Hi
Yes I have OCD
It is like i keep checking things over n over again
For example-If i will fill a form i keep revisting n checking the details again n again
This really makes my work very slow
N causes hinderanceā€¦
Anxiety,fear,overthinking,
nervousness causes OCDā€¦
So the way i try to manage is by thinking that nothing is that imp
Suppose some detail in form is wrong also
So heavens willnot collapseā€¦

Right???

So basically we need to stop giving too much imp to anythingā€¦

Stop chasing perfection

We should accept that we can make mistakes n it is ok to make mistakesā€¦

Suppose ur anxious before any interview
U must take it like this that interviewer is also humanā€¦
You are facing another humanā€¦

Other way is to remind myself
I maynot be that good at anything
But i am neither bad

Having faith in urself helpsā€¦

Also one must remember
No matter what
Whatever is destined to happen will happen
ā€¦

You can only put ur best efforts
Outcome isnot entirely in ur hand so no point in being stressed about outcome

Good luck.
God bless.
More power to you

Hi,
So while setting the bedsheet just know that sometimes unset or lil weirdly set bedsheet also looks okā€¦

Just start timing urself
As in to set bedsheet not more than 1 min
Etc etcā€¦

I know sounds silly
But just trying to helpā€¦

Good luck
Take careā€¦

Me. I cant deal with it at all. It gets worse everyday. I just try not to think about it, which is lame.

These thoughts just keep popping in my head as long as I am awake.

I really relate to you. Itā€™s kind of difficult for me to sit alone with my mindšŸ˜ž.
I am trying to seek help maybe you should too approach a therapist if you already are wishing you lots of power and strength to gradually go from avoidance to facing and resolving these thoughts. šŸ‘šŸ»āœØ
Seems like we are on the same journeyā€¦šŸ™‚āœØ

Thanks. Itā€™s hard for me to seek help because I tried it once and I was insulted. No one cared. But Iā€™ll see what I can do.
Good to see I aint alone In this. I feel bad for all of us. Good luck to you too.

Itā€™s hard but sure we have to ,we can, we will get over this one day! One day very soon!
Itā€™s really strong of you to look forward and see if you can seek help,once again.
Thank you hope we get through this,all of us and make the lives we want.
