I have OCD and this is actually so realistic.

8:40 my OCD got triggered there why couldn’t he just walk all the way back to where the stairs meet go back then walk up the stairs not just go past it then go up please do it in the other side😭😭😭😭

Ok. I have OCD. Mine is religous OCD. I attended therapy for years and this year I spent 4 months going to a treatment center daily. I know about the cycle and what breaks it. But I don't get this video. I want to know what the obsessions or intrusive thoughts are here. Or is the obsession kept silent and it's only showing the compulsions? I'm just not liking all the comments I'm reading because I think people still don't get what it is by watching this video.

I have ocd and it's not like this to m3

Social Network addiction isn’t OCD

This definitely did NOT make me cry

I don't have ocd, but I'm autistic and I can relate to a lot of aspects of this video, especially when I'm overstimulated. thank you for sharing :3

Triforce of courage be with you!

I do the side walk thing

i got pultion ocd its rlly bad i hope this makes people understand how hard ocd is for us

Accurate hell.

This is terrifyingly accurate. That inner monologuing sounding like its checking things off a chart, the checking things and worrying i forgot something everyday. The cracks. Maybe its a stretch but but this guy was living a day in my shoes

That flash scared me a little

As someone with OCD, (DIAGNOSED) I would watch a full movie of this

One of the most realistic OCD videos I've seen - thank you :)

I have a lot of these thought paterns but I am not so routine oriented but I have to pray around a hundred times a day and ask forgiveness for minor things and I have many intrusive sexual and violent thoughts

I was diagnosed with the OCD a while back. I don’t know if I still have it I probably don’t but this is not what it looks like

The beeping noises are so accurate it’s terrifying

This is me all day every day. I don't finish tests because I colour in my numbers, I erase everything when I do something wrong and start my test from scratch. I'm always late because I'm crying while trying pacing back and forth my room until I feel ok. Thoughts keep coming into my mind telling me to redo something or try again. It's torture. I have to randomly touch people's school bags, which make convos hella awkward. I have these compulsions where the whole world is one memory game, and I'm constantly losing no matter how much I try to remember. It just makes everything really annoying and hard. Won't even get into how ADHD comes into play with this. Remember OCD is a form of anxiety, a stress that can only be released with compulsions. It was amazing to see this as an inside to my every day life. Masterpiece, keep it up! Have a good day anyone (if they do) read this. :)

great now everyone thinks they have OCD cause they related to some parts of this video

He missed a red car! About 4:20. My OCD was worried for his OCD! When I was younger it was sooooo hard to fight the physical rules. Feels like as I got older the rules got more mental. Easier to hide but ugh. Brain is at war. But it's sad thinking how my "rules" would be different. 21 is never a good number. And def not 6, are you crazy? I always touch the pole, the wall, the anything passing by. Usually enter from the left side. Different numbers for looking both ways and doors. Esp the car door. Brain always tells me the car will be broken into, roll away, catch fire. Exhausting.

With someone with OCD from a young age this is pretty accurate I do some of these but I also do different like line up all my crayons from lightest to darkest and I notice which one is missing but he's doing a great job

I got diagnosed with inattentive adhd but this is looking scarily familiar...

I’m not sure what feeling he’s trying to show with the colour inversion and the screeching noise, but personally, I get the feeling that there’s bugs under my skin whenever something isn’t to my satisfaction. Some may call it ants in your pants, I don’t really know.

This really helps me understand my OCD better. I’m trying to work on explaining it better to people, specifically to psychiatrists, therapists, and psychologists in general so they understand what mine is like.

I was wondering where the step-counting was but you were quite literally still counting specific things ;-; Honestly I still think this is accurate if OCD actions were voiced out. I definitely thought of most of those words a lot before. I don't think I have OCD tho idk how.

what you're showing here is not just OCD. inaccurate.

Having ocd and panic disorder is torture yet my Dr tells me not to take the anxiety meds everyday

I have ocd, it’s more than just having a clean room. If I drop dust in my cats water bowel by accident while dusting the house I super stressed cause my mind tells me he’s gonna die. If washing my hands doesn’t feel right I have to do it 5 times over to make sure there is no soap left in my finger tips or they start feeling mooshy and weird. I once couldn’t stop saying amen and was freaking out

Does anyone else deal with this sort of compulsion by creating protocols?

I have 5% of wat u have . I feel little frustrated wen i watch this video .lol. But felt good that theres many like me.yah ocd bro

i don’t want to diagnose it HATE to self diagnose, but when i have to repeat tasks over and over again to feel “right” or normal or safe it’s hard to believe i don’t have this, especially when i turn around and feel physically ill if i don’t turn back the way i previously was

im diagnosed with a multitude of severe types of ocd, anxiety, and mdd, this is exactly how i am but with germs, other people touching me, physically hurting someone, and talking/touching people who aren’t my girlfriend. this is a great simulation for those who self diagnose themselves, so they can understand the genuine struggle people like me face

I exactly have this

Bro if you got OCD you aren’t doing this shit. If you were diagnosed with OCD you were treated, and no person that was treated is doing this.

Her standing on that crack had me physically literally tensing up

The cracks in the floor hit close to home.

My OCD will be tell me stuff like “if u don’t do this then this will happen” and sometimes the stuff will actually happen so it messes me up so bad :/ God loves YOU his Son Jesus Christ died for US repent and get a good relationship with God Amen Amen🙏🙏❤️❤️🩷🩷

So accurate

Look like social anxiety

is it alright that maybe we are not quite friends?

OCD ruined so much of my childhood and made me greatly consider suicide, which was funny, because so many of my rituals were done to prevent my own death. I guess I thought that maybe death by my own hand wouldn’t lead to a "cursed" afterlife or something. But really, there's nothing funny about it. Being a broken shell of a human being, restricted by my own mind and constantly repeating, repeating, repeating these meaningless motions so nothing bad would happen to me or anyone around me. All at the ripe age of 9 to 12 years old.

I do not see anything wrong with this behaviour. The guy is grounding in the present.

It’s scary how relatable this is… but I’m glad I have very mild OCD.

What I’m going to say might sound weird to some of you, who knows, but this video depicts pretty well the general mindset that characterizes people who live in the USA. I think that the problems stated in this video are pretty cultural, that’s what I want to mean :)

And remember this is just about the intrusive thoughts, not the tension you feel inside your head and muscles when you are having these thoughts.

That beep is horrifying me😔😔even i suffer from ocd

when you see a red car, you know its bad

My OCD is bad, but not this bad. Normally I get the most tensed up and anxious over the people I see and how I interact with them throughout the day including random pedestrians. I don't really care for objects unless it's my phone, wallet, and keys being in my pockets safe and secure. It would be a total nightmare to lose those.

...I have this and adhd(been professionally diagnosed)...dose my brain ever stfu!? XD I can't believe I get more frustrated with my adhd than my ocd. Bruh.
