    Worst thing of OCD that you feel like the most evil person or failed person on earth. You can also feel very alone and being afraid to be judged by others. Also being outfreeze from the society.

    Ocd is like having the person that hates you the most and wants to see you suffer and be hopeless right inside your mind. It is so weird because I thought that our mind wants the best for us and has a role to protect us, but in Ocd this role is used in a bad way as it turns right against us. Ocd is an everyday challenge, a fight you must go through to achieve a better and meaningful life.

      A J Yes to this 100%. It took me a while to accept my health anxiety and when I started to do that these last few weeks my theme changed to harm ocd now. So now I have to accept these thought cuz holy cow they are much scarier than harm ocd. But I won’t give up and I’ll keep on going so I can finally recover from ocd:)

    • @CoolLatiasLatios
      @CoolLatiasLatios 4 года назад

      A J I basically tell myself if god wants to give me cancer or any sickness that no matter how much worrying I do I cannot change my outcome. So now I just live life in the present moment and always remind myself of this when my mind wonder’s to that at least for my health anxiety. P

    • @jgilbertson636
      @jgilbertson636 4 года назад +1

      CoolLatiasLatios I do the same. But then my friends tell me that God doesn't give anyone cancer, only the devil. Crazy the different ways we try to explain the world to ourselves and world views.

    • @CoolLatiasLatios
      @CoolLatiasLatios 4 года назад +1

      Julia Gilbertson Thats good because I’ve been the type to worry about my health a lot. It’s what started my story last year into what it is now. I just got so fed up with it I’m like ok so what if I die now I can’t change that outcome now. I realized I was going more harm to myself worrying about my health than actually living LOL.
      Ah I see where you friend is coming from. Honestly I have made so many peace with a lot of things that I don’t view it like that. I just say that’s what god wants to happen to me than that was my fate.
      What you said towards the end makes a lot of sense. Makes me think like how one doesn’t care a lot (doesn’t have anxiety disorder/ocd) and we the people who have this care so much about it hence took me awhile to accept health anxiety. Now to accept the harm ocd is much more difficult to accept>_

    I feel terrible because I always ruminate, try and make sense of it, etc. Then, it makes the thoughts so much worse. So that is my fault for making the thoughts worse. 😢 i feel so ashamed to see these things in my mind and that I think about them, sometimes like calmly and wonder if the bad things are okay when I KNOW they are not okay. I don't know how I can ever unsee these thoughts.

    Thank you! Could you do a video about healthy anxiety ocd for both physical health and mental health(bipolar, going to go crazy, feeling you aren’t real). And maybe do a video discussing recovery. I keep seeing people who are activists and similar to coaches as you saying this is a chronic illness so you could always relapse. I though recovery means you don’t have it anymore. Is it rather remission instead? Please help me understand this

    I was having days without OCD but now I’m having a setback and it’s getting hard for me to control rumination and compulsions. I literally cry myself to sleep every night. I know it’s OCD but there are triggers every where and I get these very real scary feelings. I have OCD about books. I keep trying to reassure myself that these are just stories and not real. I hate OCD 😢

    Yo its long but whoever cares to read thank you.
    So ive been going through what i think is HOCD (i match up with all the Symptoms). All my life ive looked at myself without a doubt being STRAIGHT, now i dont know if society has gotten into my mind at a young age and that ive programmed my mind subconsciously without eve knowing but i now damn well that i was so happy and always wanted a wife and kids one day. Im a 16 year old male and im worrying that puberty is showing me some hidden/secret self, Could this be the case??, The thing i dont get is why i get these wierd feelings without a lot of anxiety, like yesterday i intentionaly thought of a women in bed with me and i got happy and a warm feeling and ofcourse then i got the thought of a man, I didnt get that much anxiety from i but i worried and it sucks. I also dont know if im bi (i dont want people commenting "its ok to be bi" or "Being bi gives you two options" no no no no I DONT want 2 options i only want to be attracted to girls) No i know you can want stuff but you dont always get what you want and man does this scare me (wanting to be straight but im not). I dont know if im insanly deep in the closet or so scared to come out that i dont realize it or something like that. Its really sad because before i was so comefortable in my skin and didnt worry about JACKFUCKING SHIT of my sexuaality and knew i was straight, Now, not so much anymore. Ive fapped like crazy since i was 10 and maybe porn and fapping is then problem or maybe not, really hope it is. Ive lost the drive to be with women and what sucks is that i dont really care, and this destroys me. I feel kinda numb and its making me think im bi,
    I dont know if ill ever go back to my self where i loved myself and didnt worry about this or that im bi and deep in the closet and dont know. I dont know if ive been subconsciously been bi my whole life wihtout a clue or if its all thsi shit is HOCD.
    Thank you whoever reads this reallllllllly appreciate you.

      Bro ur not gay it’s ocd I’ve had these thoughts but I’m j like nah I’m not. Obv this is the worst thing u can imagine is being gay. Therefore ur not gay. My worst fear is losing my family by my own hand that’s why I have harm ocd. Ocd comes after what u value most. Yours being straight. Hope this helps bro.
