News of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) Forum

Hey guys

I'm new to this forum so apologies in advance if I'm posting in the incorrect area.

I have been suffering from what I think is anxiety/OCD. Mine is very fear based(ie losing family and friends) however lately I've been having racist words popping up in my head. Everytime I see a certain race a racial slur / word pops up. It makes me feel ashamed and embarrassed and I feel terrible.

Unfortunately it ...

Hey guys! i'm new here so please be supportive.

(i'm 16). even tho she's my first gf we decided to sleep together and it was fun. i've also dealt with anxiety and intrusive thoughts in the past. but one day i read upon cuckoldry. i obviously wasn't into the fetish but it was just interesting how someone could ever get turned on ...

I suffered from really bad hypochondria from my mid thirties to about 50. I was always thinking I had heart disease, cancer, Lou Gehrig's Disease, a host of others. Now and then the fear got so bad I'd visit the emergency room or made doctor's appointments. I never had anything close to the diseases I feared, and there were times I really felt I had the symptoms. I literally felt like I was dying, even ...

Hello everybody. So i made this account to ask something that bothers me for around a year or so. And its making me crazy.

It all started back in 2016. I’m afraid that i’m gay. The thought is so scary and crippling. Now the fear had just moved – i’m afraid that i am a transgender. I once stated back in my childhood that i want to be a woman, but my mother say no. ...

every time I have a rlly bad episode with intrusive thoughts, the only way I can get them to stop is by self harming. I've tried healthier ways but they don't go away, it's like they get louder and worse. I don't know what to do and I'm scared of myself and what I'll do bc I've hurt my animals and friends before while having intrusive thoughts and I don't wanna lose them. I feel ...

I've posted previously regarding this particular fear, it went away for a long while but has recently just resurfaced.

I've had a long history of obsessive worries, such as vomiting, health, sexual orientation, harming others, but now it's gone to the extreme of harming myself... I just don't feel brave enough to straight up say the worry.

It all started when I was watching a film that involved a suicidal act and my mind immediately ...

Hello my name is Trey, I'm 16 years old and I have been dealing with HOCD for 14 months so over a year. I have one question that has been something I have yet to see any other hocd sufferer talk about, and this really makes my hocd terrible.

So we all know about anxiety and butterflies. Butterflies when you have a crush and anxiety like when you have a big test or big game ...

Hey guys. Wanted to see if anyone can relate to me. Several weeks ago I had strep throat and I took antibiotics for 2 days and got a allergic reaction and i stopped. I told my nurse and she said it was fine to stop because i felt fine. Right after I developed severe OCD and anxiety and depression. I started having a lot of suicidal thoughts and my anxiety was high. I have never ...

You're not alone and I hope you get better. I am struggling with it as well. I am a 21 year old gay feminine man who up until three weeks ago never questioned his gender and now? I feel absolutely awful. I haven't been diagnosed with ocd, but whenever I have felt worry I go onto these forums. I think within the span of a few days I went back to threads dating back to ...
