I have OCD. I was wondering if anyone else goes through what i am going through?!
Question: I have OCD!. I was wondering if anyone else goes through what i am going through!?
I have the type of ocd that I worry if I will accidentally hurt someone by accident!. I could be doing something, and then I get these accusing thoughts that I did something to hurt someone!. I know that I didn't do anything wrong, but then I obsess for hours and days that I did do what the thought said!. I then go over and over in my mind( the ritual) what I was doing at the time that I got the thought to prove to myself I did nothing wrong and that everything is okay!. I know the thoughts make no sense, but I still worry that I've done something wrong!. IDoes anyone else go through this!? I would feel so much better If I knew I was not the only one going through this!. I am on meds, and I saw a doctor, it helped a little, but I am still going through this!. When 1 obsession ends, then a new one starts!. I know it makes no sense, but I feel like I am guilty of the thought and think what if I did do something unknowingly!. Does this make any sense!? Please help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
Yes, I am suffering from the same exact thing!. I am actually somewhat emotional after reading your question!. You are NOT alone!. There are days where I cannot function because the "guilt" is so strong, even when I did nothing wrong!. It is so hard, it really is!. You can't even go out to have fun without having the OCD ruin something!. When I do something and my OCD makes me think I did something on purpose, I feel like I murdered someone even though I did nothing!. It's not easy, it's not easy!. Seroquel is a good medication for OCD!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
I can relate 100%!. Yes, I experience the intrusive thoughts!. They're very disturbing!. It's very comforting to have someone supportive with patience who can sympathize or empathize!. What I do is replace the disturbing thoughts with silly ones that make me laugh!.

Dont worry, if you really think about it everyone has something they obsess over!.!.like i have to do the sign of the cross 3 times after i say all my prayers(im a Catholic :P), and other things too!. In reality, everyone has there own sorta obsessions just some over obsess more than others thats all you need to think about!. (Sorry if that didn't make sense!.) If you feel you are concerned about this OCD problem you think you have then i suggest visiting your doctor and maybe he can help analyze your situation better!. :) Have a good day!Www@Answer-Health@Com
