imagine having moral ocd and having half of tumblr ranting about people who enjoy problematic media being literal fascists and the other half ranting about people enjoying media critically being "fucking puritans/supporting purity culture" and "pretentious/comdescendent"

not to be mean, but if you've never had a restrictive ed or bdd then maybe just stop talking about body checking? 90% of the time you lot have no clue what you're talking about, and as someone who's struggled with those issues a majority of my life, the misinformation it spreads can be really damaging to people who are sick regardless of their recovery status.
(please read op tags before you decide to argue, thanks)
#tw ed mention#tw body checking mention#like this isn't a ''thinphobia exists'' post- it doesn't- this is stop treating a symptom of a mental health issue as a gottcha & misrepres#-enting what that behaviour actually is and why people do that.#and i promise you even if someone is body checking like. a) they know nobody needs to be told ''hey op this is body checking''#you can find yourself doing it unintentionally if you're just like existing yeah but like even then when you catch yourself you know that's#what you were doing. and b) any attention beyond ''this is not fair to expose other potentially sick people to'' is just feeding into the#disorder. like attention to the disorder- positive or negative- is seen as validation. it's oh look it's working i'm sick i'm sick*enough*#so like you aren't doing what you think you are doing at all.#idk i feel like a lot of people forget that a) not all eds are restrictive & b) they are a literal mental health condition. they are not a#choice. they often have very little to do with weight at their core. in the case of restrictive eds it is about the fact that you feel#your body is the ONLY thing in your life you can control (with some very dark shit often being the reason for that) and that get's#projected onto control of one's weight. my guess is because that's the most visible display of control. it is a front to mask some sort of#pain that usually ends up being related to trauma. and people of ANY WEIGHT can have a restrictive ed.#and like the same is true of other eds that aren't about restriction- it is rooted in unhealthy emotional coping mechanisms due to HURT#and like. as for bdd which also tends to be misrepresented and have shit slung at it for fuckin whatever reason#please consider a) anyone at any size can have bdd about any feature & b) it's literally and obssesive compulsive disorder (with body check#-ing being the compulsive behaviour for some but not all people) and it has been shown that the way we process our faces & features on a#neurological level is different from those who do not have bdd. and if you listen to any person with bdd they more often than not only have#an issue with their ''problem feature'' ON THEMSELF meaning whatever you want to call it- it's internalized#and even then people don't just wake up and decide every mirror is going to make them feel like they are in a funhouse. though no one#knows what causes it for certain- it is believed to be rooted in genetics comorbid conditions traumatic early life experiences or some#combo thereof. people don't choose it they don't choose which feature it latches onto they don't choose the distress it causes.#set the boundaries you have to set irt your own mental health. that is more than fine. but the moralizing of mental disorders is never#going to help anyone and i have seen a huge uptick of people who do not understand eds not only leaving non restrictive eds out entirley#but acting morally superior on the basis of never having experienced one or never having dealt with bdd or leaving people who don't fit the#prototypical view of what a sufferer of those conditions looks like out without thought.#and again- i want to emphasize- in my experience more often than not it is ppl who admit to having NO EXPERIENCE in that realm.#ableism#mental health

Advice on how to deal with OCD
As someone who used to struggle with OCD but doesn't anymore (although I still have some tendencies), I learnt some ways to not let the obssesive thoughts and compulsions control you. It can be a slow process, but it's worth it.
Obviously, I'm just recommending stuff that worked for me, but it might not work for others. This is just advice based on my own experiences.
The more time you spend thinking/doing your compulsions and obssesions, the worse it gets. The satisfaction is only temporary and it will last for a few seconds before you'll start feeling anxious again.
The path to stop letting OCD control your life can be a slow process, so don't expect to see immediate progress. I know it can seem frustrating to not see fast results, but believe me, you'll eventually forget about all your compulsions and obssesions.
A good way to start to get better is to slowly try to avoid doing your compulsions as intensely as you used to do them. That doesn't mean you should expose yourself to your worst fears. Your start can be something small and less threatening.
A good way to forget about your compulsions and obssesions is to distract yourself with something else. Personally, I recommend doing something that forces you to pay attention to your surroundings rather than your own mind. Some examples would be watching movies, doing exercise, playing an instrument, etc

