Living with OCD

The core concept of OCD revolves around uncertainty.

OCD does not stop until it gets certainty.

I have so many symptoms of finding information to get answers, reassurance seeking, checking, replaying conversations, just to get certainty from my doubts.

I have OCD doubts in even seeing things.

I end up having replays of images of things or people, due to doubting, and trying to gain certainty.

OCD makes me doubt if I even heard something correctly.

It makes me hear incorrect things, and then create doubts about it.

Thus, living with OCD is very difficult in life.

I just wanted to share my daily living with OCD.
