when I see demonic looking objects or weird I will get a thought I will brake my arm if I don’t tell the last person I thought of I mate say to my self yea ok whatever but then I wonder if I should tell the person or this bad luck might happen

I'm not diagnosed with anything but some time ago I became obssesed with existence and thinking this life is all fake and it's so convincing now and then, I spend my whole day avoiding this way of thinking but it's all I think about. i take a look at the sky and panic because how does it make sense? we are on a huge spinning ball in a endless void. did i make this up? is this all fake and just my own illusion or is this real life. I don't know what to do since i can't stop thinking about it and to me it seems very true that this is all fake
How are you doing now?
I believe I deal with ROCD and I’ve gotten attached to the thought that I don’t love my boyfriend anymore is it true it just a thought I’ve gotten obsessed with?
Mary Cerda ROCD can be so difficult to deal with because often the ROCD derives from actual real life points that make us think those thoughts but largely ROCD is propagated by perhaps our idea of what a relationship should be like and we fool ourselves to think that it doesn’t tick the boxes because we don’t get butterflies in our stomach or whatever but this kind of thinking in turn makes us focus on the negatives and consequently kills the move entirely. I suggest you speak to him openly about your feelings but perhaps try to iron any issues you have towards your partner in a positive open conversation

The problem isn't your thoughts but the its undertone. Clearly, it represents these facts as a negative thing. What isn't real is your fear thar that these thoughts underlie. Not every theme of ocd is completely about things aren't true, for example theres Real Event OCD. At the end, ocd obsess about smthn to a degree that is pathological. I don't know if you have ocd but I wanted to clarify that.
If you have it. Try to stop fightting against It. You choose.
