34F separated mum. I've had OCD since my teens.

As a kid I was severely bullied at 🏫. My mum overprotected me , my father quite absent and authoritary. Very sensitive and self-demanding person, I've mostly attracted toxic relationships with men throughout my life. At 18 I had a severe depression, my mum has always been raising me up when Ive fallen into this dwell.

I've long struggled with OCD concerning mostly fear of brain tumor for bad migraines and the typical 🌈 migraine auras. After a very psychedelic aura I had MRI. I've also had like heat waves migraine auras on daily basis, but the colourful arches ones really freak me out. I know it's nothing but OCD doesn't buy it and makes me suffer a lot. Nevertheless, sport and socialising witj other mums is really helping me out, as well as doing plans alone with my kid 😊🧒🏻.

Nevertheless, Im still at my parents (my son is 4): but have a private flat on the same house, but we share spaces.

The thing is: my mother might be starting an early alzheimer... And Ive been quite depressed-ocd activated with the colourful auras for a few months... I think it's comprehensible since she's like the pillar for my mental health breakdowns I feel I might be losing, but it's a golden opportunity to stand on my own feet xor the first time in my life (well this I see it only in good moments🌱✨, not when ocd depressive feelings ruin my day...)

Anyone with OCD depression comorbidity?

Thank you in advance ✨✨✨
