@euphemialyraeyre8710 3 ай бұрын

I remember when I was younger, I kept getting these visual intrusive thoughts and I would always imagine it as a cinema screen or picture in my eyes and I would try to skip it or literally set it on fire and crush it down out of my mind or cover it up with a good image but it would always come back or corrupt the good thought, and I just tried so hard to destroy the image but it was so persistent, and I would just end up sitting there squirming my head and neck and scalp and blinking aggressively, but the more I tried the more resilient and pervasive it became.

@clau_sing_ 3 ай бұрын

I do compulsions all the time, all mental. For example, the other day I saw my father after a year of not having spoken to him and I can't stop ruminating about what I said or didn't say to him, what I think about him... I do this with every single situation that is complicated or has many sides to it, feeling like I know nothing or have no opinion on the subject, which causes me to spiral with anxiety and worry

@DonnHowes Ай бұрын

I got diagnosed with OCD since my teenage, spent my whole life fighting OCD. I suffered severe depression and mental disorder. Not until my wife recommended me to psilocybin mushrooms treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly. 8 years totally clean. Never thought I would be saying this about mushrooms.

@Ronkaja Ай бұрын

Congrats on your recovery. Most persons never realizes psilocybin can be used as a miracle medication to save lives. Years back i wrote an entire essay about psychedelics. they saved you from death bud, lets be honest here.

Can you help me with the reliable source 🙏. I'm 56 and have suffered for years with addiction, anxiety and severe ptsd, I got my panic attacks under control myself years ago and they have come back with a vengeance, I'm constantly trying to take full breaths but can't get the full satisfying breath out, it's absolutely crippling me, i live in Germany. I don't know much about these mushrooms. Really need a reliable source!! Can't wait to get them

Yes he's Dr.benfungi.Shrooms to me is a natrual healer. I know a guy who has used mushrooms in the same way and they have really helped him. mah dudes have safe trips all.

@AndrewLiam-lp5cj Ай бұрын

From my experience it really works excellently! It doesnt even need to be a full hit. With potent shrooms 2-3 small ones will still make a clear difference. It will be a few hour cosy rumbling moment around rest time, but afterwards its just calm and you feel amazing and gain your freedom. Psilocybin is different dudes, its the only "treatment" I would recommend to someone who genuinely wants to get better. There is no addiction, withdrawal, or negative side effects. It's just pure healing., far more effective than any anti-depressant. You can thank me later,

@FluffinWolffox105 3 ай бұрын

Thank you so much! My OCD is almost entirely mental, and this is really what I needed to put the situation into perspective and really start doing something about it. The last few days have been filled with non-stop thoughts and worry which was making me feel like all my fears were coming true. Arguing with it or shoving it out of mind was just making me feel like I knew the thoughts were true and just wanted to pretend they weren't. Pretty soon after I let them be and accepted them, I started to feel my mind get quiet and I was able to focus on other things. I was also able to remind myself that I really didn't need to figure out all my thoughts and feelings right then.

I have had mental compulsive thoughts/feelings of such strange things since I was young, like imagining what would happen if I did this with this object etc. , as a child they were not so bad, but as I got older and was aware of more horrible thoughts and possible emotion related, they got worse. I found confession to a Priest helped.

There should be some kind of OCD community to chat with. I honestly think it would help. I feel so lonely sometimes. NO ONE gets me. I don't even try explaining what goes on in my mind. Reading these comments gave me comfort. I know its a condition that is in me and maybe I'll always have it, but it doesnt define me. I'm much more than my OCD. I have moments where I'm "friends" with my OCD and moments where I hate it. Right now, it's my worst enemy. But if I hate it, then do I hate part of myself? Will I have OCD marks on my skin my whole life because I freakin can't stop picking my skin. It's so frustrating.

@3cheeseup 3 ай бұрын

„Ruling out things“ also is a compulsion by the way. OCD will tell you that you need to be 100% sure about your health condition, but this is impossible. Whenever you give in and go to a doctor you will give confirmation to your OCD thoughts by acting on them.

@charlottesreadsthings211 3 ай бұрын

@@3cheeseup yeah it's a difficult balance between making sure you get a clean bill of health vs seeking reassurance. Mine all came from misdiagnosis from several doctors has led to health anxiety & a need for surgery so hard to believe it's likely "just anxiety". But I've been getting better at not seeking reassurance on that front.

@blueflare3848 2 ай бұрын

Recently I’ve started to consider the possibility that I have pure obsessional OCD. It comes and goes, but there are times where I obsess over a thought for days to weeks to even months. I’m driven by an intense desire to convince myself of something, and I’m not satisfied until I have eliminated all uncertainty and doubt. They’re such insignificant things as well, which makes it all the more frustrating. I don’t understand why they bother me so much. During particularly bad episodes, I feel drained and mentally exhausted. It causes headaches and jaw pain (from being so tense). I’m going to talk to my doctor about it on Friday to get a second opinion.

@shubhankarsharma8705 3 ай бұрын

I guess unconditional self, life and other people's acceptance works great in that. You unconditionally accept the real events, the uncertain events or even the worst case scenarios, that trigger the fear response in you. You might not like the events you might not prefer them, you might feel discomfort cause of them, but you accept them as they happened or might have happened or will happen and accept that you can still live with it. It is not as awful as I fear it is. It's like facing the worst and still choosing to accept yourself, the other person or people and life in general as it is. UNCONDITIONALLY. Doesn't mean you are agreeing to the event, just accepting as it is. And hence realising you can still live this thing. When your fear around the proposed event decreases, the brain doesn't seem it necessary to ruminate over it.

My pure O since the last 20 years is that I saw my friend's dad died in an accident and his body was brought in their home the next day. I was probably 8 or 9 years old then. Ever since then it keeps putting my dad in that body's place and i get scared AF as I am very close to my dad and I have to distract myself from the image, but then it comes back again. I still havn't got rid of the compulsion and feel exhausted. Cud anyone suggest ways to overcome this?