OCD fidgets
so i like the fidget pad mines in green but i don’t like clicky buttons. 2 don’t work on mine which i like but i do like some features.
 https://www.amazon.com/Pieces-Fidget-Controller-Stress-Suitable/dp/B07YXZKT3H/ref=sr_1_39?dchild=1&keywords=fidget+pad&qid=1612881104&sr=8-39 
i wanted to try this one out bigger but it has three and and is in the color green.
 things. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08G8Y37KG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 
i don’t like the fidget cubes and deffitly not the 12 sided one. to bulgy and distracting and to much noise. 
i have trubble with things like spikey balls, and things i can’t clean with wipes.
i did wanna try these types 
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08V8T5P1G/ref=nav_timeline_asin?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08VDH1QXB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
i honestly didn’t like dimple because of the brain it gave my fingers trubble with simulation so i’m hoping these don’t have prints. these are from Malaysia ( didn’t realize when ordering but are gonna take a week or so so it should be safe)
i also wanted one of these  they can hold up to 300 pounds. also check the age range when buying. iv used it before for wiggling and moving.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RG66NFB/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
i’m gonna link their store because they have many other wiggly stuff to that might help someone. 
https://www.amazon.com/stores/Bouncy+Bands/page/24D456FC-6095-4829-8AB2-5C568608A717?ref_=ast_bln
i also ordered these because fidget spinner aren’t my thing and wanted to try these out. 
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MYCCS49/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1
tangles sometimes work for me but i don’t like the clacking they make that drags attention towards me. they work if ii wear jeans and can attach it to the belt area and just carry it with me.
i will update you all on how these work for me once here.

Not to cry for the Devil or anything, but I think Horde Prime might actually be at peace now? Like, I can't even imagine what pain and stress 100 000+ years of existing in a state of constant physical degredation while also being so obssesively narcissistic and perfectionist as to have to compulsively micro manage literally everything around you until its all just you.
He's at peace because he doesn't exist anymore.
Turbo dead.
Just so dead.
Soul? Gone
Good riddance too he killed my son. (my son got better admittedly but still)

Hello to the random person on the internet who will read this, I hope you have a good day/night/whenever, and I would just like to share something I'm really happy and proud about ^-^
I suffer from symptoms of OCD (undiagnosed, but man i'll be darned if i don't actually have it with all the trouble it's been giving me), and it's mostly mantra stuff (saying a specific line/statement over and over for a specific amount of tines) and sensorimotor stuff (e.g. having to blink or exhale a specifc number of times, usually four) and they're triggered by certain stuff.
So I am soooo happy to be able to say that it's been well over a month since I was able to fight one of the biggest triggers of my rituals (having to look at specific objects/words, not gonna specify what exactly tho) and I. feel. so. much. more. free :-)
There's such a great feeling of liberty when you break that cycle of obssesive thoughts and compulsions. Life becomes so much easier, and it feels slightly better to go about your daily routines.
It's very much not easy to defeat it, don't sweat it. OCD sucks, and even now, over a month later, it still tempts me to do these rituals all over again. But I am stronger than these irrational thoughts. We all are.
If you are suffering too, I challenge you to break the darn cycle. It won't be easy, for sure. It took me nearly three years to break that one trigger and even so I still have a bunch of other triggers that conciously and unconciously affect my lifestyle. Yes, I am also trying to battle them, but at the same time, I think I deserve the right to celebrate a little bit ^-^
Defeat your compulsions, guys. Trade a few days of anxiety and discomfort for a lifetime of freedom and triumph.
I believe in y'all! <3

I been overthinking a lot about my sexual orientation (im obssesive) and i feel so confused about it. I dont know if i like guys more or is compulsive heterosexuality bc the mayority of times im with guys i really dont like them... And even if i dont i still hanging with them. With girls is like no sexual atracction at first but i dont know where my sexual orientation is SO conditioned to heteronormativity. I feel very anxious and sad bc i been identifying as queer-bisexual since i was 13... This not being actually me would make me very sad bc it would be like Living in a lie. Also my anxiety and obssesive tendencies make this WORST. There's a voice that has been saying to me since january that im not queer so kfkdkfkdkd yep ugh my mind.
