Gary S Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 How do I know the feelings of anxiety I have are down to ocd and not just a guilty conscious? I'm pretty sure I havnt done anything to feel guilty about but my mind keeps telling me you wouldn't feel like this unless you've got something to feel guilty about! Quote Link to comment
Caramoole Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 OCD is also often referred to as the Doubting Disease for good reason. Sufferers struggle because they want certainty, something they can't have but the search & desire for it keeps them stuck. There is a mass of information available about OCD, the common themes people experience, we have to reasonably accept those explanations and utilise the recommendations and move forward without being able to be certain.

thistooshallpass1996 Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 That’s what it wants you to think though, that’s what OCD does. It’s like a bully and it won’t go away until you stop giving it attention. I’m still struggling to put this into place though. easier said than done Quote Link to comment
