#diagnosed ocd

no offense to myself but like what the fuck am i doing

"lmao I let the intrusive thoughts win, I'm so delulu" I'm begging you to have a single ounce of understanding and common sense before you say things like this.

Tired of random tiktok people in comment sections saying they "let the intrusive thoughts win" when they mean impulsive thoughts, instead. There is a huge difference.

And stop using the term delusional unless you actually fucking are. It's gross.

Sincerely, someone who is having a very bad time with ocd and delusions today.

I will never understand the fascination that some adults have with pushing the boundaries of shy children.

When children have social anxiety, trying to force them to talk to you isn't helping. Scaring them won't make them "less shy". Most likely, they just aren't comfortable enough around you to behave any differently- and that's okay.

Those people that push boundaries then wonder why the child is still "shy" around them and fail to consider that maybe it's because they know that every time you see them that you will push their boundaries.

I dealt with this so much as a kid with undiagnosed autism and it's so sickening to see people do the same to other children.

curious to know abt the correlation between neurodiverse folks and tattoos. bc i as an audhder would simply Never Get A Tattoo because i hate the idea of something being on my body permanently.

(this is also why i want to go on t and have the ftm surgeries but also don't want to anything permanent bc What If I Regret It)

so like nd people. what's y'all's opinions on tattoos.

I'm upset with tiktok. Particularly the mental health aspect of tiktok. It's so inaccurate most of the time but people act like it's not. You shouldn't take mental advice from tiktok. Tiktok is partially responsible for setting back the public's perception of OCD, we were gaining traction in helping people understand that intrusive thoughts don't make us, killers, creeps, or dangerous.

Now we've got tiktok people telling everyone that intrusive thoughts are about wanting to eat too much candy, or poke a Llama in the face because it's so cute. No those are just thoughts, normal thoughts, impulsive thoughts.

They are likely not ego dystonic. They likely do not clash with your sense of self, you most likely do not have a negative or anxious reaction to these thoughts. Intrusive thoughts are unwanted, scary, distressing thoughts that pop into your mind randomly and you don't want them.

People with ocd can't control their thoughts, but now we have people calling OCD people and people with other conditions monsters because they have real intrusive thoughts that follow a common theme, hurting others, doing something bad or perverted. Or something you don't want to do, it can even be thoughts about joining another religion or secretly being a sexuality and not knowing it.

Intrusive thoughts can be anything, but they are always unpleasant and unwanted, they are considered to be ego dystonic meaning they do not go along with a person's sense of self.

When I was younger I would have thoughts about pushing people into the street and them getting run over by cars, I hated those thoughts. I didn't want them, those were intrusive thoughts. Tiktok has harmed OCD acceptance and imagine what it's going to do to Autism, which I also have, if people keep taking advice from tiktok. Please don't take tiktok advice

the thing about mental disorders is after you're diagnosed with more than 2 people stop taking you seriously

[scraemoo]

I love you so much

[tallymarksystem]

"you can't have all of these disorders at the same time you have to be lying" if I could have less I would!!!

Okay, I have a question for all the neurodivergents out there. A few mins ago, I was interacting publicly (reblogs, comments, etc.) with someone on another one of my sideblogs. And it occurred to me that, even though it's somewhat to a lesser degree, I'm still masking while on Tumblr dot com (a.k.a., Neurodivergent Central).

it kinda sucks that SO MANY very normal, but dramatic people claim to be traumatized/have ptsd or cptsd, ocd, bpd, adhd, bipolar, depression, anxiety that it’s almost become.. like a trend i guess? i know a lot of people do have real issues, i’m speaking for those that really do not… i feel like it makes it SO much harder for those of us who actually suffer severely & barely make it through every day to even talk to anyone bc EVERYONE & their mother claims that shit 🥴 stop false claiming true & seriously life-altering mental illnesses! there’s a difference in normal, human feelings/behaviors & actually being diagnosed with problems & literally being chemically imbalanced!!!

[warpaint-sys]

Does anyone else with OCD who also happens to get high also experience fluctuating reactions to the high?

Sometimes it helps, sometimes it makes me worse. I've yet to figure out why or what the signs are that one will happen over the other.

Advice?

housewife activities make me so happy lately

If you think self diagnosing is invalid, I hope you're willing to pay for literally everyone's diagnosis.

Including the actual evaluation, the transportation there and back, possible lost time off work, etc.

I cordially invite everyone who bitched decided that fresh cut grass detonating wouldn’t have killed otohan to 𝒷𝒾𝓉𝑒 𝓂𝑒.

even setting aside matt confirming the fact that otohan only had about 40 hit points left (and that’s a pretty significant setting aside) what does it Matter. why do you care so much more about each and every hit point someone ‘should’ have than the overall story. if that moment felt robbed somehow because it didn’t ‘follow the rules’ or ‘wasn’t right’ – what does that even mean – why are you here. you have an extremely limited capacity for imagination and storytelling. if you need something to be Exactly Right before you can enjoy it. and this is coming from your local bitch with ocd.

if you still feel the need to complain that matt, a gm with years of experience running a complex game for seven of his closest friends who have all built complex characters with extensive backstories, occasionally forgets rules as written or decides to do something different than you think should be done, maybe remember *checks notes*: THIS IS NOT YOUR GAME. THIS IS THEIR GAME. AND YOU’RE CHOOSING TO WATCH IT. FOR FREE.

“not to be a rules lawyer, but–” you know exactly what you’re doing and I want you to shut the whole entire fuck up forever.
