I just wanted to update and say that Prozac has helped me so much. I don't get obsessive like I used to. It's so nice and I wish I'd started it ages ago, but late is better than never. To anybody struggling, recovery is possible. You can do this!

I hope you find/found something that helps

I'm going to be starting a low dose of prozac. Does anybody have any experience with it?

It is, isn't it? Thank you, GBG! And you're right! I can do this!

You're right, it's insidious like that! I guess I was just wondering how to go about it

You accept it by letting go and moving on. The past is past, and compulsions only keep it in the present. Accept uncertainty. It's all you can do.

Is it possible to have Morality OCD, but for other people? Like, obsessing over whether or not people are good or bad? Is that a thing?

Congrats on your progress!

Well then you've hurt her forever. You can't change the past by worrying about it. What's done is done. More importantly, what're you going to do about your ocd?

Thank you! I'm glad I could help

No problem! Hope I helped

I second lost, it's textbook ocd

Maybe you are, maybe you aren't. Who knows?

Trying to stem OCD doubt is like trying to stop the waves. Impossible. All you can do is let the thought be there, and carry on. I know how hard that sounds, believe me, but it's what we have to do.

If you didn't doubt, OCD wouldn't be doing a very good job.
