Hiya I did get this an awful lot when my OCD got worse, id see a spec of dust and think it was something else, or feel something and think it was related to the thought, I think all it was that my brain was putting all these things together and giving them meaning when there wasn't any, like a heightened sense if you like, normally we wouldn't even notice an itch, or that speck of dust floating off the window. It did die down alot when starting to work on OCD, sometimes i think it now but mostly its gone away. Link to comment
Guest Chelle Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 ye, its just another part of anxiety. heighted awareness, and doubt about whats really there. Link to comment
Guest Kelg Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Yes yes yes. I have issues about people and faces so if I am walking and I see someone in the distance I may immediately assume it is someone bad for my OCD and my mind will create a depiction of their face in my mind. Then I get close and realize it wasnt the case. Not fun. Link to comment
