Anyone else have a general feeling of dread?
Sometimes I'll have the general feeling Something Bad is going to happen. Is this common with OCD?

I don’t know if it is OCD related, but yes, sometimes I do have feelings of “waiting for the other shoe to drop”. Typically it’s when things have been going really well, and I start to anticipate something bad happening. I also ruminate on it and start to have intrusive thoughts about what may happen so, yaknow, maybe it is a little more OCD related than I though 😅
All the time... especially since I'm finally in a safe place now. I just keep waiting for the next "bad" thing to happen. We will be okay though.
Yes. It’s and awful feeling something it just hits randomly it kinda feels like I don’t know what’s wrong but something is. ❤️🩹 hang in there be as present as you can. Laugh anyway and live happily because you deserve it.
My head feels weird all the time, it feels like I have a tight headband around it squeezing , like heaviness and a really weird feeling, literally feels something is wrong inside, I also feel spaced out and this feeling of going literally crazy at certain moments of the day and the anxiety spikes. The thoughts are always there 24/7 even in the back of my mind, nothign I do makes these feelings and thoughts go away which is extremely scary. I can’t go on like this, wish I woke up tomorrow and OCD didn’t exist anymore. Do you guys also feel like this? 😫
Has anyone ever just felt weird? It’s hard to explain but I just feel weird lately. I usually suffer with harm OCD and I feel like lately I’m not reacting to things I normally would. There’s certain things that will trigger me a little but then other times (like over the last few days) it’s like I feel nothing. I’ll get thoughts and because I don’t feel the physical sensation in my chest or get very emotional like I normally would it’s weird to me. Does this mean I’m liking the thoughts now? Or like I’m comfortable with those actions happening? I’m so confused. Has anyone ever gone through this?
I always wake up full of dread and fear. My anxiety is through the roof two seconds after I open my eyes. Someone on this app gave me a similar insight once I believe. But I think anxiety is just the urge to ruminate. About what? It probably doesn’t matter, as long as I can torture myself, as OCD loves. Does anyone else relate to this or agree maybe?
