Venting Small win but feeling good

[party?]

I deal a lot with overthinking to the point that its just plain bizarre to others. I'll be taken away by someone over something silly i said, I made someone mad because i stared at them for too long and now they'll hack my devices and ruin my life or just torture me to death altogether.
Something similar happened today. I felt like i stared at someone for too long and the usual paranoia overtook me but i got over it within an hour or two which is nothing compared to a month or two.
I know this is pretty insignificant to most but for someone who's entire life is torture because of this neurotic tendencies of mine, i feel quite proud of myself :) I think i can finally get some professional help this upcoming summer so looking forward to that though a part of me is terrified. So much could go wrong my mind thinks. But worth a try i guess.
Have a good day ya'll <3

btw, do you feel that this could potentially be OCD of some kind? no idea, just throwing things out there. hope things heal better. best of luck.

someone I know does have OCD and he did once tell me that i have the same issues he did and it could be that. My mom too has such issues she told me. So potentially yes it could be that. I hope to get some diagnoses soon.

Happy for you!

Nothing is insignificant if it is significant in your mind. That's all that matters.
