I really appreciate your willingness to open up about the struggles you have with mental health. As someone who struggles with mental health (Anxiety, Depression, and ADHD, in my case) and has been harmed by the stigmas in society around mental health (even being fairly well educated and married to a mental health professional, I still find myself in those toxic thought patterns) I really appreciate the courage of anyone who takes time to stand up, and speak their experiences. It shows people that we are not in this together, we are not alone, and works to break down those barriers and stigmas! Thank you and I hope you are able to find effective coping mechanisms, strategies, and/or medications to help ease the symptoms you experience.
For a very long time I spent a lot of time thinking that I was just a kind f jealous person when I was with my ex, it took a lot of work and effort to figure out that it wasn't just a situation of being "jealous," per say. Some of the therapists I've worked with think that an extended period of time with untreated other issues, caused them to lead into ROCD. I can't speak on other forms of OCD, but I imagine they're very similar in that they are hell to deal with. Fighting a battle where you're both the victim and the abuser because both sides are your brain and emotions. I'll keep hoping that you keep up the strong work you've been doing so at least one of us overcomes things and finds happiness!
Had something similar once towards my closest friend. Was so bizarre, I thought I had a "jealousy" issue, but in reality was more likely to be OCD. I'm not usually a jealous person
@humza890 For me the like "jealousy," aspects only really came out when I was in the relationship. Before that it was the constant self questioning, 'Do they actually like me, am I being too much, was what I said/did wrong, are either of us actually happy interacting with each other, do they know I actually do care,' shit like that. they run around like a song stuck on repeat and it's enough to drive you nuts because you know they're dumb things to think. They've just eroded any like hope/confidence you have so you can just mever get back up. I really hope you managed to find a way to treat things before they got too far or have found something/someone that manages to silence that side of things if they kept around.
I hope so Splishbe! I hope you do. You are so loveable and the right person will see that someday! I can see you finding a diamond in the rough that you can enjoy your time with, encourage each other etc. All good steps to getting where you want to be. It can be hard to do it alone sometimes. I say this cuz I know from experience what doing everything alone can be like.
These videos continue to help me a fair bit, I really admire the openness and the pushing forward. One day we’ll get past the struggles, and reach the promised land of snuggles.
I've gone through harm OCD, which is where I had constant intrusive/unwanted imagery and thoughts of hurting others. Ended up committing die multiple times because of it. Eventually got diagnosed and exposure and response prevention + medication worked really well for me!
Damn. Not me figuring out I have OCD… My compulsion is wanting to correct my past mistake and reminiscing on them. My mechanism to snap myself out of it is audibly saying “I don’t care”.
Hi again Splish, yeah I understand a alot im also on that boat of running that thought in my head. Maybe its a fear of not wanting to do something about. Maybe its a sub thought telling me that not doing something will bring us something even though that doesn't really make sense. What im doing to cope right now is just talking to the 2 friends that I have that things will be okay no matter what happens. And hey you got plenty of us looking out for you.
I definitely have OCD, but I didn't know there were different types. Watching this just made me go do some research. Looks like I mainly have "checking OCD," though some of the others apply to an extent
My sis is OCD. You guys can be tough to be around. Very pushy. I have addiction, I tend toward chaos. Yes you can make the life you want. You can build a life. OCDs like building anyway. Do something, anything, for 10 minutes. Do everything ten minutes at a time. If you want to paint, paint for ten minutes, do yoga for ten minutes, read a book for ten minutes, talk on the phone for ten minutes. People will work with you.
I suspect you believe in God. The thing is, you can ask God for absolutely anything and if you put in the work and it aligns with his plan you shall receive. What you should know is, you can ask God to unburden yourself from those feelings, simply ask. The reality is, Jesus loves us all and he appreciates the efforts you put it, the love, and care... all of it. Ask God for your next step, you'll be fine, your life won't be what you predict, but if you look back, you will still see God's love, even when you felt miserable, alone, or inadequate, you were protected and still loved. I'm sure you'll do just fine.
I feel like you probably got OCD from a parent. Christians attribute lots of intrusive thoughts to demonic attacks and I agree. You need the help of God to fix this. You are already getting defeated because this problem drains your energy a lot. You definitely need God on your side. Don't throw away prayer and faith. Patience in getting an answer from God is key, but faith in Him is necessary. You should learn more about faith and prayer.
I'm now utterly curious...What IS the Life you want?? Because that really determines how feasible it is to achieve, and what actionable steps you can take to turn it into a reality!! ❤️🔥🫂🙏🤞🍀 I feel much the same way though, only I look at my struggle more like the Tortise plodding along. I know where I want to go, and how to theorhetically get there...but the distance between A and B is long, slow, and rife with unforeseen hurdles/distractions. But ever onward I continue! Hoping to equally stop the nagging voice in my brain that says we have big things to accomplish before the race is over. So, I would love to know what you envision for your idyllic life!?? ❤️🔥🫂🙏🤞
Change your mindset from what you can get, to what you can give and life will start revealing it's beauty to you.

I do like your channel and I do say that having OCD is not a burden, I do appreciate your honesty and it's all about patience.

You are a genuine, beautiful person who just found your channel, and i think you are awesome. I love your hair

It would be interesting to hear more about that ideal life that you want.
I think you might feel more contentment if you flip your goals from "the life that I want" to "what value can I bring to others today"
Probably yeah :)
Blahhh. Super Anthony is an Idealist…I’m sure they wouldn’t disagree.
I suggest making one happen…then work on two. If one and two are the same…great.
@@vivalapsych the more concerned with your happiness you are the less you'll be happy
@@SuperAnthony3 perhaps. I wouldn’t take that as an axiom.
Its not about getting that life, its about building that life. But you look and sound like you're doing good

You’re in the drivers seat. Depends on the choices you make and a little bit of luck in the mix. You got this!
I have OCD (in addition to autism /ADHD) and I have been struggling with the existential kind as well.

Well at least you have the life that you got👏🏽🤷🏽♂️

It takes patience to get the life that you want. Keep moving forward and you will get there
Color code your day. Make an itinerary for every day. Ask. I know a lot about this.
No worries u gotta be tougher then woodpecker lips
So clever, never stop trying no matter how many times you ? it.

I think that may be an unattainable goal. Realistically I would focus on getting happiness within the life that you have.
One day at a time :-) You're looking good, got that pep!
Is this recommended to me cause my youtube searching. Never searched anything ocd
What a beauty❤❤❤❤
I don't know if I have OCD, or if the Autism allows me to feel germs.... 😳
I made a video for ya.💜💎🌎
When you ask for the life that you want, will you know you have it when you get it?
Yes
Hey I've got the same thing, obcd
I've delt with ocd since I was 11 an at 39 I can somewhat deal with it
You will trust me
How do you wipe with those nails?
😅
Can you tell us all any details about the life you want ?
What life do you want?
I dont think you will get the life you want. Most people don't. Like 99.999 dont
I suspect you believe in God. The thing is, you can ask God for absolutely anything and if you put in the work and it aligns with his plan you shall receive.
What you should know is, you can ask God to unburden yourself from those feelings, simply ask.

I'm sure you'll do just fine.

So you're saying you've always been beautiful?
What even is the life that you want?
I feel like you probably got OCD from a parent. Christians attribute lots of intrusive thoughts to demonic attacks and I agree. You need the help of God to fix this. You are already getting defeated because this problem drains your energy a lot. You definitely need God on your side. Don't throw away prayer and faith.

You are so beautiful...
