Hoping this will show others they are not alone and talking can and will help. Mental health is a lonely place but it doesn't have to be!
I call my ocd by a name to separate it from me. Not matter how many times people told me the thoughts were irrational and not real I couldn't help thinking there must be some truth to them as they are my thoughts. I can now separate them as something else which has 1/2
Helped me massively. But now I need to change it's name for peronal resons, tbh I never thought it fit properly anyway. So it is now called Daymon which I think suits it!

Need your help! Work have sent an email about autism acceptance week today with a link to a physiologist who knows about autism. Suggest some #actuallyautistic advocates I can tell her about rather than an neurotypical with a phd, also which do you prefer 👇🏻

4 votes • Final resultsDoggo was terrified of the fireworks so is now in my bed finally settled! Daria has always put a stop to me even getting in bed without cleaning my feet! My protection of the doggo has shut up #ocd, for now anyway
Staying in watching telly this new years, same as every other NYs tbh just feel shitty with bloody covid this time 🤒
What ever you're doing have a good one and if NYs isn't your thing it's just one day that turns into another like every other. Wishing you all good mental health!
Its taken this long but looks highly likely I've got covid 😒 thankfully just feel like I've got a bad cold but normally when ill Daria is strong and loud yet I've had the erge to clean my room! Doing in small stages but actually doing it and only quiet thoughts!🤷🏻♀️ #ocd
I love Christmas but the anxiety of loss of people in the same place, noisy kids, adults stressing over cooking, having to suppress sensory overloads and meltdowns, change of routine, unexpected things this is an #autistics Christmas #anxiety
Thank god for the dogs!!

I take 2 sertraline a day and 2 propranolol 3 times a day and without them and cbt, especially the sertraline I wouldn't be here today. Never wanted to take meds due to stigma but so glad I did.

Had another "training" at work about making autistics not autistic, they even said to "teach" autistics to give eye contact! I'm getting closer and closer to saying I'll do autism insight, they won't like it but it'll be a lot better than this abusive shit!

Well done British media there wasn't a fuel shortage but there is now. I can't get any so how am I to get to work as a sen lsa & carer?????
Before anyone even mentions public transport my contamination ocd puts a stop to that!! 😡
So sad! My thoughts are with her loved ones ❤ #cancersucks

I never really understand when a celebrity death impacts on people as only a few have on me and the sad news of Sean Lock has. He was a brilliant comedian, cats does countdown won’t be the same. My thoughts are with his family and friends.
Dog sniffed a caterpillar & now Daria is telling me he licked it & will die. I image searched it & it was an elephant hawk moth caterpillar which are harmless to people and pets yet still seeking reassurance from searches because the thoughts are still there.

Saw this on my fb earlier as a friend commented on it. Had to share a explain why this ISN'T OCD and what OCD really is. I'm shaking with rage from it 🤬
If only OCD was as simple as this!

ALT Reads OCD PEOPLE: YOU HAVE 4 EGGS REMAINING. WHICH IS CORRECT? Below is four photos of four eggs arranged diffently in each egg container.

Daria has been on form and loud today and I wondered why they've managed to get through and realised I haven't taken my meds for about a week 🙃 That'll be why!
Safe to say I'll be taking them tonight

Two panic attacks averted yesterday thanks to my grounding box and @MindBoxChange. So nice to be able to over come and re join my sisters wedding rather than have it ruined by multiple panic attacks like the last wedding I was at!
Having one of those days where I'm fine if left on my own but anyone talks to me I'm then annoyed (think it's due to lack of sleep) but now my mums picked up something of mine I put on a window sill ages ago for an #OCD reason but can't remember why so even more annoyed she
