  • That I indeed have OCD.
  • That I indeed have a form of social anxiety/ agoraphobia.
  • That some things from the past still worries me despite thinking it would not.
  • I quickly get into negative thoughts and learnt how to slowly but steadily change that.
  • That I was afraid of admitting that certain things from the past were indeed someone else’s fault and not my own (I never wanted to be the kind of person that point fingers to others).

And a couple of other things but these were the main ones.

    What sort of OCD if you don't mind me asking?

    Checking OCD. I keep checking whether things such as lights, doors are closed or the water tab, oven/ furnace are turned off. At some point it took 1-1.5 hours off my time before being able to go to bed and even then it occupied my mind. Went so far to make photo's and video's as 'evidence' but eventually that did not do the trick either.
