OCD 13h

 I realized today that my suspicions of having OCD might actually be real and I’m so overwhelmed but it’s making a lot of things make sense 😵‍💫

Like, apparently having an ADHD and GAD diagnosis as well as potential ASD and C-PTSD wasn’t enough

Exactlyyyy like I’m years into my healing journey already and this just adds to the pile of things I gotta heal 😭 but at least I have the rest of my life to do that so there’s no rush!

One of things thats helped me was realizing that being years into healing means that we probably already healed some of what we were not aware of yet. Getting diagnosed wasnt starting from zero. You just go a clearer picture of what youve been dealing with. Dont see it as extra weight being added to the pile and rather learning whats in and maybe has been in the pile all this time. Its likely always been there and youre just aware of it now.

Omg yes that’s such an amazing way to reframe it, thank you! I have been making a lot of progress in my healing lately, and so this is just one of the many discoveries I’ve made over the past month. It’s not a sign of more work to do, it’s a sign that the work I’m doing is working!
