False memory

Yesss! I am currently stuck in that loop myself! I keep thinking I’m gonna end up in jail for my nonexistent actions that my ocd brain makes me want to believe are real! 😢

Keep this in mind: OCD has to feel real. If it did not feel real, then I would not have a job!! If it did not feel real, you would not care about the thoughts or images or urges. So, yes, it feels very real. But feeling real and being real and two very different things. I know how convincing OCD is - but it is just like a virtual reality. VR can feel real, but it is not real. If you can work on seeing OCD like a VR, it can be scary, but there is nothing to be scared of. If you want to get help with learning that, we at NOCD are here to serve. Hit the therapy button on the app and we can get you started with a free 15 minute call to our team to get you set up with a well trained therapist. We hope that you take advantage of all the help that is available!

Yes, especially cause most of my false memories is based of real events where I was sick or tired so I don’t remember much from it. OCD loves to dominate those moments and create super realistic memories from it

I’ve dealt with this for the past 3 years. I’ve never experienced as much pain in my life as I do living with false memory ocd. I’ve had contamination, health, Magical thinking ocd but false memory is the worst of the worst. I’m convinced they’re real memories not false and I have in fact molested people and raped people and I know I’ve done it but no one believes me but I know what I’ve done and I don’t think I can keep going for much longer with these thoughts.. this is hell on earth
