Need Advice
I just want to say I’m 15 and have been dealing with severe ocd symptoms for almost 5 years now. I know this is not the right sub reddit to be posting on but r/OCD wouldn’t let me post so i’m asking for advice here. I’m not going to crisis dump or share any compulsions because i know it can be triggering but i really need some advice. (feel free to delete this post, idk how reddit works.) Anyways ive gotten a lot better with dealing with my ocd and overcoming it but i’ve recently realized i’ve been doing compulsions without noticing and ive started to struggle with a really debilitating kind of ocd i’ve dealt with before and took me months-years to recover from. I’m trying to get over it but it’s really hard and I was wondering if anyone has any tips on how to get over it faster because it’s really starting to affect my life more and more. I won’t go into detail for your guys sake but it’s always on my mind and i feel really sick giving into compulsions. I really feel like i should tell my parents but i don’t know what getting real help looks like and i’m scared. I know getting medicated can be a long process but i just can’t stand what Im feeling right now. I’m dealing with it on my own right now but it’s really hard to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Sorry if i violated any rules, i just don’t know what to do right now. Thanks. I hope this doesn’t get flagged again lol
