Why do I have OCD?
So I think that I have OCD. It is majorly annoying and interferes a lot with my life. I guess it is not too bad, other peoples are way worse, but it gets really annoying. I probably just have a minor case.
When I was younger I hated when people looked at me. I picked my eyebrows and eyelashes.
Anyways some of my symptoms now are: -I wash my hands all the time, they get cracked, red, and sometimes bleed. -I count my footsteps. -I can not step on cracks in the sidewalk. -I have to sleep a certain way. -I brush my teeth with the same amount of stroke on each side of my mouth. -My food can not touch each other. -The TV and radio volume have to be on an even number. -If I do not right something perfect, I rewrite it until it feels just right. -I do not sit on the toilet seat in any public bathroom. -I can not eat around people because if they make a noise chewing or something, I freak out. -If I touch something with my left hand, I have to touch it with my right hand too. -When I read, I have to read the whole page without making an error..If I do, then I have to start the page all over until I do it successfully.
I have more symptoms but I am not going to keep going on.
I am also afraid to have a baby when I am older, because I think I am going to die in labor. I am afraid of getting cancer since my grandma had it.
I do a lot of things because I feel if I don’t, something bad will happen. I have had images of stabbing my mom, cutting myself, my parents dying in a fire, sexual images, etc. I feel like those images will come true if I do not do certain things.
Come on, I am only 16 and every little thing bugs me. I don’t know what to do?
I am sorry. But you just can’t worry about things like giving birth or getting cancer.
just try not to freak out or do any of the other things.
Sigh. Isnt it simple to say just stop. If you could stop then you would have already. Honestly, I would consider counseling. I went through this whole time period with cleaning (I can feel your pain with the cracked skin. I didnt know you could get tiny little cuts all over your hands like that!), drove my family insane. I still have a bit of it, but therapy really helped. And listen, whether it is a minor case or not you still need help.
