OCD

[Midgardsorm]

Does anyone here suffer from severe OCD?

To the point you would ctb because of it.
Because of thought seemingly completely irrational. Fears that neither you can explain perfectly. Or simply intrusive thoughts that might destroy your day.

I remember a scene of the movie "The Aviator" where Howard Hughes portrayed by Leonardo DiCaprio keeps repeating words non-stop.

And it terrifies me.

Mine isn't like that, but I can completely understand what's going on in his mind at that time.
I could be like that.

Comedian Howie Mandel also stated he is ocd once. I relate to all those people.

I wonder if anybody managed to recover from this. All I can do is keep it at bay.


Holy moly! As if I didn't had enough problems already ...

I suffer from OCD.

Problem is that it gets worse if your life quality worsen. Thats when it spins out of control and its getting unbearable to the point of suicide.

Also, it's making you feel really handicapped because the thoughts just clam everything else up. It's like a domino effect of bad choices your brain makes.

Totally. My ocd worsen like x1000 during a few times where things were just going crazy.
And now I can't reduce the problem anymore.

I've tried CBT and ERP but didn't got too far.
