Phases of Obsessions/Compulsions
I got diagnosed with OCD about a year ago. I feel like some of my obsessions and compulsions change every few months, and once I work through it (which takes a few weeks to a few months), my brain finds a new set of things to obsess over. For example, about a year ago I was googling different mental health symptoms for hours everyday. I would scroll on reddit for hours looking for someone to put my exact feelings into words? idk why… but now, a few months later, I am struggling with repeated scary intrusive thoughts and obsessively checking the locks/behind curtains/checking different rooms.
