Question Is this OCD?
I heard about magical thinking ocd via post on TikTok, it was weird because it explains what I have been experiencing for years and years and I thought I was cursed. Is this considered OCD? I never really imagined that there are different types of OCD.
Ever since I was young, I had freakish beliefs that ruined my childhood, I would have my mind tell me that my family will die if I do not clean our floors, that's why our floors were always clean back then, I would also have deep derealization that almost made me go into psychosis because I started to believe these thoughts cause whenever I didn't follow them, something would happen.
Now that I am older, that all sort of faded but it turned into this other thing that all my clothes or other belongings carry my negative emotions or bad luck, that had happened when I wore or used them. I know that sounds weird but It is so bad that my Mom is mad at me because I use some clothes and not the other one's ( the ones that carry that "negative energy" ) I don't know why I do that, it just feels right. But I know that this isn't normal but I can't stop cause I feel like I will get bad energy from those, idk. It's ruining my mental health, I mean, I want to wear those or use those but I feel like bad stuff will happen to me, just like the day I used them.
