Question
Anyone else have ocd psychosis or ocd of madness?
Anyone else have ocd psychosis or ocd of madness?
Yes I do.
What are your triggers if you don't mind me asking
@Anonymous It started when my latest ocd theme of harm ocd started - along the lines of “why would I lose control and hurt someone? I’m not psychotic, wait what if I am psychotic?” And then I start over analysing everything I do and think. I question what I hear, what I see etc. it’s also hard to shake because even though I’m in my forties and have had ocd since I was a child, these themes are new and my thoughts seem so ‘mad’ and utterly awful it feels like psychosis could be likely even though I rationally know I’m not psychotic.
@Shi47 Oh and I also forgot that another trigger is what happens when I’m half awake l, half asleep eg when not waken by an alarm- these are awful. They’re even called hallucinations (hypnagogic and hypnopompic hallucinations) and even though they have nothing to do with psychosis they still scare me.
I get angry at my thoughts
Recently ive had ocd thoughts that are really weird and make no sense (they sound like thoughts that someone would have if they were in physcosis eg. What if trump can communicate with you through your head) like what??? Sometimes it feels like i believe it??? Which stresses me out and im constantly worried that im going through physcosis since i sort of belive it? I know deep down its ridiculous but it almost feels like i believe it?? Im scared. Like sometimes im calm with the thought. Im like oh okay maybe. Then sometimes my brain tries to imagine him like talking to me through my head??? Am i going through physcosis.??
i have been diagnosed with OCD & generalized anxiety disorder. for some reason, i’ve been very hyper aware of everything. like the way i talk, the way i see the world, how certain things sound/look/feel, and it’s very distressing. i feel like the hyper awareness makes me afraid of things? like for some reason, my mind attached to cartoons, and i was hyperfocusing on it, and got extremely scared, like scared of the cartoon for no reason? i’ve done this a lot, and i get scared i have psychosis or schizophrenia, or something that makes you afraid of things for no unknown reason. i feel so scared that this is my new normal…. im heartbroken. so many what if’s. did i just ruin my own life?? 💔
Hello everyone. I often get the feeling that I will go crazy or in a state of permanent suffering. The thought is very persistent and I think is OCD repeating that disturbing thought. If anyone feels the same way. What do you do about it?
