Recently, I watched Secret life of lele pons and she said she had OCD. I searched it up and realised I was getting symptoms since I was six. I remember when it was time to go to and I felt like I had to pray and when I forgot I couldn't sleep because I thought God will punish me. Now it is getting worse everytime I hear a loud noise I scream . Everytime at school i feel like there is someone in my mind telling me that this person is gossiping about you or this boy thinks your weird and when i get home i feel like they are telling me , you are lesbian, or you need to do bad things. I'm 10 and its getting worse I want to tell my parents but I'm to scared. I need help.
I know how scary that can feel. I’m sorry you are feeling that way. sometimes we hear or read about other people and their symptoms but that does not in anyway mean that you have the same thing.
anxiety can make us believe things that are not true. we might think we know what somebody else is thinking but we actually don’t.
Its A good idea to let your parents know how you are feeling. They are there to help you in any way.
this is not your fault! These things happen to many people and it’s very common. But you can get help with this and first start with letting your parents know how you are feeling .you can also talk to a counselor at school. They cannot tell anybody what you have told them. So don’t worry about that.
you will feel much better when you talk about it because holding it all inside makes us feel so much worse. just open up to them and tell them what you said on here.
you are going to be OK! I’m sure your parents would want to help you. and you deserve to get the support that you need!
Take care
