oh boy i am over 124 days late to this post but i needed this i’ve had ocd since i was 2 according to my family but because of so many complications getting with somebody of authority to diagnose me i wasn’t diagnosed until i was 18 this led to me having 16 years of untreated illness which essentially multiplied and got worse and worse beyond repairable it seems i suffer from a lot of false memories and have made some regrettable mistakes in my teens that made it so much worse every day i see myself as some monster and having pure o fill my head with believable thoughts and i always have to tell myself that “the fact that i’m feeling guilty at all proves i am not the monster i am associating myself with” and because of ocd i could never fully believe myself   i may be 124 days late to this post but seeing this right here helped me beyond imagination thank you so much
