@milkisgood4you_ It can be a super dangerous mental illness and just continues to become more and more out of hand. I’m sorry to hear the spot you’re in and idk you, but I feel for you. Just know you are still the pilot of your life and you can choose to resist! Sending light your way ❤️🩹
@milkisgood4you_ I’m in an ERP program for my OCD, and was afraid to wear shorts in public until a couple weeks ago, afraid I’d get literal HIV somehow. I’m already wearing shorts and dresses in public and touching elevator buttons and door handles now and it hasn’t been that long.
@milkisgood4you_ ERP works! Look at a chart online for the OCD cycle and try to identify your triggers, the feelings you get, and your compulsions. You perpetuate the cycle by performing your rituals. Try resisting one smaller compulsion and tell yourself “I’m choosing not to figure this out”
I’m so mentally ill rn (OCD with many subtypes) due to my dad being in hospital/passing combined with general grief I can’t wait for life to feel whimsy again
