My OCD makes me feel a lot of shame. I never used to worry about myself until my OCD came along but now I really fear OCD. Sometimes I have thoughts that I’m not me and that stresses me. I feel so uncomfortable with this fear. I have such a bad image of myself now because of my OCD. I wish I could accept it. I just don’t understand why I have this fear. I just want to accept myself.
