u/Mental-Builder-8212

i’ve been dealing with these problems for around a year now they started like august last 2025 and it was kinda weird like it started with needing to go to the toilet every time i’d go in my room, leave my room, go upstairs/ downstairs before the shower after the shower, then that faded then this was in august is when it got noticeable i’d get around 3-4 showers a day bc i’d randomly just get a weird feeling in my chest lik something was wrong

previous to this id already had a lot of intrusive thoughts but never really actions, then after the showering came washing my hands, then came with my feet too, then my srms, then my face, then my calves and then my thighs, and i couldn’t like go lay in my bed without doing it bc then it felt like my bed wasn’t clean and my bed is the one safe space i’ve got

them it got a lot worse, draining worse, im 15 and i live in the uk so im coming up to having my gcse’s and i’ve been struggling with school a LOT, like my motivation for everything has gone and then came the hand washing which increased to like just washing over and over until i felt rigjt which would lead to my back aching reallt bad and my feet bc i stand like hunched over the sink to avoid touching anything

even mh showers have to follow a routine now and it does sort of include numbers like 3 or 5 are the numbers i like to stick to, 3 5 and 20. but showers became so draining bc id use over half a bottle of soap, my mum would go mental at me but i can’t tell her what’s wrong with me ive tried and she just like says it’s nothing she’s a really good mother don’t get me wrong but things to do with mental health she’s just not very idk understanding towards

right now i’m at a sort of ok period but soon enough it may spike especially as im going into year 11 meaning ill be under exam stress

another question i wanted to ask is what age do u have to be to like go get a diagnosis for something like ocd without them having to get ur parents consent, ive been trying to just hold out until i turn 18, but when its bad its genuinely horrifyingly bad like scary bad, and only one person reallt knows how bad it is but shes my age so she cant really help

when i tell u how bad i miss soft launch words can’t describe it genuinely what even is pipsqueak 2..

i used to use pipsqueak before the new update and it was one of my favs bc of the way it wrote so why tf did they go and ruin it

the app is falling apart and for what bc i KNOW nobody asked them to remove all the bot models just for non paying users to have 2 models that genuinely suck more than anything if i wanted to speak to chatgpt ID GO TO CHATGPTTTTUGH

anyways bring back the old models soft launch me and the kids miss u sweetie come home soon

i genuinelt have no idea why the bots are so bad now but like there’s not an inch of dialogue and it’s constantly getting filtered is there any way to fix it bc i miss the bots.m bruh

i’m on an iphone and i wanna get into reading but id prefer what i read off to be an app rather than a website are there any pirating apps on iphone that have a wide library or that i can put things onto
