Hi everyone ,

On top of my mild depression and anxiety/panic attacks my OCD has been so bad lately ( fear of contamination , checking , having everything in order )

Anyone else has the same problem ? I feel so alone 😭

I've got OCD. Checking is the worst for me. Fear of contamination and having this a certain way are my second issues. We've got the same things. You aren't alone. Take a big breath and just be for a few minutes. Maybe turn on some music. It'll calm you down. Hugs! :)

Hi Foxglove, you are not alone. I suffer from ocd, checking, everything has to be " just right "

I am forever over thinking everything, so many compulsions. I have medication for anxiety/depression but it doesn't work for my ocd. Message me whenever you want to talk, I'll be here. :)

Thanks Catwoman ! I will add you to my friends list ! I don’t feel my anxiety meds are helping with my ocd !

I am so sorry ! Mine has also been really bad lately . Yesterday I cried for couple hours because after cleaning the bathroom and thinking I had inhaled too much of the mold and mildew cleaner . Thanks for letting me know I am not alone ! ❤️
