Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Support Group
Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is a psychiatric disorder, more specifically, an anxiety disorder. OCD is manifested in a variety of forms, but is most commonly characterized by a subject's obsessive (repetitive, distressing, intrusive) thoughts and related compulsions (tasks or rituals) which attempt to neutralize the obsessions.
HAPPY DAY AFTER HALLOWEEN EVERYONE:)
I was thinking something.
How many ocders have bad thoughts? Raise your hands...
Now how many ocders keep most of there thoughts to themselves for fear you will be judged, or looked at differently, or (fear thoughts like locked away, etc etc )
I have come to the realization that when we lock these thoughts and emotions inside ourselves we judge ourselves far greater then anyone outside looking in ever could.
So lets get them OUTATHERE!!!
I keep things to myself because i feel i dont want to upset anyone or depress anyone, or burden anyone.
I lock myself in, in my home, in my personality, in my own mind.
My ocd bad intrustive thoughts range from, killing others and myself to thinking iam a rapist,molester, murder,from thinking iam evil, possessed, daughter of satan, night of the living dead corpse girl,
heck you name it and i have thought something on the subject.
Talk about total creative thinking.ooh but i have help.
from scary movies i have seen 10 years ago, to news reports, music, commercials on tv, books...ooooh yeah....if i have a good mixture of anxiety going on i can produce a thought every 3 seconds on a good day.
I find iam a elephant and cant seem to forget..Heck when my mind doesnt want to shut down..i can remember stuff clear back in the womb...(havent been able to do that yet, but give me some time on it) :)
That is what ocd does, so why should i be ashamed of it or hate myself for it, or beat myself up constantly inside and out because of it
Ya gotta find your smile in it.
Ya have to laugh, allow yourself to feel.
You gotta talk and get those thoughts outta there, so you can begin to lettago.
Its funny cuz ocders just want to be normal....we are normal...
normal people have bad thoughts,
think weird things, do strange stuff.and
have bazaar rituals.
So lets think better of ourselves, and stop hiding, and stop being afraid of everything being so abnormal.
Be who you are, cuz thats the normalist thing you can do.
I love you guys

yes we do have thoughts likje that. i am no longer on meds but the thoughts still come an i tell myself, its not me, its my OCD. just scratching the surface....my thoughts have a huge range but the ones that scared me the most were the ones i would have baout my kids. i KNEW to the core of my bones I would never act on it, but i always felt horrible after... horrible, when i started therapy i was so paranoid my doc was gonna report me to cps - that is part of the reason i held off on therapy for so long, but once i started having panic attacks I could no longer wait.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
